    I don't understand a lot of these fringe transactions. Lavarnway has passed through the hands of 3 or 4 teams this offseason.

    Kimmi is a Red Sox fan trying to join the forum. She hasn't been able to, apparently because none of the moderators are around. You probably can't access her page because her account hasn't been activated.

    I don't totally disagree with you, in fact I'm probably playing devil's advocate a bit here. But if we judge a pitcher on his postseason credentials, we wouldn't want Kershaw either.

    A poster that I know from other forums has been trying to join up here without success. She tried e-mailing Yeszir and then YOTN. Here is the last message she sent me. My account still hasn't been activated. Youk of the Nation did not respond to my PM. Does it usually take this long to have an account activated? The initial email said it should be less than 24 hours, and it has been a week. I also sent an email to the "Contact Us" link on this site, and no response. Do you have any other suggestions on someone to contact? She's a good poster. Can somebody help?

    The other line of thinking, of course, is that you should go all in from Day One because if you don't, you might miss the playoffs by a game.

    I think they are all in, for 2 reasons: 1) They're already over the luxury tax threshold. 2) The Ortiz window is closing.

    OTOH Shields was the #1 on a team that went to Game 7 of the World Series and he had a very large role in them getting there.

    Nolan Ryan handled himself pretty well when Ventura charged him, as I recall.

    It was actually a brilliant matador move by Pedro, especially since Zimmer came out of nowhere, and I think Pedro did 'put a little extra into it'. But I've always said Pedro was defending himself and shouldn't be criticized at all.

    Losing that game pissed me off so much.

    Williams was both blessed and cursed. I read the biography by Montville and I came away feeling sorry for the guy. I don't think his baseball career actually brought him a lot of happiness.

    Still and all, Stephen has done OK for himself, having made $45-47 million for his career including this contract.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Thank you Pedro...and Duquette.

    The O's have an excellent GM, an excellent manager, and a cheap owner.

    Also, too bad about the demise of Shaun Marcum. SoxSport, not so much.
  16. Bellhorn04
    The 2012 starters had the worst ERA in franchise history, at 5.19.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Carpenter was Red Sox property for about a month. We got him in the trade with the Jays for Farrell, then waived him.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Lee's contract is $25 million for 2015 but there is a $12.5 million buyout for the 2016 option. So if he bombs in 2015 he could cost you $37.5 million for one year.

    A-Rod and Jeter didn't get better defensively as they aged, but A-Rod didn't get worse and Jeter didn't really start to deteriorate until he'd been playing for a while.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Yes, it would be very enjoyable, I have to admit. I'm tired of Boras and I'm tired of hearing about how he's the best at what he does blah blah blah.
  21. Bellhorn04
    The really sad thing about 2003 was that Timlin and Embree were both outstanding that postseason. I didn't even realize how good they had been until I looked at the numbers afterward. Grady obviously should have had those numbers right in front of him.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Wow - crafty little f***ers, aren't they? The Sox beancounters are obviously convinced that The Rivalry is alive and well even when the two teams miss the playoffs.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Shifts will be around until we see some upswing in offensive numbers again.
  24. Bellhorn04
    FWIW here are their career ERA+ and 2014 ERA+: Kelly 111 91 Buchholz 109 72 Miley 103 86 Porcello 98 116 Masterson 94 63 A #3 should have an ERA+ of around 100, all else being equal, which it isn't of course. Based on the above numbers it's a motley crew indeed, especially considering how wildly erratic Buch and Masterson have been.

    LOL you really are too much Fred.
