    Yeah, his work behind the dish thus far suggests his future, if any, should be at 1B or DH. On the bright side, he does seem to have the potential with the stick to have an MLB career.

    Just read that Lavarnway is going to get some work at first base this spring.

    Personally I have far too little information to render an opinion. I assume that also applies to others here.
  4. Bellhorn04
    I don't have much opinion on him, except he was one of the few guys I liked watching in the abysmal 2005 World Series.

    LOL that is funny. zac, can I please see your truck day pic again, the one with Cherington, and Pedroia on the sled...that one kills me.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Fighting on an anonymous internet forum has to be the most useless practice ever. Yeah, you're really gonna get the best of somebody by putting unkind words on their computer screen.
  7. Bellhorn04
    OK zac WTF are RSPs? I assume you have a pic ready to go.

    Making A-Rod the face of the franchise till age 42 didn't work out so good.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, my bad.

    I felt so bad for Marty Barrett - a journeyman guy who played out of his mind that postseason and would have been World Series MVP and Red Sox hero.
  11. Bellhorn04
    Baseball posts please.

    Sabathia might have a bounceback season, too.

    The Yankees bullpen looks a bit thin at the moment. But to borrow a page from Fred's book, I don't think the dirty conniving bastards are done yet. Who knows, maybe our old pal Papelbon is on their radar, among others.

    Getting back to MVP's point, taken to its extreme this might mean that selling Babe to the Yanks was 'good for the rivalry'. Plus all those other players they took from us in that time frame. They raped us, basically. That created a type of drama too, in the form of years of untold anguish for Sox fans and Dan Shaughnessy getting rich.

    Red Sox-Yankees rivalry/buzz is at its peak when the two teams are duking it out for a postseason spot or meeting in the postseason.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Well, this is kind of a nebulous issue IMO, but if we focus on the one specific scenario of Drew signing with the Yankees, I think that might tend to affect Sox and Yankee fans/media a lot more than it would affect general baseball fans/media. With a big name like Ortiz it's a different story. Was Damon going to the Yankees good for the rivalry/buzz...if so, in a big way? I don't think it had that big of an impact on baseball in general.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Maybe. You could also say that if Ortiz goes to the Yankees in 2015 it would provide more drama too. Or you could say it would make you sick and angry.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I have to say the one thing that will sour this offseason for me is if the Yanks sign Drew.
  19. Bellhorn04
    What I'm suggesting is that there are a lot of X factors in play. For the Yankees we can start with Sabathia and Tanaka. Pretty hard to predict. But if those two have strong seasons, etc. etc.
  20. Bellhorn04
    The Yankees have a lot of question marks, but so did we going into last season. Everything went right for us. I'm not writing off the Yankees this year. If Sabathia comes back, if Pineda comes back, if they sign Drew etc....
  21. Bellhorn04
    Very good.
  22. Bellhorn04
    In what way is it a big weakness though? In the competitive fairness department, all the Yankees spending isn't equating to many championships lately. In the business department, MLB is obviously raking in more money than ever.
  23. Bellhorn04
    That's the same thing we heard about Dice-K. What are the final numbers on the Dice-K marketing benefits?

    My memories of 1986 are mostly good ones, except for the finish obviously. I had a trip to Boston that year with some buddies that was the best trip I've ever had there. We arrived on a Friday night. They lost the Friday game 14-3 to the Orioles, but Fenway was in a big party mood regardless. The next afternoon we spent several hours at the Cask N Flagon. There were 5 of us, a couple of them were former college football players who weighed over 250. We were all big beer drinkers. We drank so many beers that afternoon that when we were about to leave, the manager insisted that he have his picture taken with us.

    I remember Game 4. It was on a Saturday night and I was watching it in a bar while drinking heavily. Clemens was pitching for us and we had a 3-0 lead going to the 9th. For some reason the group I was with moved somewhere else and I stopped watching the game. Then, it must have been at least an hour later, I passed by a TV and saw that the game was still going on. I felt sick to my stomach. The Angels had scored 3 in the 9th and then they scored 1 in the 11th to go up 3-1 in the series.
