Stay classy New York :lol:

Congratulations Red Sox! Perfect ending to such a tragic year in the city. Boston Strong! :smokin

Definite bitterness on my end :lol: , but dude was as good as done in the league just a few years ago. Now he's having a better average himself than the rest of his team combined?

Damn impressive to go from last to champs in a years turnaround. Can't discredit the Sox for that feat.

Would like to see Choo end up with Houston for shock factor and the unlikely odds.

Ellsbury is 30 and ideally ends up in Seattle. Will be hard to fend off Nats or NYY.

Ellsbury could start the offense needed to supplement Felix, Hultzen, and Tajuan.
 
It would make no sense for the Astros to sign Choo. Totally against that move. Need pitching more than anything. they'd just be spending money on Choo for the sake of spending money.
 
I hope Seattle focuses on Ellsbury solely and not so much Garza. Give Hultzen and Tajuan the time to develop behind Felix. Patience.

I feel Cruz ends up with Philly.

McCann to Texas, NYY, or Boston. At this point, would you guys prefer his bat or Napoli's?

Don't know if I posted this earlier, but Tanaka is Darvish-lite. Yanks will be lucky to get him. He's worth way more than Abreu. Giants will also post for him.
 
i'm hoping some team pays ellsbury $20M+ per....he's not worth that money but someone will do it
 
How far you willing to go, $18M-per over five?

Gets on base, sets the table. Swipes bags with ease, tops in the league. More than adequate defense in center. Has showed enough pop for a lead off guy in the past.

Only downside is age 30. 7-8 year deal is pushing it.
 
honestly imo he's basically getting paid for a season he had like what, four years ago? he hasn't come close to replicating it. for me...he's a $15M-$17M player tops for 5 years.

he's not the most durable guy either...he is going to miss games. no doubt in my mind.

He was the best player in baseball in 2011, it's a shame the collapse of the rest of the team cost him an MVP.
 
:lol:

flew back to CA today...was sitting next to a colorado fan. he was a cool dude...was in boston for game 6. and then this couple across the way...christ. australian couple with homes in sydney, bali, LA, and denver. they flew to boston just for game 6 as well...i didn't ask but i'm sure they were in the $4K seats :lol:

It's just an overall shame that Verlander won the MVP :lol:

Whoever gives Ellsbury his $100mm is gonna regret it as early as next year I think.

Choo will get the QO from Cincy. I personally wouldn't give it to him.
