  1. If Napoli GIDPs i'm going to flip the f*** out
  2. Oh my f***ing God. Just a f***ing fly ball
  3. Actually, he probably is. He has 2,295 hits and 358 HR's. He has a decent chance at 3,000 hits and 500 homers if he declines naturally.
  4. What the f*** was Ciriaco swinging at? DFA plz.
  5. Too many GIDPS and K's. So frustrating.
  6. Tito in '04. With the 3-0 comeback, it should be a no-brainer.
  7. Because they have only arbitrator, i expect Melky and A-Rod to fall right away, and the rest to escape punishment this season.
  8. I see your ability to create derogatory terms for people is as sharp as ever.
  9. I was thinking of Vaughn's 1996 season.
  10. Dojji, you really need to stay within the confines of the discussion. That post is all over the place and did little to prove the viability of your position
  11. Keith Foulke's 2004 should be included in the RP list both because of the numbers he posted and historical importance. Jason Varitek's 2004 season should be a strong contender for the bench C spot as well. Rico Petrocelli's 1969 for the MIF spot, and give the CIF to someone else.
  12. Bogaerts will be promoted to AAA soon, because it's the logical thing to do. No one is arguing that. The argument's core issue is your ETA on XB's arrival to the Majors.
  13. ...or he could struggle with his hitting/fielding, lose confidence and have to compete for a spot next year anyway. Then the FO would take a s***-ton of flack for mishandling prospects. You have no way of knowing whether he's ready or not. All you're seeing is the offensive numbers he's putting up and disregarding everything else.
  14. They are excellent reasons. The problem is that the fanboy in you is too excited to see Bogaerts in the majors There's more than enough reason to wait until he's a finished product to promote him to the Majors. I would be a lot more inclined to agree with you on the timetable if the Sox didn't have not one, but two capable SS on the roster. If the need arises due to injury or ineffectiveness however, then your timetable becomes more realistic. But why would they get rid of Drew or Iglesias when they are both currently excelling on the field and at the plate?
  15. And how would being cautious be a bad thing? That's the whole point. What is YOUR point?
  16. Did you read my follow-up post? I have no problem with moving him to AAA. But projecting him to be starting at SS for the big club in August.......not so sure.
  17. We don't quite know yet how he would react to AAA pitching, how ready he is defensively, if SS is the position he'll be playing in the majors etc. All of that can be examined and sorted out in due time.
  18. The problem isn't him being promoted to AAA. The problem is the whole "he should be starting in the Majors by August" talk. It's silly
  19. But but but.......Ben is a boob
  20. I get that you're excited, but why rush up Bogaerts? Patience please.
  21. You would be right. The only reason i chose '84 over '87 is because he led the league in OPS, runs scored, games played, and plate appearances. It was also a career year in terms of TB and XBH.
  22. Well be specific. "If he wasn't a SS" is not the same as "if he played a power-specific position". I was asking specifically because we'd been over it.
