  1. Would you sign Rivera over Papelbon for a 4 year contract these days?
  2. As I said as well, I like Jackson but with a reasonable contract, maybe 1 year and another juicy year option, but no more.
  3. Ohhh... You got me wrong my friend, I meant commit long term contracts in SPs no named Felix, Verlander, Cain, Weaver, etc. I wouldn't commit a lot money and a long term contract in a guy like Jackson, would you? That was the nature of that conversation. Pap is arguably the today's best closer in the game and is only 30.
  4. mmm that is not what I meant, but I'm agree with you.
  5. Maybe he wil be our closer, but IMO he is not ready yet.
  6. If they land David Villa, JH definitely is thinking in big on his soccer team.
  7. What about pitching depth?
  8. What other option do we have? If we don't overspent the damn cap, I don't even see that we could set up a 2012 WS contender team. We have a lot of holes to cover and a ridiculous available budget plus some red flags in our current lineup.
  9. What do you mean with cheap?... I just lost the dimension of that word...
  10. Oh E1 boy... As always you are twisting the things around. Epstain is gone because 3 years of horrible and pathetic results. It is not close to be Pap's case. Last four years... Pap's performance as a closer >>>>Epstain's performance as a GM... Comprendes, Mendez? Hell, you really love Theo Epstain. I knew it, but not this much.
  11. Who the hell cares whether he is Mo. or not. He was the best closer we ever had and now is gone. Cherington (or should I say Luchino?) better is cooking something big beside the manager, Sizemore (who sucks) and Theo's compensation.
  12. Trust me, I really hope. But Pap's case seems to me far to be called a good start. We'll see.
  13. Nahhh... I'm just starting to believe that he is just a puppet.
  14. I'm not sure if Cherington was intrested in Pap's services, BUT... since he tried "to match" Philli's offer my guess is that he was. Said that, and since he didn't make a formal offer, Philli ate his lunch. As you said, Hope that he bring a solid and healthy SP; Plus BP arms, pitching depth, OF and DH. He will need to be creative and tax part of the blame to Theo if we do not set up a solid team.
  15. My question would be... Did Cherington even make a formal offer, or he was just waiting till Philli or someone makes a move in order to match it. If no, Philli ate Cherington's lunch.
  16. ok, my hammer is more than ready just in case If they sign Ortiz or Beltran and bring a name like Jackson and solid BP arms and pitching depth, I'll ease my pain, otherwise as I said the hammer is ready.
  17. The more I hear the more I'm convinced that we should grab Andrew Friedman.... The Phillies ate our lunch again. If NY eats our lunch with the SP or DH as well, I will be an official Cherington's hater.
