  1. I don't think you quite understand what a "good" or "bad" contract is.
  2. Being disciplined in picking up bad contracts? That is ridiculous by definition. It's a bad contract for a reason. You're killing me here. And iortiz, maybe you can take two seconds to stop your Papelbon worship and think about the future. Paying guys for what they've done instead of what they'll do is a recipe for failure. We get it, you like Papelbon. But if you could get a guy who could give you 80% of his production for a third of the money and lesser prospects, would you trade for him, or the other guy? If you say Papelbon, well then i'm just glad you're not running this team.
  3. All more appetizing options than Papelbon. The whole "The Sox aren't cash strapped so they should spend money" mentality is what got them into the mess they were in last year in the first place. You don't take on bad contracts just because you can. That is a recipe for failure.
  4. And no offense to Fred, but he needs to understand that's the reason why it's so hard to take him seriously.
  5. No Papelbon and his albatross contract plz.
  6. Yeah you've been banging that drum for over a month and nothing's happened.
  7. Kinda told ya you pissed him off
  8. I wonder if something clicked with Doubront. Even without his velocity, he's been pounding the zone like strikes are going out of style tonight
  9. So what you're saying is that posts on this site literally attacking him for being "a pussy like his brother" after he got concussed, and the reactionary posts on GTs saying he sucks and he's a waste of money while he was in the middle of his hot streak don't denote irrational hatred towards him? Color me skeptical.
  10. People seem to generally have an embedded dislike for Stephen because of his brother. He could be OPS'ing .900 and some would still say he's not "playing very well".
  11. I meant the hilarity of this thread, not the Yankee play
  12. I don't think this can actually get any better
  13. And you know this how? Serious question. None of us literally know the Red Sox' line of thinking.
  14. You're setting yourself up for disappointment here. He's probably not moving, and if he is, it's probably not going to be to the Red Sox. He's basically your Shawn Marcum.
  15. There's a difference between *might be* and *will be*. Everyone *might be* available, but not everyone *will be*.
  16. How do you know for certain they'll be available? You can't present your speculation as fact.
  17. Xander Bogaerts
  18. I bet Lackey has a similar outing to Dempster's.
  19. Get 'em tomorrow. I bet they win if Drew-Iggy is the left side of the infield.
  20. ...but would block a spot for a younger, probably superior pitcher, so what's your point?
  21. Jacko, i don't quite think Standing Room likes you .
  22. Palodios, Marcum is no longer the pitcher he was when he had those good years in the AL East. His already fringe stuff has declined, and he's post-op. Advocating for him is indefensible.
