Schilling was #5 at 60.9%. Maybe he gets in next time.
-
Well deserved.
-
Dave is busy at the moment browsing around the Relief Pitcher Flea Market.
-
All the answers are coming soon!
-
That'd still be better than Guaranteed Rate Field.
-
Yes, absolutely. And for someone who lives a distance away like me, the ticket prices, while high, are a small part of the total cost of a trip to Boston. So the ticket prices aren't really an issue.
-
I certainly don't know the answer to that. But we do know that we have the highest payroll the last 2 years, that we were more than $40 million over the first tax threshold last year, and that we will be around the same this year. So I have no beefs with JH whatsoever.

DD likes Holt and Cora loves Nunez. I doubt either is traded. But we shall see.
-
For us it began when we finished off the Dodgers.

Well, this might sound a little simplistic, but you only need to get about 35,000 people in there, which is a tiny fraction of Red Sox Nation. And a big chunk of the crowd is season ticket holders or people they sold or gave their tickets to. All you have to do is put a team on the field that's worth seeing. JH knows that very well.

I was just talking about the pitchers they called up last year: German 85.2 IP 5.57 ERA Cessa 44.2 5.24 Loaisiga 24.2 5.11 Adams 7.2 7.04

Now here's a really bad pun: The Yankees traded for him, but it wasn't Long before they Shed him.
-
Personally I'm kind of a stickler and my preference is to exclude nicknames. Shed's actual name is Shedric.
-
IMHO the present system is really not that bad - it's practical if nothing else. Having a total free agency system without a draft would be kind of an ugly mess, I think. Talents like Mookie will get paid hugely over their careers. The problem right now seems to be too many owners looking to put too much of the profits in their pockets and not in their teams, and that has to be addressed.
-
The Red Sox financial advantage comes from their rabid fanbase, absolutely.
-
Tool Shed, not bad.
-
The Reds got their extension so maybe they're not totally mismanaged after all.
-
Here's what Henry said: 'We do have constraints. It's not necessarily the luxury tax that is your constraint. It's how much money you're willing to lose.' There's a limit somewhere. Let's say it's 5 million above the highest threshold this year. That would still only leave DD about $10 mill left to play with.
-
If the owners don't wise up, they're going to kill the golden goose.
-
Yeah, he tries to keep us in line. And sometimes we have to keep him in line. No one gets a free pass here.
-
Yet every single guy you brought up last year posted bad numbers.
-
You are a very nice person. And Harmony is a nice guy. I just think he likes to take shots at the Sox and their fans a little more than he cares to admit.
-
The $5 mill bin Too funny. That's exactly where we are.
-
It's getting a little late in the game for the Pirates to trade him this offseason, of course.
-
The Red Sox have reportedly been in contact with Shawn Kelley. So at least we can surmise they haven't sworn off signing any relievers altogether.
