teixeira announcement to come today[views:10167][posts:51]________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 12:28pm - tylor ""] http://www.washingtontimes.com/weblogs/lov...Dec/23/teixiera-announcement-today/ at this point i'd be really surprised if teix doesnt land with the sox, i bet theyre able to pick up varitek at a shorter deal too now that theyve given another boras client the big bucks |
| ____________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 12:35pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] fingers crossed |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:22pm - arilliusbm ""] fingers not crossed. teixeira can go fuck himself. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:23pm - dreadkill ""] big tex would give the sox the two biggest portuguese baseball stars in their lineup. i don't want lowell to go though. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:25pm - arilliusbm ""] the last thing the sox need is another white guy with an ego trip |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:27pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] so we another dominican guy with an ego trip instead? |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:28pm - SkinSandwich ""] manny is going to the Yanks, lol sexxorsz!!!! |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:28pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] ugh. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:30pm - SkinSandwich ""] Manny prefers the company of men. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:32pm - SkinSandwich ""] here is your point, an icepick in your face! [img] OOOHHHHHH YEEAAAAHHHHHH! |
| _________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:33pm - RustyPS ""] OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW THE FUCK?!?!? |
| ________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:51pm - xmikex ""] Charley Walters of the St. Paul Pioneer Press wrote yesterday about Joe Mauer, whose contract runs through 2010. He says the Red Sox are "already salivating over Mauer." I'm sure many teams are. The Twins have yet to talk to Mauer about another extension. Since Mauer is just 26 in April and his next contract will cover only free agent years, the deal could be record-setting (for a catcher) if he stays healthy. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:53pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] hrmmmmmm. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:54pm - xmikex ""] SkinSandwich said:manny is going to the Yanks, lol sexxorsz!!!! Last I heard both Cashman, and Steinbrenner denied the reports of an offer to Manny. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:54pm - arilliusbm ""] fuck mauer. another white guy with an ego. |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:55pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] NO MORE WHITES IN BASEBALL |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 1:59pm - dreadkill ""] mauer probably wants to stay in minny and i think it would be nice to see. |

Scott Boras is living in another world. |

| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 2:02pm - arilliusbm ""] ah, i'm just fooling. I was never a huge fan of "tashira" but he is a great ball player. I don't want him on the sox, though. too much money. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 2:03pm - dreadkill ""] varitek is pretty much all that's out there for catchers, so boras gets to haggle. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 2:06pm - jacksonmang ""] kill wyteee |

I don't want him on the sox, though. too much money. Ah, I'd rather have him then trade for a slugger and have to give up any prospects. It'll just be a shame that if the Sox get Teixeira, that means Lowell is gone....that will suck.... |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 2:18pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] i'd be sad to see lowell go but i think he had him for his prime. its doubtful he'll put up the same kinda numbers in the future. also i think his hip is shot now. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 2:20pm - RustyPS ""] Maybe, maybe not, either way, it'll suck seeing him go. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 3:33pm - arilliusbm ""] YANKEES SIGNED HIM FOR 8 YEARS HAHAHAHAHAHAHA |
| ______________________________ [Dec 23,2008 3:41pm - guy ""] what the fuck!!!! if they sign manny next thats un fuckin believable |
| ___________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 3:45pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] thats fucking bullshit. DAMNIT. |

| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 3:56pm - arilliusbm ""] YANKEES ARE CLOSE TO A 3 YEAR 70 MIL CONTRACT WITH MANNY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAATWRNH TDZT6 4YM; |
| __________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:32pm - mortalis ""] when the fuck did teixeira become a 20+ mil player? he's really good, but not at that level. his career ops+ is 134, bay's is 131. |
| ______________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:33pm - tyler selling booze ""] can't believe it |
| __________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 4:45pm - MillenialKingdom ""] *Sigh* My hate for the Yankees surges once again. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 5:02pm - xmikex ""] mortalis said:when the fuck did teixeira become a 20+ mil player? he's really good, but not at that level. his career ops+ is 134, bay's is 131. He had a great post season, and his stock is high right now. That translates into the Yankees signing him for twice what he's worth, and then condemning him 2 years from now when he's hurt every other week. Carlos Beltran teaches a clinic on it. I'm really baffled at how the Yanks are fitting all these guys on the payroll. I really just don't get it. Oh well, big spending on the free agent market hasn't worked out for them yet this century, and it will further destroy their already non-existent farm system. MIKE LOWELL FTW! |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 5:09pm - dreadkill ""] i think manny will go back to the dodgers, but if the yanks managed to get him, and all their free-agent deals panned out, they'd be one of the scariest teams of all-time. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 5:12pm - SkinSandwich ""] Just announced that texiera (sp, blow me) is going to the yankees too. Suck it trebek! |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 5:12pm - arilliusbm ""] scariest teams of all-time that doesn't make playoffs again. |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 5:24pm - dreadkill ""] it'll be a 3 horse race for 2 playoff spots. sorry, blue jays. better luck next decade. sox, yanks, and rays: who will miss the 'offs? |
| ___________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 5:25pm - dreadkill ""] pitching could doom the yanks again, since burnett will probably get hurt. |
| ________________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 8:12pm - DomesticTerror ""] good. i was starting to hate him anyways. at least now it's valid. that and it still gives me hope for Zimmerman in 2010 (lowell at dh.) Now if we would just get Moose... |
| _________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 8:12pm - RustyPS ""] dreadkill said:pitching could doom the yanks again, since burnett will probably get hurt. With Sabathia, a healthy Wang, Joba (if they decide to leave him as starter, a dumb move IMO, but still possible), and either Hughes and/or Kennedy "putting it together" (I think it's highly unlikely that they completely missed on both), I think that'll make up for what Burnett fails to do. |
| _______________________________ [Dec 23,2008 9:00pm - Pires ""] Tex to the yanks. Wow. It's ok. The sox were so close last year and if everyone stays healthy they can be back again |
| ________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 10:30pm - tylor ""] on the bright side, this frees up alot of money for lowe, peavy or sheets, and/or to eat some of lugo's contract in a trade for another pitcher or catcher |
| ________________________________ [Dec 23,2008 10:31pm - tylor ""] and regarding manny, the mets are retarded if they dont sign him. he's a perfect fit, and after the moves they made for their bullpen, theyd definitely be the team to beat in the NL |

Let me just point out that you just named 3 chronically injured pitchers, 1 that the Red Sox notoriously rock the shit out of, and Phillip Hughes. I can only be so afraid of a rotation like that as a Red Sox fan. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 10:05am - RustyPS ""] Well aware....so it could go either way... |
| ________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 10:44am - tylor ""] burnett we all know about, hughes sucked last year because he was hurt, joba is on an innings limit, the yankees have done nothing to try to help their shaky bullpen, sabathia with his weight is an injury waiting to happen i've always thought the lineup is a monster, it's gonna come down to if their pitching can stay healthy and if their bullpen can put it together |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 10:54am - dreadkill ""] a healthy wang. lulz at that. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 11:25am - RustyPS ""] dreadkill said:a healthy wang. lulz at that. I was waiting for that...took over 14 hours....I'm shocked |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 24,2008 11:27am - dreadkill ""] ha, i'm surprised no one jumped on that earlier. |
