Yup, for once I agree with you, Beav; if not for the schedulemaker, there would have been a big parade down Market Street in Philly. Hopefully, this kind of travesty won't happen again.

Iggy...uninformed?! Really...LOL
Sometimes its the deals that are not made that are the best ones...
Or the ones that follow those.
I guess Theo thinks that Bay's replacement Jeremy Hermafuck will do much better than 36 HR, 119 RBI.

Just when I thought you were down for a long winters nap...
...there you go again...No one could ever replace Manny either...or Nomar...or...

There is a stat called WAR (Wins above replacement) which, of course, Joe will never understand. Since 2002, Cameron has produced approximately the same WAR as David Ortiz, Aramis Ramirez, and Jim Thome.
Using WAR as an indicator of value, Jason Bay was worth $15.7 M last year for his 3.5 WAR; Mike Cameron, on the other hand, was worth $19.4 M for his 4.3 WAR. For less than half of what the Mets are paying Jason Bay, the Red Sox got a better player.
Theo Epstein is a fucking genius; Joe is a fucking moron®.
How do you replace Bay's 36 HR? With Cameron's 25 and by taking away a whole shitload of runs from the other side with his glove. Defense wins.
Last year, Damon, Cabrera, and Matsui hit 65 HR and knocked in 240; Johnson, Gardner, and Granderson hit 41 and knocked in 156. How you gonna replace them?

Rumps, you really know how to make me laugh, you and your silly useless yet "hopeful" grasping at straws stats...
Truth hurts, doesn't it?
Good Evening Gents,

Here we are expecting dumb and dumber to understand statistics and value equations...
What were we thinking?!?!

Man, you've really gone way downhill on your responses, 'Ol JoelCairo must be really getting on your last nerve. Tell me this, what the fuck difference does it matter who's listed as the 2009 WS Champion? Who's listed as the 2007, 2004, WS Champion. Oh, who won't be? Who gives a fuck? I hope your New Years resolution is to come up with something better than your typical asinine responses here.
Happy New Year my misinformed friend.

It's not that anyone is getting on iggy's nerves - it's just that he knows almost nothing about baseball. (He thinks Mickey Mantle is another name for a fireplace. He thinks Barry Bonds are an investment you purchase if you are patriotic. He thinks Willie Mays is the month that comes after Willie Aprils.) I have to be fair though - he knows more about baseball than he does about hockey, because he knows less than nothing about hockey.
Comon' Merlot...this is a sucker bet if I ever saw one...lol
And joel - you're just not giving the poor guy a chance with a post like yours...
