    The option of trading JD is still on the table, of course.
  2. Bellhorn04
    I'm pretty sure there are no retroactive adjustments, but there are 'true-up' adjustments - which the Yankees are getting because of Chapman's opt-out and new deal.
  3. Bellhorn04
    He's making us wait again, just like before he signed!
  4. Bellhorn04
    These allegations seem a bit odd when you consider how long DD has been around. Maybe he started drinking heavily or something.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I don't think the state of the farm is irrelevant to it-maybe more like a case of killing two birds with one stone. And the hiring of Bloom certainly indicates a whole different team-building approach to DD's.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Howzat?
  7. Bellhorn04
    DD may have 'decimated' the farm, but if you look at each individual trade he made, they all had a pretty specific and justifiable purpose. They were almost all for pitching or for help at the deadline. He did overpay in some cases, no doubt. But he wasn't just throwing assets away for nothing.
  8. Bellhorn04
    Attention, especially of the negative variety, with an underlying theme of 'albatross contract for guy who can't stay healthy and should be a DH'.
  9. Bellhorn04
    I don't disagree, but this is beside the point of who deserves credit for titles.
  10. Bellhorn04
    So now we have no talent at the major league level?
  11. Bellhorn04
    But Kimmi, if we do that we also have to take away a lot of Ben's credit for 2013. The 2013 team was made up of players inherited from Theo plus a few key free agent acquisitions. Why do we have to play the discredit game at all?
  12. Bellhorn04
    The Canadian House of Commons is kind of embarrassing. When someone is talking, they often have a chorus of hecklers from the Opposition.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Something tells me there are a few pejoratives flying around.
  14. Bellhorn04
    That one was Ben's.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Compiled strictly for fun/interest. I think we can at least conclude that NYY, STL and BOS have had a lot more success getting to the playoffs than CIN, PIT and SDP!
  16. Bellhorn04
    They can't trade him right now, though, can they?
  17. Bellhorn04
    If the Sox non-tender him, he's a regular free agent, and there's no arbitration.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I guarantee Beni is not looked at as an option for CF or RF by the Sox FO.
  19. Bellhorn04
    You made fun of other people's opinions by way of heavy sarcasm, then got offended when someone described one of your opinions as idiotic. A classic case of being able to dish it out, but not take it.
  20. Bellhorn04
    You're way off the mark. She has criticized many a move, most notably the replacement of Ben by DD.
  21. Bellhorn04
    I don't think so. Price did though?
  22. Bellhorn04
    That was no crapshoot. A guy like Ross would never give up on a woman who looked like that.
  23. Bellhorn04
    I'm not sure of anything. He could also have said he's definitely not opting out by now...
  24. Bellhorn04
    Here's one of my little issues with the 'crapshoot' philosophy. If you fully subscribe to the theory that every team that gets in has an equal chance: 1) Deadline deals like the acquisitions of Eovaldi, Pearce and Kinsler in 2018, or Peavy in 2013, were 'unnecessary', because we already had a playoff spot virtually clinched. 2) What's the point of a team that has clinched getting players a little rest at the end of the season to have them in better shape for the playoffs? 3) What's the point of a team that has clinched trying to get their pitching rotation properly lined up for the playoffs?
  25. Bellhorn04
    Personally, I'd rather have 5 more than 5 less.
