  1. I won't root for him, just as I didn't root for AP. I hope he strikes out every AB and gets sent to the minors. Like all of them.
  2. All for playing baseball? It's not a game. These guys work very, very, hard. It's a job, like any other.
  3. You have to give up something to get something. There should be pain.
  4. I doubt he'll remember this a year from now. Not even a little.
  5. Based on the twins adding a prospect and a draft pick? And, apparently, the sox get Downs, who is higher rated, and a catching prospect to boot. Again, someone help me understand the anger at a team doing what teams do.
  6. I'm not thrilled about the money, unless they deal at deadline. I suppose to opens up that possibility more, which has value. I'm just not sure it has pick 67 and Raley value. That's two years now they've sold picks for money. But, if they don't believe that Gaterol is a starter, this still makes sense to do in some combination. Overall, I like the deal, just not sure I love the deal.
  7. Have you read any of the links posted here about what teams know before they see medicals? They know as much as us. Then their doctors get details. It isn't reasonable that those details made them fear things more?
  8. To be clear, you believe an agent, and think a front office is making baseball decisions based on fan reaction?
  9. Interestingly, some of the baseball people I follow on Twitter are basically loling the Sox..... So maybe I'm not quite right
  10. The vitriol at a team that got the medical details, and then decided they didn't like the idea as much, is amazing to me. They did nothing wrong at all.
  11. I really don't think the new FO, run by an ex-Ray, is making baseball decisions based on fan reactions. Seriously.
  12. And he's really not that young.......So, ya, if they want POWER on the bench, he's an obvious choice.
  13. No, it can't be simple. Everyone is out to get "us" and screw "us" over.
  14. It's not on the red Sox. They aren't wrong for doing this. If they don't like his medicals, the deal needs changing or cancelling. That's how sports deals work. I think this reinforces what some of us thought about Gaterol and his long term value.....
  15. The Ryu ship sailed, so I don't get this......they couldn't get Ryu, apparently.....
  16. What ace is out there right now? they still have plenty of prospects to deal at the deadline, if there is a great pitcher out there. Plenty.
  17. Certainly unexpected. Four years of a guy that has been good or better in the majors for six years of a guy that hasn't really pitched in the majors. It seems to make sense. As chief said, if you won't pay in free agency, this is the price you pay.
  18. Motley Fool loves ISRG.
  19. If I watch it, I'll want to subscribe....
  20. Wish I had cash. Would have made four percent yesterday.....
  21. I agree......and I share your disappointment, but mine is mild.
