2007 Major League Baseball Season

[ProudestAnt]

he also got to face an injured damon, eyechart, melky, and will nieves. aka no matsui and no posada. pitchers have the advantage facing a team for the first time since hitters dont know whats coming Do you think Sox fans care who's in the lineup? It's the Yankees. That's all that matters, just like Yanks fans. If you played our AAA team and Wang threw a no-hitter, there'd be no astrik next to it, you'd boast for months that Wang no-hit the Red Sox...

question is, do red sox fans care in general? could they just throw anyone out there, let them pitch bad and then get cheered off the mound?

and no, i'd def overlook the no hitter if mccarthy and the AAA for lifers were the only ones batting.

[SoRight24]

Break out the brooms.

It's because this is the first time he's pitched against the Yankees. Next time he throws against the Bombers, if he gives up 5 ERs, you better believe he won't get a standing O...

beckett didnt pitch too well yesterday and he got an ovation. and thats not the first time he's pitched poorly against the yankees

[SoRight24]

Why did we even try putting Okajima out there?

He's pitched the last two games...

[ProudestAnt]

beckett didnt pitch too well yesterday and he got an ovation. and thats not the first time he's pitched poorly against the yankees Yea, but he also retired 15 of the last 17, which is a solid outing considering his history of implosions...

[ProudestAnt]

Oh good, Timlin's warming up...

[ProudestAnt]

Oh jesus fuck I can't take this...

[crashintome202]

Yea, but he also retired 15 of the last 17, which is a solid outing considering his history of implosions...
so you're supposed to ignore his awful first couple of innings?

[ProudestAnt]

so you're supposed to ignore his awful first couple of innings? Not ignore, but recognize his solid finish and give him credit for it...

[SoRight24]

Why are you even arguing about this?

Does it really honestly fucking matter?

[crashintome202]

Not ignore, but recognize his solid finish and give him credit for it...
its still a bad pitching performance and he knew it after he had his little tamptrum in the dugout

[crashintome202]

Why are you even arguing about this?

Does it really honestly fucking matter?
yes because its redicilous to give credit for bad pitching preformances. its also annoying as fuck to have sox fans booing every time a ball 6 inches off the plate doesnt get called a strike.

[ProudestAnt]

its still a bad pitching performance and he knew it after he had his little tamptrum in the dugout It definitely wasn't the most desirable outing for him, but after the second inning, he locked it down and gave the team a chance to win. Everyone knows you don't want to get into a slug match with the Yankees. After the first two innings, Beckett dug down and allowed the offense to relax and stop pressing...

[SoRight24]

yes because its redicilous to give credit for bad pitching preformances. its also annoying as fuck to have sox fans booing every time a ball 6 inches off the plate doesnt get called a strike.

Yeah.....I've never heard a Yankees fan do that. :rolleyes

[ProudestAnt]

i like the slugfests though:lorraine

[ProudestAnt]

i like the slugfests though:lorraine Yea, if we had a lineup like your's, I would too...:p

[crashintome202]

Yea because that doesn't happen at EVERY ballpark in America...
it happens ALOT more at fenway. i've had philly fans, mets fans, marlin fans all tell me sox fans are the worst at it.

[crashintome202]

Yea, if we had a lineup like your's, I would too...:p
sox lineup is probably right there today since we have no posada and auto out melky in the lineup

why? yeah hes messed up but hes still an amazing hitter

[ProudestAnt]

why? yeah hes messed up but hes still an amazing hitter This was actually a discussion we had last season that I just remembered. He doesn't want to play in the all-star game. Tells people he doesn't want to, and in fact, doesn't play (hasn't for at least the last 3 years). So I hope people don't vote for him so I don't have to defend his right not to play in the game...

then it goes into the "shouldnt he show up since the fans voted for him" arguement...

[SoRight24]

Come on Tek...

We need a few more runs.

[Trippin4136]

If the Yankees had any semblance of a pitching staff (or a refreshed bullpen), the outcomes of these games would be different.

Friday, that was all Rivera. I don't think his arm strength is up to where it needs to be. He's pitched so little this year, that he has had trouble spotting pitches, and it gets hammered. Saturday actually, the pen gave up no runs, the bats just went cold after the 3rd inning.

And we see what's happened tonight. Proctor is exhausted, no way around it. Torre is going to flame him out by Memorial Day at this pace.

