  1. He didn't require TJ surgery to be ineffective. He has never been effective, except for one year.
  2. Is this your evidence? I gave you an assessment by experts; you gave me your opinion. Thats fine. This forum is OK for opinions. My opinion is that the offense is a given next year, but we cannot bash our way into a ring. We finished NINTH in the AL in ERA. That, simply, is not going to get it done.
  3. No one. They won the division as currently constructed last year. Who did we get? Silva? Germano? Cook? Shopping in the dumpster for SP is not going to improve our team. Furthermore, if Bard starts, he doesn't relieve. And guess who our most effective bullpen pitcher was last year....thats right, Bard. Do you think Bard will toss 200 innings this year? Nope. Maybe 140. Then we are into Miller, and Silva, and Germano...and Cook. Unless Cherington improves the SP, we will finish third again. There will be a lot of people crying here in August.
  4. Here you go. I am providing some evidence that some experts also think that we are no better than THIRD BEST in the ALE right now. The Bleacher Report ranks us at #8, the Rays at #6, and the Yankees at #2 in baseball. Maybe you can support YOUR position with some evidence too? Guess not. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1005295-mlb-power-rankings-rating-each-baseball-team-heading-into-2012#/articles/1005295-mlb-power-rankings-rating-each-baseball-team-heading-into-2012/page/31
  5. I am going nowhere. Its folks like you that are such easy pickings that make this site enjoyable, if not challenging as a debate forum. If we finished third last year and have not improved, then we will probably finish third again. Oh wait......we got Silva, Cook, and Germano. They should do the trick, right? Maybe Miller? HAHAHAHAHA
  6. Who won last year? Who finished second? Which team has the best starting pitching? And who failed to make the playoffs? We are now WORSE than last year. Face facts.
  7. 1. Yankees 2. Rays 3. Jays or Sox 4. Sox or Jays
  8. Coffee break is over already?
  9. Why not make it permanent?
  10. Sure. Why don't you do that. Because that would give everyone else a few minutes of time without having to read the trash you write here while you are doing your homework.
  11. Not so! If its a good joke, the subject ought to recognize that and react accordingly!
  12. I never engage in a war of wits with an unarmed man. Posts like this are what gets people banned. Name calling has no place here or on any forum. Its pretty obvious that you have the intelligence level of an orangutang and the personality of a paranoid schizophrenic. I think this board would be a better place without the displeasure of your nauseating presence.
  13. That fact does not detract from how true the observation is.
  14. This may be the dumbest post i have read on this site. Congratulations. This hardly debates the post. The clear implication is that you think that the poster is dumb. Thats the way any sane person would interpret it. Its something you have a problem with.
  15. I don't like it either. I would like even less going over the cap and not being able to get a top notch SP next year who would be with the club for years. Sacrifice one more year for several years of potential success.
  16. Because if we are under the cap the owners are seriously considering staying there this year. Any FA signed next year would be taxed at, I believe, 140%. And there will be lots of good SP available. No, they are not ALL going to sign extensions with their clubs. This is what I would prefer. I think we would be shooting ourselves in the foot if we go for broke this year.
