Good addition to the list. He hardly played, but still...
-
I nominate: Carl Crawford Pablo Sandoval Julio Lugo Hanley Ramirez Edgar Renteria (basically cost us $40M for 1 year) Jack Clark Dice-K
-
I'm not saying the reports were true. I'm just saying there were some reports the Sox were at the top of the list over 2 weeks ago. This is not "new" news, and the news has since changed to reflect we are not the front-runners (and maybe never were.)
-
He certainly had "issues" with the Sox, but had an .870 OPS with the Sox. Did you mean Carl Crawford?
-
It was reported weeks ago, the Sox were the the "leaders" in signing him.

This was reported and talked about several weeks ago. I know we have very little to talk about, but why pretend this is something new?
-
It's not news, though. News implies "new." We heard this rumor weeks ago.
-
Rasing to $1M sounds about right, to me, but that's about $430K more to maybe 15 players on most teams, unless you mean to everyone on the 40 man, then it might be 20-30 players for most teams, or about $9-$14M additional salary cost to most teams.
-
Something we agree on.
-
Al Kaline: Mr. Tiger Arnie Banks: Mr. Cub Tony Gwynn Mr. Padre Mr. Perfect: Tom Browning and Magisterial Mister McGraw (John McGraw)
-
Should I start a new thread titled, "Sox Eliminated by Astros!?"
-
It wasn't "news." This was known weeks ago.
-
Caffeine? Something else legal? We'll likely never know. Just like we'll never know about many players tested or never tested.
-
Fine. Just don't call me a "head-scratcher." LOL
-
Even that is old news.
-
Is calling someone a "name-caller" name-calling? Is calling someone by their given name, "name-calling," as well?
-
Exactly, and how many times have rumors been wrong?
-
Does it make a difference if the average fan does not relate to the negotiations of the wants of each side? They just want to see baseball. Who they blame, if there is no baseball, might not matter much either.
-
This issue and solution seems like the most obvious fix and not extremely costly solution. If the majority of players make min wage or are pre-arb, it seems easy to just please them and get a majority vote from the player. Raising their salaries by a lot would all but ensure their votes and would not really affect the bottom line all that much, except for maybe the very stingiest teams, who pay almost all their roster min or near min wage. There are more issues that need to be settled, but tis seems like an easy give by the owners.
-
The financial cost of JBJ vs Renfroe- not that we had to keep Renfroe, even if we did not acquire JBJ, make the fact that he may be a 4th OF'er a bit strange, UNLESS Bloom really likes the prospects and/or thought Renfroe was way over-valued.
-
The only year Papi led MLB in OPS was his final season. He had over 35 HRs and 104 RBI in all of his last 3 seasons!
-
Bloom must really like these prospects or thinks Renfroe was a negative value.
-
I get them, all too well.
-
Indeed, but it's good to see some movement. I think the players gave up a big thing. Let's see what the owners respond with.
-
Hearing some of these owners cry poverty is a joke.
