  1. Hanley at SS is just a terrible idea.
  2. Still need a #1, and /offseason.
  3. We signed Masterson. Innings-eaters all over the place.
  4. Holy s***. In Ben we trust.
  5. This is actually a pretty damn good post.
  6. You mean sign, and i agree.
  7. But you shouldn't be surprised to see them trade for two, then sign two. Maybe one of the signees won't be a #2, but they definitely need a #1.
  8. #3 and #4 are settled. Still need an ace and a decent #2. Trust the mammaries.
  9. No love lost from me for Hamels. Shields and Latos for me.
  10. Your use of a different WAR (whichever one is lowest depending on your argument) makes me not wanna give a s*** about anything else you say, but i'll bite. Miley has a much better track record than his 2014, and obviously than Rubby (who i still hate to see go, and whom you've been s***ing on for a while now, saying he's clearly a reliever). I'd feel much better arguing about these subjects with you if you didn't move the goalposts to be an annoying negative nelly with anything regarding the Sox.
  11. That's what we always think until the season actually gets underway and someone inevitably gets hurt.
  12. ...unless they decide to keep him and he bounces back. Waaaaaaay too early to tell.
  13. Not a done deal according to Dave Stewart though.
  14. 1.7 WAR, in a ballpark that actually has a higher HR factor than Fenway. But why do research......
  15. Left field. Dude's a very good athlete and if Manny could play LF, so can he.
  16. High BABIP, low LOB%, good peripherals, career 3.79 ERA. That's what they see.
  17. No it isn't. Power and offensive production are at a premium, and Ramirez can flat out hit. If you wana point the finger at a stupid contract, point it at Panda.
  18. This is why i like you.
  19. Miley's a good get imo.
  20. That's his secret......he's always butthurt.
  21. If he's going to be 3 or 4 and comes cheap, it's a decent move as he's topped 200 IP the last two seasons. If he's supposed to be 1 or 2, we're in trouble.
  22. In my post, i noted that they were both roughly league-average over their careers, but that Masterson was more consistent in his provision on innings. The health concerns are well-founded though. Ditto on Latos, but out of the three, Latos and Masterson have better stuff and peripherals.
  23. That's what i always say.
  24. I think you're confusing their typical MO of assigning a value to a player and not budging and their overall flexibility.If we go by what Henry said, they've got money to burn if they need to.
  25. I'm not saying you can't, you can do whatever you want. The problem is that one-year performances will never trump career numbers unless you're looking at special circumstances. The Masterson health concerns are valid, but many in the industry believe he's past them and he's been way more consistent. As you say though, arguments are subjective, so let's agree to disagree.
