    Yeah, it's like, if you are going to have a ridiculous contract, Tulowitzki might be one guy who's worth it. Manny's contract was ridiculous, but one of the best investments in the team's history.

    You're raising some interesting questions. It's great that we were able to unload 250 million of contracts. But do any of us really believe we'll be able to rebuild a World Series contender over the next few years without taking on at least one or two new big contracts? Is it possible for a big-market team like the Red Sox to do that? And even if we were able to do it, would the fans be happy? The luxury tax cap goes to 189 million in 2014. Should the Red Sox have the goal of having a payroll that's just under the cap, or should they spend much less than that? If they spend much less than that, where does all that extra money go? Back to the owners? Reduced ticket prices? (LOL)

    The O's are unimpressive, except for the results.

    If the Yankees want better production from A-Rod they better get Kate Hudson back on the case. When A-Rod was banging her back in 2009 he suddenly turned into Mr. October.

    Swisher - it's such a rarity for us to sign somebody with credentials away from the Yankees that I don't even consider it as a realistic possibility.

    The Nats are not sitting pretty, man. You are way overrating the home field thing. St. Louis has Carpenter back for Game 3 and Carpenter has been a superb big-game pitcher with a 9-2 postseason record. Plus their bats just caught fire.

    As crazy as it is, even with the lengthy slide he had, Nava ended up with the second-highest OBP on the team. He was one of the few hitters on the 2012 team with some patience.

    Like I said, the Orioles are now in big trouble.

    "Hello, Ben? Ben Cherington? Hey, Ben, how's it going, man? Um, listen, man, I'm calling on behalf of the gang here at the Talksox forum. You've heard of us, right? Yeah, I figured that. Look, Ben, we have a favor to ask. If it's not too big of a deal, could you please trade Daniel Nava this offseason? Yeah, we keep having these really silly arguments about him and we're getting tired of it. You can do it? Hey, that's awesome. Tell Daniel good luck for us. And good luck to you with the rebuilding thing."

    Sabathia was 0-2 with a 6.38 ERA and a 1.64 WHIP vs. the Orioles this year. :thumbsup:

    Go Orioles. Keep the magic going and take the Yankees down and out.

    + reams of football and golf. We are going wall-to-wall, baby...make sure you've got backup batteries for those remotes. :thumbsup:

    OK I'll make predictions...I don't want to be a stick in the mud.
  14. Bellhorn04
    I've never seen the point of making predictions on sports. I freely admit that I have little idea what's going to happen. Betting on sports is different. It's even dumber than making predictions, but at least it has a point.

    Home field advantage in the baseball playoffs is not a big factor. You lost 2 of 3 in the Bronx to the Tigers last year including Game 5. You also lost 2 of 3 in the Bronx in the 2010 ALCS. So that's twice in a row you've blown the home field thing.

    The buzz is pretty strong that it's going to be Farrell. And I'm hearing a lot of negativity about Farrell already. Great...
  17. Bellhorn04
    I think the Orioles and the A's are just as capable of beating the Yankees as the Tigers are. I don't believe in that head-to-head analysis stuff very much. The Orioles and A's are the teams that have been playing the best baseball the second half. Whichever team loses the first game in your series tomorrow is in big trouble.
  18. Bellhorn04
    The A's are 57-26 in their last 83 games. You don't have to fear them but you should at least respect them. I think they will take down the Tigers.
  19. Bellhorn04
    I agree with most of that, but I think they did try pretty hard to retain Lee.
  20. Bellhorn04
    See ya later Rangers.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Yep, nice gag job there by Nathan.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Uehara was terrible in last year's playoffs. Was he hurt or something?
  23. Bellhorn04
    It'll be interesting to see how it plays out, but I don't think it's that big of a disadvantage for the Wild Card team that survives. Their pitching might be a little off schedule but on the other hand they'll be the 'hotter' team coming off a big win.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I don't think this new format does much to resolve inequities. With 3 divisions, we already have major inequities. Detroit is in with 88 wins in a weak division. I don't see why they should be sitting back while 2 93-win teams play off.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Good post, jung. I share a lot of the same thoughts.