This being said, there is no guarantee that any of the injured guys who come back, will help alleviate the problem. The bullpen has pitched almost 6 weeks worth of work in 3 weeks time.

Lastly, I don't think there is anything that special about Boston's starting rotation, at least against the Yankees. All 3 of their big guys got touched up this weekend, and I don't think it's a fluke. The Sox bats kept them in and won them games - credit it to their lineup.

[ProudestAnt]

<--- Real Deal bitches, watch him go to work...

[Trippin4136]

Seriously, at this point, the Yankees need about a week straight of their starts going 6 or 7 innings. Or else, the Yankees pen will be in this condition all summer.

Shit, when they go to Colter Bean to pitch with the big club, you know they're in trouble. I've watched him pitch a lot in AAA. There is a reason why he holds the Yankees' minor league record for appearances.

torre BLEW the friday game. i think he took andy out too early. i'll live with it since proctor got through the inning. but why not keep him in there. everyone knows myers sucks and wont get ortiz out. hell bring in henn over myers to face ortiz like on saturday. then, he pulls giambi out for KT so you lose one of your best hitters in the 9th. then, he brings mo in the 8th which he swore he wouldnt. the 9th torre got butt fucked for subbing giambi... then saturday he goes aheads and puts melky leading off. what a bone head move that is. JOE IT WAS A FLUKE! MELKY ISNT THAT GOOD! Why isnt jeter batting leadoff? hes a better leadoff hitter than damon but thats for another day...

[ProudestAnt]

Agreed. You could tell how pissed Pettitte was when Torre took him out after he struck out Ortiz (or was it Drew?). I knew immediately it was a bad decision.

As far as Melky, I'm sorry man, but you are wrong. The kid is 22. If he had spent all of 2006 in AAA, he probably would have led the IL in average, hits and RBI. The kid has loads of talent. Unfortunately he still has huge holes in his swing and little confidence.

[SoRight24]

Papelbon is nasty.

2 more outs....

[Trippin4136]

Johnny Damon's swing negates him from ever touching Papelbon.

[ProudestAnt]

This kid's fearless. He's going to go after everyone who gets up there...

[Trippin4136]

They were going to make Papelbon a starter....why??

I know the cautions about his shoulder...but god damn.

[ProudestAnt]

They were going to make Papelbon a starter....why??

I know the cautions about his shoulder...but god damn. He was origionally a starter, and was nasty at that too. I'm just glad he grew a pair and told the coaches that he WANTED to close. He was born to do it...

[SoRight24]

He was origionally a starter, and was nasty at that too. I'm just glad he grew a pair and told the coaches that he WANTED to close. He was born to do it...

Me too, finding a solid closer is almost impossible these days..

[ProudestAnt]

Here we go. This is what this rivalry is all about. BRING IT THE FUCK ON!!

[Trippin4136]

I know he was a starter in college. I just didn't understand why they were going to fool with a great thing.

[ProudestAnt]

OH jesus fuck, I saw the game flash before my eyes on that pitch...

[SmoothD41]

ballgame.

[SoRight24]

YEAH!!!

Sweep!

[ProudestAnt]

*fist pump*

[Trippin4136]

If I'm Kyle Farnsworth (shit even as a fan) I'm seriously getting pissed with Joe Torre right now.

$5.3 million a year to only pitch when trailing? Pretty stupid.

[crashintome202]

OH jesus fuck, I saw the game flash before my eyes on that pitch...
shit that was right down the middle, 95... he should have fucking crushed it. oh well, can't do it ALL the time.

good series

[ProudestAnt]

Side note: Fuck Barry Bonds...

Bull. Horrible series. Granted the Yankees had 2 rookies pitching, but the whole management of the bullpen was horrendous.

I'm waiting to see how much more time will pass before Ron Guidry's job is in question. Personally, I think he's weak as a pitching coach.

[ProudestAnt]

Stu Scott kills me. "Manny Ramirez, holla at a playa when you see him in the street....two batters later, oh no he didn't, Mike Lowell....2 pitches later, Jason Varitek...BOO-YA!!!"

[junior94]

Well hey that's pretty cool (maybe they actually made mention of this during the game, I wasn't watching closely enough) that yea even though I can't stand JD Drew (Phillies fans know :p ) the fact that this 4 straight homers has happened twice now in two seasons but so few before that, and Drew was a part of them both times. What are the friggin odds of that.

