    how did trading away nomar work out?
  2. Slasher9
    how many parades has mike trout been a part of?

    burn the Farm down to the ground. mission accomplished. hopefully C-BlOOM does as good of a job with his reputation as DD did with his....

    there is not an easier out in baseball then a flyball. just look at the %es. flyballs are automatic outs. groundballs are not. if we are worried about JD catching a ball thrown directly to him then he probably wouldnt have made it past high school baseball (if even). i want my outfielders to run down and catch everything in the field of play. i am OK with my below average 1bman not scooping every throw in the dirt.

    dang! link to youtube clip?

  7. Slasher9
    oh yeah? looks like the yankees about to get another RP on the cheap....

    who says to have him play 1b instead of DHing? i am advocating 1b instead of OF.
  9. Slasher9
    yes sir. player (of course) after years 3 and 4.

    Ben was the 2nd best GM in Boston Red Sox history. perhaps you can debate Dan D in front of him but that still leaves him top 3. I am hopeful C-BlOOM will supplant both of them and become our #2 GM/PoBA of all time. there is a good chance based on his history....

    when Mook hits FA he will 100% sign with the team that offers him the best contract. it wont matter if that is the tampa bay devil rays, the oakland athletics, the new york metropolitans, or the toronto blue jays. 11 / $345MM will be the contract.
  12. Slasher9
    and i want him to see if he can play those same handful of games at 1b. also, waking up in the morning is a gamble for a sore-backed player. jogging to first base and catching a throw > sprinting 35' towards a wall to run down a flyball, twisting and firing the ball 200'..... first base is where old players go to die. if the board certified dumbest player on the Red Sox (christian vazquez) can play first base then i'm sure a smart guy like JD can figure out the footwork to play 10 games per season at the position.....

    would be interesting to see historically who gets injured more frequently in the MLB - Corner Outfielder or First Baseman?
  14. Slasher9
    so did Giambi's steroid fueled 2 HR's that barely cleared the yankees stadium fence in game 7 2003 ALCS. should we take that AL Pennant away from NYY?
  15. Slasher9
    this.
  16. Slasher9
    right. but was that due to some nefarious injury (physical or mental) from playing 1b defensively? or was it because he didn't have the offensive skillset and prowess to being with of someone like..oh...i don't know...JD?
  17. Slasher9
    where did hatteburg end up playing? lol
  18. Slasher9
    hence the manager needs to give him reps in ST to see if he can do it. this could have been done the past 2 ST's. especially last ST when we had a year of JD "playing" OF under our belts. i think people are misunderstanding...no one is saying to hand JD the first baseman's job. some posters are suggesting that he should be tested out / trained there in ST and see how it goes. we already KNOW he can't play OF competently so we dont really need to see that anymore.
  19. Slasher9
    and how is this different then how i want him playing 1b in NL parks????
  20. Slasher9
    for the mega deals: both of Arod's should be red. machado should be red harper will be red i could argue that kershaw should be red for the other deals: stanton will be red cano should be red texiera should be red agon should be red kemp should be dead red
  21. Slasher9
    deal. but if he pulls a hammie or tweaks his back chasing down a flyball in the OF then im coming for you!
  22. Slasher9
    yes. i'm not going anywhere? also, even IF he does get hurt...that does not mean it was a wrong move.
  23. Slasher9
    thats why it should be looked at in ST. last season. and this season. and the past 2 offseason. i bet our new HoBO will make sure it happens this spring. sig bet anyone?
  24. Slasher9
    C-BlOOM gonna put WTF! on the hot seat now for sure. not a good look! first they make fun of woman abuse. now techie cheating. too bad Astros couldn't get big hits like that vs the Nats. i was wondering why all visiting teams were using multi signs with no one on base in houston during the playoffs. now we know why.
  25. Slasher9
    yes
