lol - I like that.

Oh my God!

Think that I am ready to say that at this point there is very little comparison between Travis and Moreland. If first base boils down to this decision, I don't think that there is much to decide. Moreland, with all of his apparent limitations, can hit the ball farther than Travis. The last thing this team needs now is to even consider replacing a bat with a little home run pop with another singles hitter. Add the big bats and maybe Sam gets a chance but to date he has a lot more to prove than the guy who has already proven at least something at the ml level. I like Sam to but I don't think there is any chance he starts the season in Boston. Depending on what gets done, he might even be packaged up nicely and traded away.

a damned good recommendation. If you say it my friend, it works for me.

X 3. Imagine that
-
He might be very good going forward. I do wish that we had him. I just couldn't let a devoted Yankee fan have all of the fun no matter how intelligent he wants to make me think he is. That crap really doesn't fly with old school, Scottish, New Englanders. I agree with you on this - as good as this kid looked this year, I think that i will temper my future HOF considerations for him. In fairness, I'll do the same for Benintendi and Devers. They really haven't proven a whole helluva lot just yet.

Hey - I'm all for number 3. It's how I got there! lol
-
thank you so sir for giving me your concern - remember though I have never claimed to be very bright.
-
I agree with this one as well but I would add that if he decides to spend what he chooses to spend it probably will have nothing to do with him potentially going over any type of monetary limit established by anyone. I'm thinking that he will probably make moves that seem to make a little sense to us but to assume based on anything that anyone here can look at what he has spent and try to guess what he might spend in the future is a stretch for me. Billionaires don't operate on a level that most of us can identify with. We have an insider here maybe we have a billionaire on board as well.
-
I really think that you might be right. I like very much how you phrased this. It does not lead me to think that you might think that you know more about this than the rest of us do. In reality, of course I understand that they have a budget but I would never pretend to understand to what extent a billionaire might go to get what he wants. I think that your comment shows some degree of common sense. I agree by the way.
-
Most of us really do admit that we don't have a clue as to what John Henry might be willing to do with his money.
-
You are talking garbage arguement but yet you use a player like Adam Dunn to use as his yardstick. Where did you get that degree from really doc? Now I realize that you will probably now tell me what a genius you are but sorry I'm not biting. Good try though. Do you really post on a Yankees forum? Hey maybe you are our insider.
-
no divulging yet - we get to guess I think . Oh Slasher whee are you when we need you?
-
Vazquez's pitch framing was about as good as I have seen. Now I know that I don't follow other catchers much and I certainly don't pay attention to their advanced statistics but I watched a whole bunch of games and he really is good. I think that I have actually seen progression though. Early in the season last, i felt that he was actually trying to move balls back into the strike zone that maybe he didn't need to move. I felt at the time that it might have cost his pitchers some strikes. His framing is much more subtle IMO. I really thin that he is good - one of the best that I have seen.
-
if Slasher says it it must be so
-
I think the J/K means just kidding. It is ok if you weren't though Notin. I'm ok with that. I'm actually getting attached to some of you strange ones with different points of view then mine. lol For the record - lest we forget - I am old school. Not too good with this new technical stuff.
-
Hey hey hey - wait - Are you the one Slasher has been talking about? Are you our Red Sox insider? Tell JH to loosen up those purse strings.
-
I never appreciated that ass hole but what do I know I am a lifelong Giants fan. How do you like that one?
-
lol good one - unperked nips - Even Spud has to like this one!
-
Ya - that was nice - I'm going to guess - just my opinion - he ain't the toughest hombre in town just yet. Got to give him a little more time.
-
oh I still that there is a little more to it than that. Some of those guys had to make big time changes to even get on the field in New England. Talent obviously is one thing and a very important thing but it is safe to say that no matter how good you might have been or might think you are if you are a butt hole you probably won't last too long here. It is about how can you make us better and not about how good you think that you are.
-
Oh I understand that so well. Too well me thinks.
-
tut tut - don't go getting political on us! Good for the goose good for the gander and all that other crap
-
The most natural power of anybody in baseball??? He is one of the biggest guys I guess and certainly has a lot of natural power but how are you going prove that one statistically speaking. Sounds like your opinion to me. I might agree with you but I might not. Seems like there is likely someone out there who is at least as strong if not stronger. I appreciate a loyal fan though but you of all people should know that if you can't quantify it it likely won't be believed.
-
Now Notin - I'm not sure here but I might even agree with you although I have to add when all of those unloved guys you mentioned came to play for us I don't think that it was the laundry that had anything to do with their turn arounds. I think that that guy who decides who plays and how much in their case was the big factor. Not sure that Alex Cora is on his wave length just yet.
