  1. 2003-2008 B+ 2009-2011 F Overall C
  2. As always, A700 is accurate about Theo's matter. I wonder why they didn't even try to go after Andrew Friedman... I don't have anything against Cherington, but I would have blown the entire FO and coaching staff and rebuild it from ashes. Anyway... hope that Cherington bring the pieces we need and don't s*** the bed at the FA like Epstein.
  3. You just earned a bottle of tequila compadre! Edit. BTW I just ordered a bottle in this cantina on your behalf :thumbsup:
  4. Exactly. Maybe the wound (2011 pitching) still so fresh to me, but we need this badly. Besides, we already have Kalish and Redick. Again, as I've been saying, reinforce our goddamn pitching staff for once and for all.
  5. Bingo. Pitching, pitching, pitching! That's the name of this 2011-2012 offseason. 1. Bring at least a healthy and solid SP, 2. Sign Papelbon, 3. bring at least 3 proved BP arms and 4. pitching depth for God's sake. That!, should be our priority; then... spend all the money you want in whoever you want. If we do this and If Beckett or someone from our 1-3 SPs gets an injury or underperforms (likely IMO), we'd be kind of "covered", otherwise, be prepare for the same 2011 movie.
  6. IMO We need at least to fill the 4th spot with a healthy, proved and solid SP (+- 4.0 ERA). Then, if we don't bring a SP who fills the 5th spot as well, give the 5th spot to Aceves and occasionally give some starts to Bard and see how could it work. I wouldn't risk two starting spots with Bard (5th) and Aceves (4th).
  7. This is game gentlemen!
  8. I don't know how this gonna end, but this Texas offense is simply ridicoulus.
  9. I'm not sure how a Texas fan feel right now... So close and so far...
  10. I'm not sure, but I have understood that our government don't allow to mix our national symbols with private events like professional sport games, concerts etc. you need a permission first by the government in order to use national symbols (flag, anthemn, emblem-shield, etc.) Now I understand why you do it.
  11. This Is why I love baseball... Whata game... This far to be over ladies and gentlemen.
  12. IMO, I dont see a better closer than him in the 2012 market.
  13. We better sign Papelbon
  14. In Mexico at local professional sport games we don't use to make ceremonies or sing our anthem or something like God bless America. We do it in very special occasions like in international tournaments, I love to hear our anthem specially in the FIFA world cup, I always get goose pimples hehehe
  15. Wow! All this happen? Seems more like a telethon to me than a baseball game.
  16. Unbelievable, these defenses are pathetic today.
  17. This is Saltyboy, right? Well, who would like a player with those numbers in a starting lineup ? He could be a good backup and who knows... maybe in one or two years he probably could take the job. Hell, I would've signed Napoli and Salty as a good backup, but Theo wanted to play moneyball.
  18. Hell, this thread made me want to buy a cigar and prepare a mojito in order to watch maybe the last game of the season... Edit: I just noticed that it is PPD... Anyway I'll go.
  19. Well, I haven't had the opportunity to be in a MLB park (hopefully, next year I will go to Boston) so, I couldn't say, but for what I've watched on Tv, seems like the crew gets a lot of fun. Expirience a baseball game these days at ballparks is not like old days (at least here in Mexico). There are only few parks here where still you can expirience an old days environment, like in my place of birth (Veracruz,Mex). I mean, you find almost the same all people where you use to sit, smoking habanos, drinking mojitos, eating tacos of shrimp or fish with a lot hot sauce btw, filling the baseball scorecards, and mostly talking and expiriencing everything about the game with your friends and the people around while hearing all the sounds that surrounds the game itself. I love that ballpark, is just next to the beach, so you can feel the see-breeze and get a good tan as well (tropical weather) hehehehe . Hell, I miss my place of birth.
