Sure, Smoltz is a big name and may very well turn out to be the best off-season signing, but I believe the improvements made to the bullpen will show the...
I just saw two of the baseball preview nagazines. Lindy's and Sporting News both named the Yankees as division winner, based on the current roster. How is the...
... How? Here's how: 1) C.C. Sabathia. 2) A.J. Burnett. 3) Mark Texeira. ... I think all 3 teams improved, but the Yanks(at least theoretically; on paper)...
It was really easy to miss this at the time, but the Red Sox purchased the Salem(Va.) Avalanche, a minor league baseball team in the high-A Carolina League,...
Larry, that is a great question.. When one looks at the Yankee roster it does not overwhelm. Besides the fact that Matsui can't play the outfield, Damon is...
LMAO, "How? Here's how: 1) C.C. Sabathia. -----> replaces Mussina., do you really think that CC is going to win more than 20 games with the workload he has...
I don't for a minute think the Yankees are this juggernaut that some areas of the media are dubbing them right now but... 1 ) CC - He will probably win as many...
I agree with most of what you say, except that I believe you are underrating the Texeira/Giambi upgrade. First of all, Giambi only played 83 games last year...
No, the hangover didn't last very long for me, if there was one at all. I was happy and excited about it all, but it didn't effect me as much as I thought it...
... Ever since CC first came on the scene, he's been regarded as one of the better pitchers in the AL, if not all of MLB. If there's been a season since his...
Excellent post! I couldn't agree more. Look, we all like the Red Sox and want the Yankees to fail miserably, but we throw all objectivity and common sense...
Jeff, you just sent me back to the days of my youth when there was a Sox team in Winter Haven of the single A Florida State League. I began following the FSL...
sean [ozzrvd666@...] has sent you a link to an article from projo.com: http://www.projo.com/redsox/content/projo_20090205_red_sox_wilkerson.226df6ea.html...
Not a single ounce of objectivity in that article, none. Derek Jeter is probably the least effective defensive SS in the AL..at minimum,, two of the most...
so Jeter is not better than Lugo/Lowrie? right. ... From: NebraskaRSfan <airchief43@...> Subject: RE: [friendlyfenway] projo.com article from sean To:...
Sean, I never made that comparison. What I will state is that Donaldson has used subjectivity to an illogical extreme to make a point. I will also state that...
Seasn, On subjective notes, Theo Epstein may have done his best work to date during this past off-season. Here is a blog that points out some things that many...
Wouldn't disagree with your overall point at all Ron in terms of the article but your comment re Posada and Penny is ignoring all evidence as Posada has proven...
Sorry, I was not taking issue with you and I agree with you. Having watched Jeter get so many big hits and make many great plays over the years, I just have...
Good counter point Rich.' It shall be interesting to see how this pans out. I am reticent to buy in on Posada coming back and performing well because as I...
Yes, I noticed a few omissions on both sides, including the bullpen additions by the Sox (Ramirez/Saito) and also Nick Swisher and Xavier Nady on the Yankee...
There is a considerable amount of material to digest to allow reasoned assessments of the probable outcomes for 2009. I am a many decades long, unabashed...
I am not particularly worried whether he will be ready before May I seriously doubt he will be effective for any significant period during the season as a...
Thank you...I have been posting for weeks that the Sox bullpen improvements have not been given enough attention. I'm also a decades-long Sox fan, and I'm...
