BTW I never argued that Kalish or Lavernway were better ranked than Montero.
-
This deal was straight up, wasn't it?. IMO they needed pitching, pitching, pitching, maybe more than us. They do not need more bats. Now, they are a quite much balanced team. We? I wouldn't call that way thus far. They got Martin. Montero would have taken a back up role next year. Will they regret about this in the future? As I said, Maybe yes, maybe no, regardless they always have a broad wallet.

+1. This is not a good Friday Fred.

They must win every season. They usually put an elite team every season. With these moves (Kuroda and Pineda), today, they are the #1 candidate to win the ALE. Is he Cano caliber bat? Maybe yes, maybe no. He is still a promise. A great one BTW, but a promise. I'm not that surprised about this. I would give up Lavarnway or Kalish for Pineda in a heartbeat.

I hate to say it, but this is damn true. Ben better wake up and right away, Unless Pumpsie's prophesy is in effect.

Next season will be 2 wild cards, right?.... right? :dunno:

Wow! I just came back from the gym and the damn Yankees got Pineda and Kuroda just like that? Benny, Benny...
-
pffff... I would have preferred Kuroda over Oswalt. C'mon Ben, wake up!

Ben, time to pull the trigger!
-
Call me crazy but if mind-healthy, he could be a good depth arm.
-
I said this early. BV could help us a lot in this regard. He needs to change the chip to the players. The Players need to leave behind bad practices and attitudes. If we don't bring the pitcher(s), this factor can play to our favor or against us, again.

My bad, then... No problem.

The idea is go to Boston in July and in August to Napa. Is it a good month to go to Napa and taste wine? BTW Cozumel is awesome, I have some friends in Quintanarro (Cancun, Cozumel, Chetumal, etc.)

My bad Pumpsie! I meant you. I really appreciate your hospitality. You are very kind . I'll let you know when We go. We have planned this trip for years, but for different reasons we haven't gone. Hopefully this is the year. BTW you are very welcome as well to my home in Monterrey, Mex. EDIT. Fred could join us, LA is not that far, is it?
-
Nahhh UN?. You could think that I'm against Theo or that I hate him, I don't. I have given him credit for what he achieved but IMO, It was time to move on, look at the recent years. The last collapse was only the cherry on the cake. I would have liked Friedman as GM. IMO he has been the best in that department in the recent years. IMO He could have given you the best of both worlds, good farm, good trades/FA signings. Hopefully Ben shows great skills as GM. We'll see.
-
Sure, everyone is welcome! :thumbsup:

This is a good point. Nevertheless you are missining the central point again, which is: in the recent years (3-4 years) TB has been a better team regardless their resources. Friedman and their crew have drafted and developed pretty well their farm, to the point that they have owened us recently. Neither small market team can presume this in the recent years. On the other hand, Boston have failed in both in the recent years, we have made terrible FA signing (some are clogging our payroll, right now) and our farm is not encouraging (I'm not sure where it is ranked in all baseball, I presume that it is not in a good position.), regardless the lack of professionalism, leadership and discipline in the clubhouse. We have failed to the point that a lot of people have walked this offseason which is good for us. Notice that Nobody is taking away Theo's credit before 2008, but was time to move on and point to other horizons. This is basically what I've been saying all offseason long. BL. IMO Friedman >>> Theo in the last 3-4 years amd IMO Friedman has been the best GM in all baseball in the recent years.

f*** the goddamn Yankees, for once and for all go out there and sign Kuroda. :thumbsup:
