  1. I keep reading several websites besides Cot's (including MLBTR, whose reports conflict) saying it's a limited no-trade that's going to get run over by 10-5 rights later in the year.
  2. It's not about "get off my lawn". It's about "one overworked mod" more than anything else. A surefire way to help smooth things out is to find YOTN some help.
  3. He was Altuve before being Altuve was cool.
  4. Cot's says "limited" no trade protection. He doesn't earn full no-trade until he hits 10-5 rights at the end of this year is what I've read. https://www.baseballprospectus.com/compensation/cots/al-east/boston-red-sox/
  5. Isn't this team like in first place in the ALE and has the best record in the AL, and third best (behind Cubs-Nats) in the league?
  6. No way is Pedroia more overrated than Trot "True grit dirtdog dirty helmet rly tuff" Nixon.
  7. Pedroia does not have a full NTC and doesn't yet have 10-5 rights. So avenues.
  8. 4.29 P/PA would be top 25 in the league if he qualified.
  9. I'm not advocating for trading him. I'm saying that if the Sox needed/wanted to trade him there are avenues to do it.
  10. So no team has ever convinced a player to waive his no-trade?
  11. That does not make him not suck.
  12. Kelly sucks, but that's not the point. The umps are inaccurate, because they are given an impossible task. Said task could be simplified by providing umpires with technology that would allow them to minimize mistakes. In the interest of true fairness for the game of baseball, this is a no-brainer.
  13. Middle-middle fastball. Clay's undoing.
  14. It's not a big deal, but you're making it up
  15. I won't believe it unless I see it, sorry. I did argue that, when healthy, Buchholz is better than Shields, which this season has demonstrated is wrong, but I've never been a believer in Kelly.
  16. Elias: Mookie Betts first player in history to homer in first and second inning of consecutive games
  17. Find it. If I did, I'll aceept it, if I didn't (and considering how much I goddamn whined about Kelly and Buchholz not lasting the season), accept you make stuff up (which you do). In fact, IIRC, I spent a long part of the offseason beating the Panda for Shields drum.
  18. Please find where exactly I said that. If you don't (and you won't), please stop making stuff up.
  19. ^Did not get the memo. Hey Kimmi, remember when I told you Kelly's ST stats meant jack squat? This is what I meant.
  20. Calls like this one sure as hell don't enhance my enjoyment of the game.
  21. So? You've been anti-improvement most of the thread. Make up your mind. Fix the strike zone issue or don't fix the strike zone issue.
  22. ^This
