  1. I'm just a dick like that.
  2. Don't forget my UZR armor!
  3. We barely completely agree on anything. The only things we always clearly agree on are the common-sense issues that somehow get turned into actual arguments while i shake my head in a combination of amusement and annoyance.
  4. Come to think of it, I should be the King of Talksox!
  5. Experience has very little to do with closing effectiveness. You are arguing for the sake of arguing here anyways.
  6. In the current baseball economy, Pedroia's contract is a relative bargain imo.
  7. That's exactly the point he was trying to make. Furthermore, the 2013 Red Sox had a bunch of question marks and beat a behemoth of a rotation in the form of the Tigers on the way to the WS. No one expected Lester and Lackey to rebound the way they did.
  8. That's the problem a lot of people have with me. They mistake my bluntness with aggression, when honestly, i'm usually laughing at some of the stuff the old timers here come up with. Not Spud though, he's nothing if not consistent and coherent.
  9. But it sure beats flinging s*** at the wall.
  10. You probably are and i'd buy some BBQ sauce to put all over that crow.
  11. You're kidding right? This team's an above average starter and a couple decent relievers away from being the hands-on favorite to win the East.
  12. Hanley's here in Santo Domingo, and he's working out with Papi. I go to an expensive gym here in the city with a friend of mine every other Sunday, and have seen the two of them working out a couple of times.
  13. Good points. Please post more!
  14. You mean like you did in 2012 my dear Fred?
  15. You're arguing something that people aren't actually saying. No one (maybe Kimmi but she's hopeful they'll add another starter iirc) has said they are content with the current rotation. When you throw the idea out there that people are advocating for an idea that doesn't exist, you are creating a type of argument that is usually known as a.....wait for it.....strawman argument.
  16. I actually agree with you to some extent. What i'm saying is to stick to the actual argument.
  17. But that's an approach that absolutely no one on this site has said they are ok with. What has been said is they can start the year with what they have, and retool on the run during the season. Argue what is actually being said.
  18. How are they depending too much on their pitching prospects right now? Also, how do we know they won't add another pitcher (s)? Too many assumptions.
  19. I get your frustration Pal. Some people should just choose a position and stick to it.
  20. Kimmi and the new ones here should also understand that a couple of posters here think they have carte blanche to s*** on everyone (fo, players, other posters) but not be called out on their crap. Just sayin'.
  21. What "kool aid?" What "kool aid" has Cherington offered? No offense, but that is nonsense. Also, the rotation isn't a joke. It's average, which isn't good enough to be a surefire bet to compete, but the negative hyperbole is unnecesary. The reason "some will get angry" is that what you're saying is nonsense.
  22. What load of bull.
  23. If reports are accurate, and Shields can be had for around 100 mill on a five-year deal, the Sox would be crazy not to sign him.
