    No, people like JBJ because both scouts and a significant statistical sample predicted he would a great defensive player (which he is) and an offensive asset ( which he hasn't been). Saying it's because he had a good spring is revisionist history, and dumb at that. And even worse, the guy still doesn't have more than half-a-season in the Majors. I could name 30 guys who are currently productive regulars in MLB who took even more time to settle in at the MLB level.

    There's a difference between appreciating the truth and being a whiny little bitch. Please go on vacation again so the board can be enjoyable again.

    Drew was offered a QO. He was stupid not to take it.

    I don't understand how they got complacent. They had a plan which they have executed, but the results have not been what anyone expected. How does that equal complacency?

    Can Fred please go on vacation again? He's ruining the Talksox experience for me.

    Apparently Jacko knows more about the team's MO with prospects than the team itself.

    Although the losing pisses me off, they essentially did exactly what i wanted them to do (although late with the Drew signing). I am more than willing to let this team sink-or-swim in preparation for a sustained run of success.

    I've mostly switched to scotch due to health concerns.

    I see the hindsight machine is working full throttle around here, as usual.

    This team is driving me to alcoholism. Oy vey.

    Fielder is indeed out for the season.

    Scherzer @ Lester. WIN!

    Cliff Lee was months older than Lester will be when he signs, so what are you talking about? There's a huge difference between signing at 29 or 31-32. He's also a lefty like Lester (it matters), and has a career arc that is more consistent with Lester's given their playoff success prior to the big payday (it matters). You made up that argument all by yourself. And while i know that Lee took a discount (i mentioned it above) there were no reported 7-year offers for him. Where'd you come up with that? He could've gotten one more year and more money, but you're "mashing potatoes" here. My bet is 5/100 from the Sox or 5/130 with a vesting option from someone else.

    And there's good reason to think one of them won't be players (the Yankees) and the other will sign Scherzer.
  24. User Name
    Yes i can: Cliff Lee. He had better numbers than Lester, but he signed at a similar age. He could've gotten a bit more money from the Yankees, but not the ridiculous 27 per you're throwing around. In fact, i'm willing to bet neither he nor Scherzer will sniff 27 per, and Lester won't get 6 guaranteed years, nor will Scherzer get 7. Put your money where your keyboard is.

    No they're not, for several reasons. Greinke signed his contract at 29, and at the time, he had signed for the highest AAV for a pitcher, even though he wasn't a clear #1.
