  1. you're not the only one. like i said before, i really believe this is the year Devers goes down for an extended period. then who do we have to play third?
  2. thanks for clearing that up. my bad. still glad the Mariners turned it down as it was the Sox basically giving Casas away to clear a bad contract in Yoshida.
  3. many believe Casas has huge potential and trading him now would be selling low. but, like you said, i'd want to see what he might get dealt for. there was a rumor that the Mariners turned down a Casas for Castillo trade and i'm glad they did. stupid move on their part. but what is equally stupid is the Red Sox even making this offer -basically giving away Casas for nothing when they could have signed a FA for the same money or less. btw... Castillo's bWAR last year was the same as Pivetta.
  4. that should have made him more attractive to the Sox and their desire to have an entire rotation of rehabbing pitchers.
  5. i thought things might change with Breslow and Theo, but boy was i wrong.
  6. never underestimate the stupidity and cheapness of the Sox front office.
  7. we should have done that.
  8. yeah, Bell's offer is far too high and your's is more than fair. there's also a chance he sucks too. after all, he doesn't have an extensive history of success.
  9. i wish they would sign Bregman as i have a gut feeling that this is Raffy's year to miss significant playing time from injuries. or maybe it's just gas.
  10. i hate to state the obvious, but people naturally want to be associated with success, whether it's friends, businesses or whatever. the Dodgers commitment to winning (versus Henry's commitment to his wallet) has made them very very successful. this success has players wanting to play for them. does any free agent really want to play for the Marlins or A's? what i'm saying is: i don't think location is that much of a factor.
  11. how they've treated Yoshida. really? they seriously overpaid the guy, but they can't help it if he sucks in the field and at running and in hitting for power. that's on him. they've done everything possible to let him prove he belongs in the big leagues.
  12. no, not at all. wonder what he's wanting.
  13. Red Sox showing "interest" in AJ Minter.
  14. I would love to see them get Quinn Matthews but i'm not trading Casas for him. i know Hence is rated higher. not sure why though. and Jimmy Crooks has the potential at catcher. dude can hit.
  15. conversely, my interest in the Red Sox is falling.
  16. sad but true, i believe.
  17. send this to Breslow. apparently him and the clowns that work for him have no freakin clue about this.
  18. Henry will offer him $5,000, a 1984 Buick Lesabre, a rick of seasoned firewood and a couple Sonic coupons. then Brez will tell us how they made a legitimate offer before he signs with the Dodgers.
  19. oh, i get it, i was just saying that there needs to be a better way to quantify a "win". it's BS the way the do it now.. it's been around since the beginning, so i don't think it's going away.
  20. i was talking about a better way to define Wins.
  21. there should definitely be a better way, and like Moon said, historical games could even be reanalyzed.
  22. fourth in revenue and eleventh in payroll. hmmmm.....
  23. didn't think about that. you're probably right.
  24. as it stands, W/L is no perfect measure, but there should be a better way to quantify a "win" for a pitcher -especially since it's a stat that's not going away and so many people look to.
