Easily it's red sox fans. Hahaha not even close.
Posted Saturday February 16, 2008, About: What's holding up Reds-A's trade
Blanton's a good pitcher in a bad market for pitching. If anyone can swindle for a good prospect, it's Beane.

Watch, he lobbies the Reds for Bruce, but he'll probably end up trading Blanton to, like, the Marlins or something

LOL at the yankee fans who wanted to trade A-rod for Santana and figgins
Posted Monday August 06, 2007, About: Trouble brewing in A's clubhouse
I think two things are wrong here. One, Beane's made some questionable deals recently and he barely got off clean last season (Loaiza's long term deal, trading Ethier, signing Chavez and letting Tejada go). Secondly, and more importantly, I feel Beane's control over his managers is the one downfall to his style.

Beane picks good players, but he needs to pick more commanding managers, guys who are veterans in the league and know how to deal with injuries and malcontents. They say Geren is laid back, but that's not what a team like the A's need right now.

He should have picked Ron Washington to be manager. They don't share the same baseball philosophies, but one thing is clear: This organization is a few steps from being rebuilt from the bottom up in preparation for the new stadium in 2011. The last thing they need is an aloof manager.

This was the best non-move of Cashman's tenure

The Yankees are 3 back in the wild card with 2 full months to play. They are certainly not out of it. They're not even out of the running for having the best record in baseball. With two months to play, there is so much more that can happen.

1-5 against single A pitching. Yeah, he's definitely ready for some big league pitching.

Posted Tuesday July 17, 2007, About: Athletics not done dealing
ah man i've been telling people that Beane would trade Johnson to the Yankees for like the past two years. Yankee fans are gonna love him. Good trade for both teams.

Posted Tuesday July 17, 2007, About: Red Sox to make run at A-Rod
On second thought, lemme revise my comment. The red sox are getting into the fray as a strategy to raise the price on the bidder. Obviously, if he ends up going to an AL club, more money to A-rod means less money they'll have to get other talent, essentially destroying their playoff chances for the next four or five years. I bet the Red Sox have no real intention of signing A-rod. Smart move.
Posted Tuesday July 17, 2007, About: Torre mum on racial accusations
Sheffield and Lofton open their mouthes and say something stupid. But this time, it MUST be important. </sarcasm>
Posted Monday July 16, 2007, About: Vlad would welcome A-Rod to Angels
Hopefully A-rod learned from his last contract that there is a trade off when you take a huge paycheck. I bet he opts out and signs elsewhere for about the same that he gets now, if not less. Or maybe he'll do what the D-backs used to do and accept deferred payment for some of his contract so as to not destroy his team's chances of competing.
Posted Saturday July 14, 2007, About: Red Sox to make run at A-Rod
I would root for A-rod if he went to any other team. But I'd secretly want him to win it all on the sox just to shove it down all his ignorant Yankee hater throats that it's not A-rod who's cursing the Yankees, it's bad management...and that they were absolutely foolish for chasing him out of NY.
Posted Friday July 13, 2007, About: Yankees give A-Rod ultimatum
A-rod needs to go. He's treated like garbage in NY and he deserves much better. Let him go to Seattle, LA, or San Fran, where the fans cheer him and don't give a flying **** about tabloids.

It's not about money. He'll probably get more money and that's how it'll probably be spun by the media. But it's about appreciation and feeling of place. He's leaving to be treated like the star he is, not like a second-rate piece of garbage who still has to make a name for himself. In five or ten years i hope Yankee fans look back on their behavior during the A-rod era and slap themselves.
Posted Wednesday July 11, 2007, About: Orioles want to shop Tejada
i watched Tejada while he was on oakland. he plays with his heart on his sleeve and would be an excellent addition to any playoff-bound team. he is still a great player and one of the best SS in the AL. If he'd be willing to shift to 3b, the Dodgers would take him in a second.
