Forum Post: Gordon Edes says bat Crawford 2nd
I want to see Crawford bat near the top of the order, since that is what he is being paid for and that is most likely where he will most comfortable (and therefore most productive). But it seems a wa more »

I don't think that everyone's stats will go down. Not a single Sox batter gets 100 RBI? I'd be shocked. I also do not see Bailey getting only 18 saves out of 36 chances simply because he will not ge more »

Forum Post: Mark Melancon!!!!!
You get to hear his wife say the name in the shark video. She says it differently than the pronunciation one of the Sox beat writers provided when he was traded to the Sox: accent on the second syll more »

Forum Post: Who would you start at shortstop?
In Response to Re: Who would you start at shortstop?: The only true SS is Iglesias. If the RS are going to continue to play utility guys at SS, the defense will suffer. The offense is good enough even more »

Forum Post: Realistic Yankee Thread
Beantowne had it right. There are soooo many threads that should be removed that aren't. And one that is truly about baseball, and about how the Sox will compete against their ALE rivals, gets delet more »

BTW, Roberta Flack is a better singer than Whitney was. Her version of "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" is a model of great singing, from phrasing to breath control and diction, that song is a lesso more »

Forum Post: Bill James:"Dwight Evans belongs in Cooperstown" : An open letter to the Hall of Fame
Oliver was a marginal OFer. That is not to be confused with whether he was a good hitter or not. He was also marginal at 1b, whih is why he ended up a DH. The guys who get into the hall generally a more »

Forum Post: What 3 pitchers Will Fill the Last 3 Slots on the Sox Opening Day Pitching Staff?
I also expect Bowden to be traded. I think if Doubront proves healthy and fit, but not ready to crack the rotation, that he will also be traded. Don't expect either to really be on the team this yea more »

Start naming them. James's point was that during his playing time, there was only one RFer who was more deserving, and that one (Winfield) is in the hall. more »

Watched the same report, just a few minutes ago. A few flaws in their thinking/pontificating: Plesac says the Yankees have all the offensive power. He lists Granderson, Cano, ARod, Teixeira, the list more »

Forum Post: What 3 pitchers Will Fill the Last 3 Slots on the Sox Opening Day Pitching Staff?
I think there will be some dealing before April, but assuming no additions or trades, I vote for Doubront, Bowden and Cook. Bowden to join the BP, Doubront to be a swing man, and Cook to be the #5 st more »

Evans also played the sun field in a whole lot more day games than Drew ever did. Drew was darned good, but not as good as Evans. more »
I stand corrected. It may also imply injury. But, the OP also has only 6 saves for Melancon. the Sox will need more than 24 saves in 2012, and if Bailey and Melancon can not provide them, someone e more »
