QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 08:02 PM) I completely agree with that, however everyone is entitled to their opinion and there is really no reason to argue over someone else's opinion because in most instances it just won't change. This whole Timo thing needs to be put to rest. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Qwerty was the one who decided to beat the dead horse again. Look at post #215.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 04:11 PM) His numbers still suck. We could have signed someone for league mininum and they would have put up numbers like his. He is a waste of one million dollars. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Qwerty, I gave you the raw numbers, not complex Bill James multiply by 3 s***. Find someone one for a million dollars or less with these numbers to be used for our bench. QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 04:18 PM) :headshake Find someone who had 8 assists and 4 DP in 615 IP, and batted .412 with runners in scoring position and two outs. Timo Perez (career RISP) 289 AB .318 AVG .350 OBP 3 HR 125 RBI 20 BB 28 K men on two outs: .289 BA, .710 OPS man on third less than two outs: .462 BA, .990 OPS <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have yet to hear an answer to one of my other questions too. "Who gives a f*** how much Timo is making? We filled all of our holes, and KW has said that there will be money to spend at the deadline if we need it."

QUOTE(qwerty @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 07:51 PM) The stats are not crap because you either do not like them or understand them. Of course i do not think a-rod ever deserved that much money. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The games are not played on paper. You learn more about baseball by watching what goes on during the game, not staring at a box score putting together equations to come up with a new stat. Baseball is a game, not a damn science.

Is that whom it's dedicated "to?"

QUOTE(qwerty @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 04:54 PM) I know one thing. Everything i have seen about the sox bringing him back and giving him a raise laughed at it. Timo's ops+ last year was 58 which is just disgusting and his warp is virtually non existent. His three win shares are awesome too. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok, and do any of those Bill James stats crap take into account his throw out of Bret Boone to end that game in September, or his bunt with the bases loaded to tie the Twins game just to name a few great Timo moments? Do you think any of those statheads actually watched as many Sox games as you or me last year? Maybe the Yankees should release A-Rod. I mean, does he really deserve $18 million?

I really get a kick out of people who use the internet to complain about globalization.

QUOTE(Randar68 @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 01:20 PM) Uribe is a Boras client, so what? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No he isn't. He changed his agent before signing that three year deal.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 04:28 PM) the argument for borchard is his upside..... also Borchard is a switch hitter which always helps your cause. And we dont pay Borchard a million dollars <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Last time I checked, the Sox didn't have any problems with their payroll, and KW said there is some money for the trade deadline if they need it. What good is a switch hitter if he can't f***ing hit? :headshake

QUOTE(qwerty @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 04:25 PM) Bench players do not just come in with runners on. They come in at all different times. With people in scoring position, not with people in scoring position, need to get a bunt down, etc. Do you not agree he is over paid at one million dollars? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No I don't think he's overpaid because 1.) he was the only guy who could bunt on our team, and 2.) we filled all of our holes within our budget. Why b**** about a $150,000 raise for a guy who was clutch last season? Are you related to Reinsdorf?

QUOTE(qwerty @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 04:22 PM) How has hit with none on in his entire career? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not as well. But why worry about his numbers without runners on when he will be used as a bench player? EDIT: Timo's numbers without runners on are stillbetter than Borchard's, so I really don't understand why you have decided to beat a dead horse, again. :headshake

Should've brought in Timo with that runner on third with two outs!!!

:headshake Hawk should've said "stretch!" The ball would've cleared the fence.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 7, 2005 -> 03:20 PM) I've waitied all winter for Hawk to boast. Did he say, "Let's see how much of a genius he is without two, 20-game winners." <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "That ought to be interesting out there in Oakland this year without 3 20 game winners." "If you have 3 20 win pitchers, you can play any kind of style of baseball you want."

Hawk taking a shot at moneyball.

A double, followed by two singles, yet no run.

Beat the f***ing Tigers. Win on the west coast (no long trip this year ) 1000 IP from the starting pitching.

I'd have to say Lil' Jon and Timbaland put out the best beats. I've been listening to "Who am I" by Twista a lot lately.

QUOTE(shagar69 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 09:08 PM) I love In Da Club w/ R kelly and Luda. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks for reminding me to download that!

He must still be upset from that fat kid spitting up Doritos all over him in Kindergarten Cop.
