VP. How do you work this lineup with Granderson?

Wells can't sit now against all righties? Most guys are righties

Do you work a Wells/Gardner/ichiro daily platoon?

Trying to figure this out


Wells at 3b! :)

let's worry abotu that when all of those guys are healthy at once.

He tried to turn on me - I turned off the computer.

He was sad cause I called him out on the "link or leave forever" shit that he must have on shorthand type so that he just hits one key for it.

saw that.

Wells will be the full time DH against lefties and a bench bat against righties

When Hafner inevitably goes down (all I asked from him is to stay healthy until Grandy and/or Tex get back, and he has), Wells will probably be the full time DH

Down is sort of right..... Wells isn't nearly as good as he's playing

He's done nicely so far, but that's mostly just because HW has to be wrong about everything

Honest question for Sox fans whove paid attention to this type of thing in the past....

Yankees have the best WINNING PERCENTAGE in the AL East as of today.

So, how does the scoreboard standings at Fenway list the teams today? My guess, Yankees will be listed after both Boston and Batlimore in 3rd... but I could certainly be wrong as I've never bothered looking in an instance like this.

Just wondering if Giuseppi's running that board out there.


No, they will put the Yanks in first. when it's a tie, they don't...but when the MLB standings are what they are, they don't fuck with them.

Maybe so. But is that something you would do in the midst of him being the second most valuable offensive player on the team? Or do you let him fall off the cliff first? Hafner earned the everyday against righties role and I can't imagine Wells is just relegated to a righty DH right now

This is a discussion by the way

I'd platoon him and Ichiro....that guys a useless bag of piss...not a L/R platoon...I'd have Ichiro face the Verlander-esque type righties...and play Wells every other day until he again realizes he's Vernon Wells...then I'd DFA him and consider myself fortunate to get what I did out of him...

i musta missed the last part...what the fuck did uno say

Ask Francis.

To his credit, he didn't take the Snoogins path of righteous indignation about it at all, and it was pretty awful, and shows what a sick fuck Uno is.

And bad news for Dr. Jack Ramsay... his announcing career is over as he plans to begin battle on personal medical condition starting today. That just doesn't sound good to me. Dude is 88, so I'm sure it's not tonsilitis.

ICON in this town still, and always will be.

Even though the Red Sox are in 2nd place, the standings on the Green Monstahhhh will show the Red Sox in 1st place, just so their fans can feel better.

Wells is gonna be DH vs. Lefties and likely off the bench vs. righties...which I think is a mistake.

I would ride him while he is hot and put him at DH 6 days a week until he cools off around june 15th - then he can be an off the bench bat.
Based on the last two years, Wells seems to play better when he plays often.

I was posting before you, dumbass...

And they've had a revolving door at closer since 2003....they've only got it right twice...Paps, and Foulke...

Nothing new here....probably has a lot to do with the same person running the franchise and doing all the FO hirings....

dumbass?!
that's not called for sir!

And one of the two was key to 04 and 07

Then the same management let him go for BARD! the future!

and hasn't had a closer since. all that money and nothing.

#1 Yes!

#2 Fuck You. She'd do it if you asked her

#3 I don't have a "shot" at Uno either, but he's completely delusional about himself, and his "lawyering" abilities, and yeah, he's a sick fuck.

Yeah Uno has a prob with bigots but it's Ok for him to attack those he perceives(from the internet) to be stupid and the disabled...

Piece of work that dude is

You play the deliberately wrong and stupid angle better than anyone else.


hint...this is not complimentary.
