A.J. Pierzynski to Red Sox... Salty on way out?

[redseat]

Is Tuesday too early for a pub crawl?

Yeah, considering I'm not a drinker....

I guess that means I actually have to get Christmas presents for people

I don't like this signing either. But in this day and age the saying is "what have you done for me lately?" and lately Salty hasn't done it. I don't get why they went the old age player especially for the catching position! I mean do they really think Lavarnway is ready?

I'm not too good on Red Sox farm system but do they even have a C down there?

Ellsbury isn't coming back to the sox...

The Navajo coming back is admittedly not a safe bet, but neither is it's opposite.

A variation of my signature line might be applicable here.

The fact that I did not even consider Christmas shopping says a lot of bad things about me....

I don't think it's just injuries. Coghlan's batted .242/.307/.352 (79 OPS+) in 1017 PA since his rookie year. He was demoted twice (though in 2011, it was voided because of an injury).

My bad! I have seen that all over the place though!

Does the Fister deal make it a "given" the Tigers re-sing Scherzer long-term?

Tigers aren't signing Scherzer. They aren't even talking and won't. Tigers are going to use the money to go shopping for a LF, closer, and bullpen arms. Choo, Ellsbury or Beltran will end up in DTW. So will Nathan or Wilson.

As of today, I see a new team being mentioned as a possibly landing spot for Ellsbury.

The Tigers.

With both Fister & Fielder leaving, they now have a few extra $$ to make this at least possible.

Gotta love Seattle Seahawk fans. Not only are they loud, they are a force of nature.

Enough to cause what otherwise appeared to be a minor earthquake, between a 1-2 in scale.

The design of the stadium is often cited as a major reason for the over-the-top crowd noise.
Architect James Poulson says he didn’t set out to design the stadium so noise would be enhanced. Rather, he calls it “a happy accident.” He says Seahawks owner Paul Allen wanted to re-create the feeling of attending games in the University of Washington’s Husky stadium. So, the architect designed cantilevered decks and a partial roof covering. He says when choosing between sound absorbing materials and hard surfaces they went with hard surfaces.

Those hard surfaces are positioned perfectly to deflect the crowd noise back onto the field,” he said. But Poulson says it’s the fans who’ve figured out how to maximize the acoustic features. “Now that the fans have discovered they can set off seismic recorders and create earthquakes (laughs) I think that’s a self-reinforcing cycle,” he said

FOX Sports report the Tigers are close to finalizing a deal with Joe Nathan.

 

[redseat]

1 YEAR DEAL WORTH $8.25 MILLION

NOT WORTH IT!

 

[jalopy]

If it keep Tori Hunter from going end over end, it is worth it.

sound boards? a little help with speakers? did bose come out with a special edition crowd noise speaker?

no matter how hard they scream in Foxboro, it's not that loud!
