I hope someday you'll join us

Don't feel like spending that much for another starting pitcher. Our rotation is set. What we need is bullpen and defense.

Bradley would be the worst yet, but his OBP is so damn good.

I wouldn't be opposed to him batting leadoff either. He puts up an extremely good OBP usually. I don't care if he can't steal bases either. He has decent enough speed where he won't clog the bases like Konerko or Thome. A double from Bacon would get him in.

Damn, i really want JJ Hardy now.

if they ate most of his contract, maybe

Ozzie is also the guy that continuously played DeWayne Wise. Just because he is playing Getz, doesn't mean that Getz is the best option.

post some pics with your shirt off so i can tell if it was you i saw

i saw some kids from my highschool, but that's about it.

Better OPS and better defensively. OPS has a higher correlation to runs than BA.

Exactly. None talk about his defense, yet most of Nix' scouting reports rave about his defense.

There's a difference between a 20 year old coming from a completely differently country and going straight to AA and a 25 year old making his debut in the majors after years in the minors.

Whoever wrote that is a complete moron.

Rios should have killed that pitch =\

If nobody steps up too early tomorrow, I am going to make the IGT. It will be the most glorious IGT ever created.

This isn't MLB 09 the show...

It was pretty funny, but Hawk almost had a heart attack from it.

I have a feeling Floyd could be our best pitcher next year. All 4 of his pitches are nasty, and when his curveball is on, he is unhittable.

So this is what happens when our slumping hitters hit.

Wow.... Who's the jackass that gave Flowers the sign to bunt?

That's what I was thinking. If he can drop some weight, he would have a similar build to Beltre (except a bit stronger). I would be all for moving Beckham to 2nd if Viciedo was capable of being a decent major league 3b.

I'm not a huge fan of stolen bases. Sure they are good, but when you get caught stealing, it is a real easy way to kill the inning. Getz is great at base stealing and it is an asset to the team. Alexei is decent, but he has gotten caught a little over 1/4 of the time he has stolen. That barely makes his steals worth it. The higher slugging of Nix and Hardy combined would mean more extra base hits. That combined with their defense makes me like that combo more. I can see your argument about hanging on to Getz for his great base stealing and speed, but I think that Nix would be able to play great defense and solidify the infield next year (and i am a sucked for slugging and OPS).

can the search engine be fixed/ turned on?

I don't think it is over valuing him too much. He is a young, cheap shortstop who puts up above average numbers at the position. Boston could be going for Hardy though.
