    So did anyone else hear that Ellsbury changed his stance to generate more power?
  3. SoxFanForsyth
    Whaddya mean, "you people"?!?
  4. SoxFanForsyth
    Why don't you do some research before you make those statements. He's top 5 in the AL in each of the past 8 years, and he's well above average in each of those years too.
  5. SoxFanForsyth
    Wow. Thank God. That's about as lucky as you can get right there.
  6. SoxFanForsyth
    Catching has sucked for the past 8 years in the AL overall. The average OPS in the AL over the past 8 years has been .716, and Salty's .771 OPS would rank in the top 5 of all AL catchers with at least 375 PA in every one of those years. It's just not an offensive position.
  7. SoxFanForsyth
    Reminds me of Lowrie at the start of the season. Hopefully he can stay healthy.
  8. SoxFanForsyth
    Yup. Making up for a little lost time.
  9. SoxFanForsyth
    You don't compare catchers with RF or 1B. It's a different position. It's not an offensive position. A stud hitting catcher is probably the rarest commodity in baseball. By your logic, then, everyone is replaceable.
  10. SoxFanForsyth
    Catching is not an offensive position. Just like SS isn't. As an overall hitter, no he's not a great hitter. As a Catcher, he's a top hitter in the AL.

    You forgot Theo's job. It would cost Theo's job if he traded Ranaudo for 2 months of Beltran plus no comp picks. The idea of this makes me vomit in my mouth.
  12. SoxFanForsyth
    I can agree with this, and with a700 about the shoulder. I thought the implication was that the derby jacked up his swing.
  13. SoxFanForsyth
    Cherry picking stats? Like what, OPS?? How the hell am I cherry picking stats?? And yeah, I required 200 PA to judge the catchers, that way you don't have Jose Molina who is OPS'ing .831 over 103 AB coming in and looking better because of a SSS. Tell me. Who do you replace Salty with?
  14. SoxFanForsyth
    The AL Average Catcher is hitting .236/.307/.377/.684 Saltalamacchia is hitting .249/.320/.451/.771. But he stinks and he's not a top 3 catcher in the AL. For all Catchers with at least 200 PA: Avila: .865 OPS Santana: .784 OPS Salty: .771 OPS Wieters: .762 OPS Pierzynski: .713 OPS Martin: .695 OPS Arencepia: .681 Torrealba: .666 Treanor: .665 Suzuki: .640 Jaso: .639 Olivo: .628 Oh, and Mauer has a . 700 OPS this season But Salty stinks and he's replaceable. Hmmm....that makes sense....
  15. SoxFanForsyth
    This is laughable. Avila and Santana, I'll give you. Weiters and Salty are about a wash. Clearly you have forgotten how horrible Victor is at throwing people out. Mauer is looking to change position because of his knees. Pierzynski. Oh my God. You said Pierzynski. This is a joke, right? You like that .379 SLG%? Bahahaha. Dude. Salty is a better catcher for 2011 going forward than all but 2 of those. Pierzynski. LMAO.
  16. SoxFanForsyth
    Come on man, the derby doesn't do anything to your swing.
  17. SoxFanForsyth
    That's more like it Gonzo!
  18. SoxFanForsyth
    You're ridiculous. He's a top 3 catcher in the AL. You give me 3 better catchers in the AL. Out of all catchers in the AL with at least 200 PA, he's 3rd in OPS.
  19. SoxFanForsyth
    Just get some baserunners. Lets go.
  20. SoxFanForsyth
    Well. Rays just scored a go ahead run. :dunno:
  21. SoxFanForsyth
    f***!
  22. SoxFanForsyth
    Damn. Gonzo is on freaking struggle street hardcore right now.
  23. SoxFanForsyth
  24. SoxFanForsyth
    Good s*** tonight. Good s***. Crawford gets 2 knocks and a couple RBI, Pedroia looks like the beast he is, Sox come from behind twice and put up 15 runs with no production from Gonzo and with Ortiz out of the line up. Great win. Go Rays!
  25. SoxFanForsyth
    I really like Franklin Morales. What a find by Theo. I can't believe, as bad as the Yankees need a LHP out of the bullpen, they didn't get him. He came for a PTBNL to Theo, and since joining the Red Sox, he's posted a 2.16 ERA.