[gravedigger13]

So it sounds like Phillip Hughes will get the start on Thursday.

Cashman has a lot riding on this guy.

i think one of torre's biggest weaknesses is his bullpen managment...he has absolutely no idea how to handle it and if guidry had a fucking mind, he would chime in with some help

[lennon2324]

way too early to bring this kid up...this could really hurt him...although it could also help a lot...i just think the yankees are panicking way too early and giving in to the pressure being put on them to bring him up...i don't like it one bit

[jmudmbphan]

well..we put runs up against the sox top three pitchers, and lost no game by more than two runs...when we are fully healthy and have our starters back...its a whole new ball game.

[lennon2324]

very true...that's why i'm not too worried about the future or too upset with the sweep....wait till next weekend when we have wang back in there...i can't wait to see them get another shot at dice k....i'll be in the right field bleachers friday night...anyone else going????

[FunkyTeaParty]

I will be there Thursday to see Hughes.

[gravedigger13]

You guys see this: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2847416&campaign=rss&source=ESPNHeadlines

I want to know why Hunter hasn't been suspended? Rules are rules.

[kevinmavs]

Torii Hunter is a good guy i really hope nothing happens to him. He comes here to Dallas his hometown to workout in the summer at the same place i used to work out at in high school. It's a place that him and Vernon Wells and some other guys run. He's really a good guy. That rule is stupid.

Because the Royals sent back the Dom. and because it is an old rule.

Top 5 in the majors, right?

Yep. Right now 5 jacks would tie him for 4th. Obvioulsy it's early, but the guy is just heating up right now, and hitting about .400!
You know if a guy with as much power as him is hitting for average, the power is just gonna come naturally and often.

Well, agree to disagree.

Let's say that the season ended today. What would you have to say about Hafner as far as his total went? He was tied for the 4th most homers of anyone in the leauge. Correct?

Not like it matters that much, because our bet is for the whole season and guys will distance themselves from one another, but whatever.

Not to but in, but saying he finished 4th is implying 3 guys finished ahead of him. That wouldnt be true.

If the entire league hit 6 HRs this year each and your guy hit 5 he would be last, not second.

[thehoss]

how about this bullshit about torii hunter getting suspended for a possible 3 years? this better not happen, or selig will be getting some awful emails from me

[Trippin4136]

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Alex Rodriguez's torrid start has reaffirmed his intentions for after this season: He wants to stay in pinstripes.

Rodriguez, whose 14 homers are tied for the most ever in April, said Tuesday that he has no plans to leave the New York Yankees after the season, when the third baseman can opt of his contract.

"I want to stay in New York, no matter what," Rodriguez said in the Yankees' third-base dugout before Tuesday night's game at Tampa Bay.

"I love New York. It's the greatest place for me to play."

Rodriguez is entering the seventh season of his $252 million, 10-year contract, a deal he signed with the Texas Rangers. He can terminate the agreement after the season, forfeit the $81 million owed in the final three years and become a free agent.

"Abilitywise, we certainly want him here," Yankees manager Joe Torre said. "Sitting in the middle of our lineup and making the statement he is right now, we certainly don't want him to go anywhere. That's without question. I'd like to believe he's going to be here."

Rodriguez entered Tuesday night's game at Tampa Bay hitting .400 with a league-leading 34 RBIs in 18 games, and he's already matched the record for April homers set by Albert Pujols last year.

When asked if he could explain his start, Rodriguez said simply, "No."

"I know you guys are looking for some profound answers, but I don't have them," Rodriguez said. "I'm having as much fun as I can. I'm trying to keep it simple. Just try to prolong it as long as possible and enjoy it."

[lennon2324]

thats what i like to hear.......for now.....lol

[lennon2324]

The Yankees should start shopping A-Rod...

thats a good idea..let's shop the only reason we have 8 wins this year

[hearmorphish]

it might be a good move to shop him for pitching, eh?:D

[lennon2324]

we have pitching...it's just on the DL...speaking of which your boy pelfrey better light up colorado today cause i got a hundred on him

[Tiduwho]

Kerry Wood and the gang are officially sweating.


Peavy with 16 SOs through 7...

[hearmorphish]

yeah, sorry about that. i was there last friday to see pelfrey get smacked around, and i was afraid it would happen again yesterday. good luck w hughes.

