    Sandoval was a much better regular season player with San Fran than he has been with us. He wasn't just a total stiff in the regular season who turned into Babe Ruth in the playoffs.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Hanley has a minus 1.2 fWAR right now.
  3. Bellhorn04
    They only share a % of their local revenue with other teams. The basic amount is 34%. Then there's some sort of supplemental thing which is impossible to explain. But the bottom line is they still keep most of the money for Panda merchandise sold at Fenway.

    I don't see sound reasons for the trade if we're not looking beyond 2015.
  5. Bellhorn04
    My basic question about the Lackey trade to the Sox FO would be this: did they expect that this would make us a better team in 2015? Forget about 2016 and beyond, I want to know about 2015.
  6. Bellhorn04
    I certainly agree that the FO has remained fully invested in the team especially with the payroll. Now, as far as controlling what happens on the field, they can't do that directly, but they can certainly impact it with additional personnel moves during the season.

    What makes you think the wild card games don't qualify as postseason, playoff games?

    Check out this tweet from Brian MacPherson during last night's game: Cherington did not sound like the plan is to move Ramirez or Sandoval to another position in the second half. His words: "We're more focused on how we continue to help guys in the spots they're in show us what they can do, figure out what their ceilings are." I'm shaking my head trying to comprehend this. He's talking about $183 million of talent here. We're helping them, seeing what they can do and figuring out their ceilings?
  9. Bellhorn04
    I don't disagree there, but when is it officially established?
  10. Bellhorn04
    Isn't the quote 'serious playoff contender' though?
  11. Bellhorn04
    Sandoval's marketability as 'Panda' would also have a lot of appeal to Werner.
  12. Bellhorn04
    What about the luxury tax thing with Craig?
  13. Bellhorn04
    Kimmi, I think many people questioned the move at the time. Too bad Palodios is on hiatus-I think he was the loudest voice here crying 'What are they doing?' And there still isn't a very clear explanation for it. To me the only way it makes sense is if Lackey was making huge problems about honoring the 2015 year at minimum salary. But that has never been confirmed.
  14. Bellhorn04
    This is the Rays though. Even if he starts cold they could keep him around for a longer look, with the expanded rosters in September, and the distinct possibility of them dropping out of it. If he shows any signs of life they might have a place for him next year because he'll still cost very little. If you're the Rays you need some bargain players.
  15. Bellhorn04
    If the Sox decline Buch's $13 million option they only have to pay him $245K and he's a free agent. Not sure what that has to do with coming up with $200 million or more for Cueto though.
  16. Bellhorn04
    No my good man, he is signed for 2016. And there will be a 2016 season, believe it or not. And there's no rule saying you have to ship out every guy who has proven he can actually pitch, even if Ben tries to give us that impression.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Sure we will. Now may I direct you to this website where you can buy loads of 2015 Sox merchandise, and every $50 spent gives you one entry in a draw for a Green Monster Seat at a 2016 game.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Trade Koji my ass.
  19. Bellhorn04
    I'm only following on Gameday. Why did Girardi leave Shreve in there for a 30-pitch inning that could have been insurance runs?
  20. Bellhorn04
    Craig will remain in AAA unless he really catches fire. The reason being, they somehow got him off the 40-man roster and therefore his salary doesn't count for luxury tax purposes unless they put him back on it. You can't make this s*** up.
  21. Bellhorn04
    By getting rid of Craig, St. Louis got a nice little salary dump out of the deal. Just a terrible transaction. Should have just asked for a prospect back.
  22. Bellhorn04
    To put it kindly.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Hanley Ramirez has 8 doubles. 8! How is this even possible.
  24. Bellhorn04
    One guy we did develop was Alex Wilson. So naturally we toss him in on the Porcello trade, and this year he's got a 1.76 ERA and a .94 WHIP in 56.1 innings for the Tigers.
  25. Bellhorn04
    No one can disagree. We can't even develop middle relievers. And you know where Robbie Ross came from, right? We traded Ranaudo for him.
