  1. I've been there before and I can only find a player's VORP when I click on stats. Where do I find it under?
  2. I don't know if it's a great idea to bring in Girardi. He's like the same age as these guys. With this club I think you have to bring in an older guy. Otherwise Girardi might not get the same amount of respect.
  3. I would, but we have to get some really good pitching in return. That also brings the question for what 3rd baseman to get as well.
  4. Who will win? I can't see the Mets losing, but I said the same thing about the Yanks.
  5. Well, I guess it's time to move on. Go A's, but I think the Tigers will win.
  6. Where can find I find stats on WARP?
  7. I didn't make it clear who I was talking about before. My bad. As for Jason Schmidt or Ted Lilly, I don't want either of those. Jason is too old and I just don't like Lilly.I've heard the Yanks are the frontrunners for Matsuka and although Seattle might have a bigger Asian community, that doesn't mean they will make the best offer. George is probablly pretty furious right now and ready to get some pitching.
  8. I don't want Jason Schmidt and I highly doubt he's coming here. Hopefully, they learned their lessons and will not take that root. The Yankees could probablly get Zito for the right price as well.From what I hear the Yankees and the Mariners are very interested in Matsuzaka. I think the reason the Mariners have such strong ties to the Asian leagues is because they are owned by Nintendo. The Mets and Red Sox are semi-interested. What makes these Japanese players interesting though is the fact that they generate a lot of Japanese income into a team's merchandise. I wonder how much the Yanks have
  9. Well, it's been a rough weekend in the world of sports for me.
  10. Because he was a one time wonder. He doesn't throw hard, he's not really young, and he struggled in the minors all year. We need young hard throwers.
  11. Well, getting Randy didn't work out that well. The year before he had a Cy Young like year so I can't fault them. Hopefully, they go younger this year. There is talk about that Japanese kid and Zito during the offseason.
  12. Yep. I guess I'll root for the A's now, although the Tigers are going to be the favorites. Their team ERA, K/9, K/BB, and Whip were better all season in a tougher division. While the A's defense is better, their offense stinks. They are ranked 11th in the AL in OPS and only ahead of the Devil Rays in batting average. They hardly ever steal and are 10th in the AL in RBI's. The A's have a big challenge ahead of them.
  13. Yep...I was expecting this when they lost Friday night. Piniella and George are good friends and after this I think Torre will be out. After he's been there 11 years I think George should let him stay his final year, but I don't blame him. This club needs to change somehow. These are the only position players I am really sure of:C- Posada2B- CanoSS- JeterRF- AbreuCF- DamonLF- Matsui There isn't a chance in hell Sheffield is coming back and there's a decent chance that Arod isn't coming back. However, Arod and Piniella know each other and maybe Piniella could fix him. I don't know. This whole t
  14. Unless you're the Twins Santanas and Lirianos don't grow on trees.
  15. Zito? He's an AL pitcher, won a Cy Young, has a great postseason resume, is a lefty, and he's not old. I think he would be a perfect fit for the Yankees.Zito, Wang, ?, ?, ?. I think the Yankees need to resign Mussina for maybe 2 years. I don't think he's all worn out yet and he can be dominant. He would would be a good 3rd starter. We have no choice, but to keep Johnson as a 4-5. Corey Lidle, Jaret Wright, and Carl Pavano have got to go. Phillip Hughes probablly might be available next year, but I don't think, nor hope that they will rush him in here like the Red Sox did. I've actually heard r
  16. Ramon Hernandez is pretty good defensively and can hit. Posada is solid on both offense and defense. However, there is like no one in the NL. Paulino maybe? He has no power though.
  17. Ok...I guess it's time to get my mind off the Yanks and talk about some football. Jacksonville is the team that ended our season last year so maybe we can get some revenge.
  18. I found this interesting. The prevention of Alzheimer's lies in marijuana:Video Link
  19. My awards:AL:MVP- JeterCy Young- Santana (obviously)Comeback- Thomas (not too long ago I was picking Thome. Although their improvement is very similar to last year I think I have to give it to Thomas since he not only came back, but carried this team.)ROY- Verlander (though there are a handful of good young pitchers who deserve it.)Relief- Nathan (sad to see I'm not giving it to Rivera. There were a lot of really good closers this year.)First Team:C- Mauer1B- Morneua2B- Cano SS- Jeter (Of course, MVP.)3B- Arod (Have fun on the Angels.)RF- DyeCF- Sizemore (Wells is close.)LF- Manny (Only, becau
  20. Next year I think the lineup should look something like this:LF: MatsuiCF: DamonRF: AbreuC: Posada2B: CanoSS: JeterThat leaves questions for 1st, 3rd, and DH. The Yankees need to pick up a really good first baseman or suffer the defense of Giambi. If they go the Giambi root they probablly will sign Bernie to be the DH, which makes sense. As for 3rd we need to get rid of Arod. He just can't respond to the pressure. It makes me miss Brosius badly. One thing about postseason baseball is we need to be able to stop the dominate pitching. This lineup can't do that, because they aren't very good at t
  21. This sucks. Who the hell is going to want Arod and for what?
  22. Shut up. The Red Sox were elinated a month ago. However, we need some serious rebuilding.
  23. This is why I don't bet on sports. Even every Red Sox fan around here thought Rogers was going to get lit up last night. What can I say? He pitched the game of his life and shocked the world.Man... me and my big mouth. I deserve to deal with this ****. I can't wait until 4:00. Maybe Jaret Wright will pitch the game of his life.
