Latest story out on Ohtani's elbow makes me kind of glad the sox lost out on this one. Yahoo news
-
thanks for clarifying. that is not what i was getting from your initial comment. Silly me again, reading something into a post that just wasn't there.
-
so it appears that DD has his sights set on Martinez - will he get him?
-
kind of depends on how you look at it. My hope is that the clear majority of pitchers get the fact that it is about the team as opposed to the individual. that being said, if the pitcher wins kind of follows that the team does as well. I like pitchers that tend to win more than they lose. Works for the team in the long run.
-
lol lol lol - good good good one. Since he probably is smart enough to know that he can't win on the forum boards, I'm really ok with the fact that he doesn't have to tell us everything that he thinks, is doing , and will do.
-
I agree with all of what you said.
-
Doesn't it kind of all boil down to wins and losses? I do understand that total wins is just an overrated stat to the advanced metric folk. Is it possible that it is still a valuable stat to the guys throwing the ball toward the hitters at the plate though?
-
I agree with you entirely but it just doesn't work that way these days. He will be tried in the court of public opinion. That will be good enough for this ownership.
-
Is your point the obvious one, or are you possibly suggesting something else?
-
Pretty sure we do!

Even though I got caught up in the euphoria of the signing, Sandoval looks like one of the worst deals the franchise has ever made. I'm not even sure what the allure was looking back in hindsight. A player's performance in the post season no matter how good is not reason enough to make the sign. It is a long season. I still have hope for Hanley - have to- and as for Price, if he can throw, he won't hurt us. If he is healthy, it is more than likely that he will help us. If Martinez is signed, I think that we could have a very explosive offense if things fall into place. Although I do not expect DD to stop there, it might actually be enough. Could be a wild ride with the Red Sox right in the middle of things. Not giving an inch to the Yanks!!! Also, from the sounds of things, Martinez is a great clubhouse guy and a great teammate.

Hey look on the bright side- people with some good old school ways of looking at things are still tolerated for the most part. If they knew my views about the influence of social media on society in general they might chase me off though. lol
-
Oh boy - I'll say it again though , with our current ownership, I would be very surprised if Wright returns to the Red Sox.
-
Get it done DD - sign Martinez!
-
Saw an interview with him last week - probably everybody else did to but it sure sounded good. Kind of like he is excited, healthy and into a new fitness regimen. If he makes us a better team next year, hey I don't mind seeing him vest for 2019. But - oh well not my $
-
I'm proud of you for asking that question! I think that that is the answer you probably expected as well. Butterfield is a good man. With people like him sometimes you can read between he lines. My guess is that deep inside, he didn't have much fun in that clubhouse this year. He deserves better.
-
If you can't simply report the news, why not just create some! lol
-
I guess our man just wasn't feeling desperate. I'm still all in on a Martinez sign. Maybe one for first. If not sign Moreland. A package including Bradley for quality pitching works for me. I like Jackie. He has been fun to watch but it might be time to move him if there is a partner out there willing to give up something solid.
-
ah ah ah - i knew it, i just knew it
-
If he is back in Boston, regardless of the details, I would be surprised.
-
Oh you don't need to apologize. I just think that it is a sad situation in general.
-
No no no - don't misunderstand me and make a statement like that. That is not what I was implying at all.
-
I understand what you are saying here and it is the highroad. It is logical. I 'm just a little hesitant to buy into the theory that New York was his choice of destination.
-
In this day and age? I would be really surprised if he is back in Boston.
-
Slasher alert - where are you when we need you? lol
