  1. That's some pretty significant hyperbole you got going there.
  2. fWar is generally considered a superior statistic for that specific reason. @sk
  3. Hanley was projected to get 6/137. 4/88 is a bargain by comparison.
  4. Cespedes +, but yes.
  5. Nope. Porcello's not consistent enough to warrant Cespedes.
  6. Betts Pedroia Ortiz Hanley Panda Napoli Bogaerts Vasquez Castillo
  7. Why not use the last four seasons? Oh right, because his absolute best defensive season was 2011, and the worse was 2013. Quite convenient. His career UZR/150 is 2.2, which is, you guessed it, above average.
  8. Well if what he says is true, then he should be packing his bags.
  9. As i posted in another thread, apparently he whined about ownership and was traded to prove a point (per Josh Reddick). And also, that's actually quite a haul for Donaldson all things considered
  10. I see what you did there.
  11. Sandoval is an above-average defender. Stick to the facts, obnoxious Yankee fan. How his offense plays out, who knows? As for Hanley, talk all the s*** you want, you'd love to have that bat on your team. Also, part of the reason they actually accepted his advances (he appproached the Sox, not the other way around) is because he idolizes Papi and they think that will help with his attitude. How that will play out, nobody knows. We know it's your scthick to be an ******* about anything regarding the Sox, but come on.
  12. Word around Twitter is that Donaldson complained about the A's cheap ways and was immediately traded. There's a tweet going around by our good friend Josh Reddick that reads: "Not surprised, Donaldson spoke the truth about ownership and then traded."
  13. Blue Jays just got Josh Donaldson. Holy cow.
  14. That's one of the biggest leaps of logic i've ever seen presented in this website.
  15. What does this even mean? This makes no sense.
  16. http://i.qkme.me/3qrk9w.jpg
  17. Actually, you're right on the money, as you are with pretty much everything not Nava related Bellhorn.
  18. But then getting bad seasons from almost everyone in the roster and a heaping of injuries to boot is the same thing in the opposite direction.
  19. If you don't think 2012 and 2014 were aberrations taking into account the FO's entire body and work and overall bad luck involved in both trainwrecks (especially 2012) then you don't know what the word aberration means and should stop using it.
  20. Also, sample sizes.
  21. Specifically Papi, who has always been his idol.
  22. That would still keep Nava as part of a platoon, which is my point. He's great against RHP, although his overall impact is mitigated by his defensive shortcomings.
  23. If the Sox trade Betts or Bogaerts for a year of any starter, then soon enough 2012 and 2014 won't be aberrations, they'll be the norm. You can't trade away projectable, controllable talent for one-year rentals and expect to contend consistently in today's baseball landscape/economy.
  24. We get that you like Nava, but he's just not starter material. He still has the horrible splits, and his defense hasn't really improved as much as you say.
  25. Shelby Miller is no longer a prospect. He's an established MLB starter.
