  1. The word already seems to be out that an extension isn't happening. Not surprising with Boras.
  2. Dice was good in 2008 too. 2 years good, 4 years s***.
  3. Ellsbury looking like Ellsbury again. The hits are coming back and so is his market value.
  4. I dunno...Melky seems like a touchy proposition coming off a PED suspension and attempted obstruction of justice.
  5. This should be the sad but fitting end to the Dice-K saga.
  6. Cook has pitched decently his last 3 starts and I think he should be considered for next year, only as a dirt-cheap #5-#6 of course.
  7. I haven't seen anyone as hard on Maddon as you are, and I must say I enjoy it.
  8. Rodriguez is a good example of the Rays lack of depth in positional players. The guy is hitting .214 and butchering it in the field and here he is starting in an important game.
  9. This happens to a lot of young hitters though. Rizzo hit 141/281/242 in his first ML stint last year. This year he's hitting 296/349/486.
  10. The Rays' organization is constantly touted as one of the best and it may be. They continue to produce good young pitchers. But they are not producing any hitters at all. They are a classic good pitch/no hit team, and this year's version looks like it will miss the playoffs. The lack of hitting also makes this Rays team a bore to watch. The Tampa fans have never been the best, but when the team is like watching paint dry it makes matters worse.
  11. Tazawa has been dealing. 41 K's and 5 BB's in 37.2 innings.
  12. Trading Rizzo definitely looks like it will haunt us. Hard to believe he ended up with the man who traded him in Chicago.
  13. Nava with 2 hits, 2 RBI and a spectacular game-saving catch. I still like this guy.
  14. LOL Triple L 'Lyin' Larry Lucchino'
  15. It is plausible, but it might be nothing.
  16. Gasparino says one of the things that convinced him the story was solid was the trade with the Dodgers, that whenever a team unloads that much payroll it's a sign of financial trouble. He thereby excludes the possibility that it was merely a smart baseball and financial move that should be instrumental in rebuilding the team.
  17. Fair enough, but I don't think this Charlie Gasparino guy who broke the story would know much about it either.
  18. That doesn't really answer it. I doubt the Red Sox lost very much money this year, and they just offloaded a ton of payroll. I think they're only committed to about 50 million of payroll for 2013 right now. I can't see how Henry would be in financial trouble with the Sox. If Henry was interested in selling I think it would be because it ain't fun anymore and it's a good time to cash in. Not because of financial trouble.
  19. Henry said on the M & M show it's complete horseshit...'we love this, we're in it for the long haul, I've already got more money than I'll ever need, we just signed some agreements that would prove all this if you saw them' etc. etc.
  20. The team's a mess, but if this ownership sells it and NESN they could get 1.5 billion. They bought the team for 700 million. Nice capital gain.
  21. Kind of strange that Luccino went on record to deny this already.
  22. Bud Selig is the master of gimmickry. Interleague games-check. All-Star game decides World Series home field-check. Wild card one-game playoffs-check.
  23. And how would you describe throwing Zach Stewart out there again?
  24. Even if the Sox are out of it, baseball is still a hell of a lot better than no baseball.
