  1. Nava is brutal in RF. He is simply not an option there for any extended period of time.
  2. Salty may not even be the worst defensive catcher on the Red Sox. He's better than Lavarnway. Also, i see Dojji has found a new binky in Carp.
  3. This guy is the greatest troll to ever visit this site. This s*** is golden.
  4. Came here expecting troll. Was not disappoint.
  5. You shall feel the wrath of YOTN.
  6. Yeah, that's because he was basically a platoon player. You can't compare a platoon player with a full-time player straight-up and then claim superiority from the platoon guy. I don't care about the Nava vs. Gomes argument, because Nava has clearly been better, but let's not get carried away here.
  7. Uribe also started his career in Colorado.
  8. First off, yes. Confirmation bias has a lot to do with the idea of "clutch". Second, are you trying to imply that Nava was a better hitter than Ellsbury or Pedroia this season? Because that is insane. He's a platoon player. Joey Votto against righties, Trot Nixon against lefties.
  9. That's the whole point. Overall, it really doesn't. Other than the obligatory numbers boost from facing a pitcher from the stretch instead of the windup, hitters generally don't perform very differently in "clutch" situations than regular situations on a consistent basis. It is not a repeatable skill, and the exceptions are few and far between.
  10. Uribe is not as talented as WMB. He was (and is) a much more vulnerable hitter aided in his initial years by a bandbox, and is not nearly as disciplined as WMB. His tools also don't match up well with WMB's from a scouting perspective. But hey, why look at facts when you have an irrational dislike for a player and an irrational boner for other (much inferior) players than the ones you dislike? Dojji: Where irrational happens!
  11. Yet he had more of a chance of getting Fielder out than "Wild Thing" Morales.
  12. I bring in anyone, or even leave Buch in there. You don't want a wild guy in a crucial situation like that.
  13. Bringing in Morales to pitch for Fielder.
  14. Thanks. I was really really curious about that.
  15. f*** GERD treatment. I'm stealing the lady tonight and we're drinking a full bottle of scotch.
  16. Back in April, when i was mentally masturbating about Koji as full-time closer, i never thought he'd be dominant to the point he'd be the ALCS MVP. But well, here we are...... Also, f*** Papelbon. (sorry YOTN, had to)
  17. Relief pitcher of the year: Koji Executive of the year: Bodacious Ben Beard of the year: Mike Napoli
  18. Including a five-out save in which he didn't break a goddamn sweat.
  19. Victorino calling out the haters. Attention SFF and iortiz!
  20. Oh the sweet nectar of victory!
  21. Doubtful, which is why i'm asking the question smartass.
  22. Silly Jackson. Bunts don't work against Koji. Second nail.
  23. When was the last time the two teams with the best record in their respective leagues met in the WS?