[lennon2324]

yeah, sorry about that. i was there last friday to see pelfrey get smacked around, and i was afraid it would happen again yesterday. good luck w hughes.



well he officially ruined me...then i lost with the braves and padres as well...all in the ninth inning!!!! booby cox is a facking jackass for pulling hudson and not letting him complete is a gem...worst managerial move of the season (next to every bullpen decision torre makes)

[FunkyTeaParty]

Hudson loaded the bases in the 9th with no outs and 110 pitches.

If anything he shouldn't have let him start the 9th.

....or yanked him after the 1st two batters reached base.

[Tiduwho]

Hudson's ERA will be over 4 by season's end, guaranteed.

[FunkyTeaParty]

Friendly wager?

[gravedigger13]

If Sheffield gets back to normal, watch out.

[Tiduwho]

Friendly wager?


Okay, if his ERA is under 4, I'll change my title to "Tim Hudson most UNDERRATED ever".


And if it's over 4, you have to change your title to "Tim Hudson is a BUM".


Deal?

[FunkyTeaParty]

That works for me.

Now we just have to try to remember this happened.

[jmudmbphan]

bad bet..hudson will be WAY over 4.

[FunkyTeaParty]

I don't think his fast start is a fluke. He has ridiculous command and is pounding the bottom of the strike zone.

Whoever believes AROD will stay in NY only because HE said so, is a fool. What do you expect him to say when asked about it? I'm not saying that he will leave, I'm just saying it would be stupid to believe him right now while things are going well. Plus, OF COURSE he will say he wants to stay when asked about it.

i can't possibly think that anyone believes his statement. i actually have a strong feeling the yanks are gonna get burned by him.

I cant believe this is still coming up.

It was blood. Period.

[lennon2324]

if this is till such a big deal then why don't they just run a fucking DNA test on it??? i can't believe it's still being talked about

[kevinmavs]

because they don't know where the real one from the ALCS is....the one from the world series is in cooperstown.

Why would Gary Thorne say that though. The way he said it was so ho hum. Something is up seriously.

I mean i for one don't care but there is something fishy with this story.

[lennon2324]

thats true...i didn't know the one from the ALCS was missing...they should just drop it altogether and worry about more important things, like a steroid freak breaking the most cherished record in all of sports

[kevinmavs]

exactly

[Tiduwho]

Come on, no Yanks/Sawx talk in here? The Yanks have lost 7 in a row and have the 3rd worst record in baseball!


:multi :lol :multi

[kevinmavs]

Sosa hits 595. As much as i'm against the whole steroid thing I'm really pulling for him only because he plays for my team.

I do try to look at it this way, if Giambi never got punished and he admitted to using then why can't Sosa play. He's pounding the ball though and he's honestly about the same physical size as he was in Baltimore.

[UltimateFrisbee]

Come on, no Yanks/Sawx talk in here? The Yanks have lost 7 in a row and have the 3rd worst record in baseball!


:multi :lol :multi
Not a Yankees fan but for the sake of MY team I hope Pettitte wins 25 and A-Rod hits 100 HR.

[Tiduwho]

Okay guys, do I offer up Ryan Howard for Dice-K?

[Tiduwho]

Okay, it's done. I just couldn't take Howard anymore, and I have Prince Fielder anyways. I now have Schilling, Beckett, AND Dice-K.


Jeez.

[devilandthelord]

Picked up Jeff Suppan today in my fantasy league, on the strength of his complete game shutout, sub-3.00 ERA so far this year and WS MVP.
I think he's in for a career year at 32, finally coming into his own.
I couldn't believe he was still available.

Also, the BrewCrew is primed to be pretty good this year with Suppan, Capuano, Cordero, Turnbow, and a good offense.

[SatelliteEyes]

Poor Yankees. Finally get some good pitching from their top prospect and the dude fucks up his hamstring and will miss 4-6 weeks. The dude was tossing a no-no!! And of all the bullpens to hand it over to, the yankees bullpen...oh well.

From Rotoworld...

Phil Hughes is expected to miss 4-6 weeks after straining his hamstring Tuesday in his start against the Rangers.

