  1. Who cares? Well, I respect your indifference. But analyzing what the GM's do is one of the favorite topics on baseball forums.
  2. There's no mention of the option on Baseball-Ref, but it says there he's not a free agent until 2015, and he's arbitration-eligible for 2014.
  3. I hear you. This thread is purely for shooting the breeze purposes.
  4. No, don't get me wrong, you're not crazy for liking Stanton a lot. I think we all know he's an offensive stud. It's a question of how much is too much to give up. And you know that Miami would want some of our top pitching prospects in the deal.
  5. The big question for me is whether the Sox see Bogaerts as a shortstop or a third baseman. If it's third base, then you have to consider re-signing Drew.
  6. So what if he required Bradley, Cecchini, Owens and Ranaudo? No thanks. I agree with what SCM said.
  7. Oh I know what you're saying. But on a night like this, what the hell else is Farrell supposed to do. You have to nail down a game like this. And let's face it, if he did something other than use Tazawa for 2 innings, our chances for winning this game would have dipped significantly.
  8. Tazawa + Uehara = f***ing awesome.
  9. Just checked the game logs for Tazawa. It's not nearly as bad as you might think. Tonight was his 6th appearance in the last 2 weeks. That covers 8.2 innings. But the big thing is, thanks to his efficiency, he's only thrown 84 pitches over those 8.2 innings.
  10. Man, some nasty high pitch counts on both sides the last 2 games.
  11. You're right, it wasn't a good choice of words. I just meant to question the suggestion that WMB hitting under .200 for 53 games means that he shouldn't be thought of as a legit major league hitter. A lot of legit hitters have had bad streaks that long. His 2012 numbers were certainly legit.
  12. Well, you said he wasn't legitimate because he's hitting under .200.
  13. So because he hit under .200 for 53 games he's done?
  14. Please. It's not a media creation. The NYY fans have had mixed feelings about him at the best of times. They have booed the crap out of him at times he was floundering. Even Girardi said it was 50/50 boos and cheers last night.
  15. It's a conundrum. Chad Finn is one of the most level-headed of the Boston sportswriters, and he has been pleading with them to bring up Bogaerts. Surely we're down to the final days of Snyder...as in 1, 2 or 3 more days.
  16. The really strange thing is that they didn't even start Snyder against the lefty Chen.
  17. Thank God the Rays have a big problem area there.
  18. Relievers get charged with blown saves based on allowing inherited runners to score, even if they don't get charged with the runs.
  19. It's OK man. He's hastening his own absence.
  20. Nava and Salty are so futile hitting from the right side. Give up the switch-hitter charade boys.
  21. Yes, he's a very surprising guy all around.
  22. Another baseball mystery: how the hell is 36-year old Bruce Chen, with a career ERA of 4.49, suddenly pitching so well?
  23. Leyland pinch-hit for Iggy last night in the 8th. In a tie game, with nobody on base, with .248 hitter Andy Dirks. Ouch...says a lot about how Leyland sees Iggy's value.
  24. If he finishes this season upright, there's no way Ellsbury can accept a QO. The example of Michael Bourn may be an apt one, but at the end of the day Bourn got a guaranteed 48 million, potential 60 million. That has to be quite a bit less than the worst-case scenario for Ellsbury.
