are you saying bmac is a better pitcher in 2007 than garcia? that's nuts.

QUOTE(salty99 @ Dec 7, 2006 -> 11:16 AM) Oh I don't know, maybe because he's an expert on pitching. LOL.

they've added an extra year to rule 5 eligibility i think.

i didn't really have my heart set on a championship in 2007 anyway.

so what are they going to do with the $10 mil?

ouch. was schueler the gm?

who were the three promising players?

that trade would suck.

as far as i recall, the pirates left him unprotected in the rule 5 draft and we took him. they probably thought they'd sneak him through. pirates gave us deleon to get him back. he had awesome stuff in his younger days. we then traded him for lance johnson.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Dec 4, 2006 -> 04:14 PM) Is it just me or do other people think Brian Anderson could out-produce Aaron Rowand with the bat next season? i thought he would last year. one would think he could hit .250 and 15 which wouldn't be much different than rowand. but baseball is a funny game. you never know WTF is going to happen.

so it would be OK to poison your opponents pregame buffet?

he'd be better than pods!

rowand's OPS+ was 86 last year. Pods' was 76. yuck.

how about Jack Cust? dude hit 30 HR and 140 BB in AAA. about the same defense as pods. ha ha.

KW has been pissing away draft picks for years with similar moves.

that's a lot of f***ing dough

yay. we signed the white figgins and didn't have to give anything up for him.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Nov 30, 2006 -> 12:38 AM) It's very difficult to make the '07 Sox a better club in the absence of Crede, and that's why I think Crede will still be with the Sox on opening day, no matter what KW says to the media. i concur. with this team we need to go for it all this year and not worry about 2-3 years down the road.

the improvement would hardly make up for the loss of crede.

i don't see pods being much worse than figgins. phil rogers suggested figgins in CF and pods in LF. how stupid is that? and he's the local baseball "expert."

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Nov 28, 2006 -> 01:47 PM) But why let facts ruin an otherwise good argument: "barry is an asshole, lets ruin his life." now there's an idea i can get behind.

i can't stand that we're crying poverty again just like it was 1987. we can't sign dye. we can't sign crede. we have to trade one of our starters. we can't sign any free agents. for crissakes i thought those days were gone after last year.

what's the appeal of figgins?

as bad as it is now, the mid to late 80s were worse.

riske at 1.8 mil isn't a bad insurance policy. better than augustin montero or whatever the hell that guy's name is.