Incredible. At least the Yankees are getting Mike Mussina back this week, and Hughes showed enough tonight to indicate that he could be of a lot of use after the break. In truth, this injury might have been the best thing for his long-term health, as the Yankees won't be tempted to overuse him to compensate for the shortcomings of the rest of the staff. This means Kei Igawa will likely stay in the rotation following Mussina's return

[kevinmavs]

i feel bad for th rangers...they're lineup isn't that bad (even though they were no hit by Chicago and almost NY), it's just they're pitching is so so bad...what's going on down there?!?!?!

[Tiduwho]

[gravedigger13]

i feel bad for th rangers...they're lineup isn't that bad (even though they were no hit by Chicago and almost NY), it's just they're pitching is so so bad...what's going on down there?!?!?!

well the problem is that Mark Tiexiera, Mike Young, and Hank Blalock are supposed to be the core of our offense and our franchise and these guys are all hitting below or around .215. Everybody got off to a cold start and there is no sign of it stopping. The pitching has not been bad actually....for us that is.

[ProudestAnt]

Don't the Brewers have the best record in baseball? As of last night and today, yes. Before the results of last night's games the Sox had the best winning percentage in the league...

[ProudestAnt]

Beckett going for win number six tonight. Can he get it done?

[Tiduwho]

Beckett going for win number six tonight. Can he get it done?

He better. Until I just dropped Wakefield, I had 4/5 of the Red Sox rotation!


And 4 Brewer hitters!

[UNC41]

I'm thinking about offering this trade in an auction keeper league ...

Me: Jimmy Rollins/Ben Sheets
Other Guy: Jose Reyes

I'd be giving up two great players, but my rotation would still be strong with Peavy, King Felix, Sabathia, Hill, Meche and Clemens.

In our league you keep four players, and if you keep them their salary goes up 10% from the previous year. When we auctioned people just threw out names and we bid. Reyes only went for 33 in a league where the cap is 260. because nobody threw him out until everyone had splurged on a couple of big players. For example, by that time I had bid 40 a piece on Vlad and Beltran and 26 on Peavy. Pujols went for about 50 and Johan was in the mid-50s. I got Rollins for 20 and Sheets for 9.

Right now I think I'll probably keep Felix (11), Sabathia (8), Alex Gordon (1) and Rollins/Reyes. So, what do y'all think?

[Tiduwho]

D Lee for NL MVP?

[ProudestAnt]

Tim Lincecum is pitching tonight for the Giants. You want to see a kid who is going to be amazing, watch tonight's game on ESPN. Best pitcher to enter the league since Johan...

[Lcsulla]

Clemens just signed with the Yankees! :)

[justinandimcool]

:freak Whoa.

[ProudestAnt]

Clemens just signed with the Yankees! :) You can have him. He's been nothing but an attention seeking child since he left NY the first time...

[Lcsulla]

You can have him. He's been nothing but an attention seeking child since he left NY the first time...

Maybe so but attention and all I will be happy with some more stability in our rotation. Using 10 starters in the first 20 or so games is a problem. I am happy with anyone who can give us 5+ every fifth day, keep us in ballgames, and stay off the DL. Regardless of what people think there isn't much downside to adding him at all.

[ProudestAnt]

I guess I'd be happy if my team finally had a viable starter 30 games into the season too...

[devilandthelord]

Clemens just signed with the Yankees! :)

Well the Yankees have officially hit the emergency button.

[Lcsulla]

I guess I'd be happy if my team finally had a viable starter 30 games into the season too...

Glad you can see what I mean. Yesterday was the first time a starter of ours went past the 6th - it has been painful to watch. Hopefully Roger can help in keeping our pen fresh. Losing Moose, Wang, Pavano, Karstens, and Hughes (not to mention that Igawa has been downright awful in every appearance except one) in the first month didn't bode well for our staff at all. To even contend we'd probably have to add an arm by the all star break either way - grabbing him now hopefully helps us get to the break without being too far out of the race.

[Tiduwho]

Clemroid back in the Bronx!

[Lcsulla]

Well the Yankees have officially hit the emergency button.

Not really. Outside of the Red Sox (who's rotation has been stellar) I doubt there's a team in the league who wouldn't have signed him if he expressed interest. Who wouldn't take him if they had a chance?

[jmudmbphan]

Well the Yankees have officially hit the emergency button.

emergency button? the first place red sox and astros both told him they'd give him pretty much whatever he wanted to...they both wanted him...it has nothing to do with emergency, it has to do with getting the 2nd best pitcher in mlb on your team.

[ProudestAnt]

ehh..i think your pretty much incorrect He's definitely wrong, but let's be real. Pitching in the AL East, do you honestly think he can keep his sub 3.00 ERA form? I'm not sure. I won't say he can't, but I'm not sure he can. Big difference between the AL East and the NL Central...

[JaJunk]

i'd say your probably right.

Bucholtz is going to be in the minors for this season. With Schilling probably leaving town after this year, he'll start next season as our 5 guy. There's room for Lester, they can always option Hansack or Snyder down to Pawtucket...

[devilandthelord]

To me though, the Clemens move is a stupid decision by the Yankees. 28 mil for half a season is not worth it to them. Not that money means anything to the Yanks or that they have any concept of it, but this will still not make them good enough to contend for the World Series.

[Lcsulla]

holy shit where did you hear 28 million from? doesnt really matter since its a 1 year deal.

Drew is MUCH better. he can actually hit lefties and has power

Well, not saying Drew won't end up with better numbers, but as of right now Nixon and Drew have the same amount of homers and Trot has more RBIs and is batting about 50 points higher.

I have Flash too, but he's on the DL. I loaded up on Starters and Hold guys...'

Oh, you get points for Holds?


I've got Street, Todd Jones, Dempster, and Isringhausen. They've been pretty good for me.

[devilandthelord]

I don't get shit for holds. I only have one guy that is a non-starter and non closer, and that is Fernando Cabrera, because he has been just mowing guys down this year and you do get points for K/9 innings in my league.

Guess who else I have? Josh Beckett. :)

[ProudestAnt]

Yea, we get points for holds. I think it's gay as shit, but I've won the past 3 seasons and can't exactly take everyone's money and just leave...

[ProudestAnt]

So yea, I need a closer. Just proposed a trade:

I get:
Houston Street
J.J. Hardy

He gets:
Hanley Ramirez
Dan Haren...

[Tiduwho]

JJ is GREAT. So is Fat Fielder. The Brewers are paying me a lot of dividends.


I'd probably take that trade though. I had Hanley for a few weeks last year and dropped him (this was like May). Talk about regretting that...

Haren's the man.

[ProudestAnt]

Haren's the man.Yea, I'm loaded at starter, so I can afford to get rid of Haren. Hanley's the big draw for the trade since the guy is last in our league in steals. Plus, I have Tulowitzki on the bench if Hardy starts to implode...

[ProudestAnt]

So now that Clemens has signed for 3/4 of a year for $28 million, is it feasable to predict that Johan will draw 5/$150 mil?

[crashintome202]

So now that Clemens has signed for 3/4 of a year for $28 million, is it feasable to predict that Johan will draw 5/$150 mil?
more than that. Johan could easily get 10 year and 20-25 million isnt out of the question. yankees will be ALL OVER johan if he hits FA

[devilandthelord]

I wouldn't be suprised if the Yanks throw 30 mil a year at Johan.

Oh, and make that 2 Homers for Josh Hamilton today.

[ProudestAnt]

more than that. Johan could easily get 10 year and 20-25 million isnt out of the question. yankees will be ALL OVER johan if he hits FA You'd be foolish to sign a pitcher to a 10 year deal...

[devilandthelord]

You'd be foolish to sign a pitcher to a 10 year deal...

I was thinking the same thing. Futures are hard to predict with anybody, but especially pitchers. You never know what can break down, ala Mark Prior. Not to say that Johan would do that, but you know what I mean.
Plus Santana is 28, not 24, so a ten year contract would seem even sillier at that point.
But if anyone could do it, it would be the Yanks, if he wanted 10 years just for his own security and to decide his future. If he started to break down later in his career, they could just buy somebody else to take his place.

[ProudestAnt]

All baseball fans turn to ESPN NOW. Tim Lincecum v. Cole Hamels. Two of the best young pitchers in the game...

Oh, and I figured the Yankees would get Clemens. As for the guy who suggested Johan gets a 10-year deal from the Yankees. No way. He's 29 now, and there's no way you sign him to pitch into his 40s at the price he'll command. Plus, signing any pitcher for 10 years at any point of his career would be a stupid move. He could easily get $25 mil a year for 5 years though.

If I was the guy, I wouldn't take it. Sheets is still inconsistent and an injury threat. Reyes is too "take it to the bank and then some". He's got 19 sb's already to Rollins' 8.
