MLB Off-Season moves and discussion

NewYawka

welcome to the big city of new york my friend... the place where too many ideas are brought about.

and that's the only conclusion i can make. how else woulda no name guy like ortiz go from 8 home runs a year to 40+? juice my man juice. not only that but he even got CUT from MINNESOTA! maybe he realized he better find a way so his house doesn't show up in the foreclosure listings along with an auctioned escalade...

I haven't been in the sports section for a while, but can someone please explain who this NewYawka guy is, and how old he is?

Just curious.

NewYawka

my age is my business and i'm just your average yankees, giants, rangers and knicks fan living on manhattan's ues. and best of all i actually live in the state/metro my favorite teams are from. *cough*

*hands NewYawka a cough drop*

Anyone that thinks David Ortiz is on steriods clearly is uninformed about the effects of steriods.

They dont make people chubby. Last time I checked Ortiz wasnt exactly in shape, let alone ripped.

Sounds to me like a New Yorker that is grumpy his team is in the dumper and is looking to find problems with other teams.

NewYawka, I would also like to point out for Blade that he is not a Red Sox fan, but a Braves fan. If you want to try to pick on a Sox fan, look no futher than the man typing this post.

Quote:

Miguel Cabrera, 3B FLA News: The Tigers reached a preliminary agreement to acquire Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis from the Marlins for a package of six players. Florida would get left-hander Andrew Miller, outfielder Cameron Maybin and four other prospects, a baseball official with knowledge of the talks said on condition of anonymity because the deal had not yet been finalized. The players involved must pass physicals for the deal to be completed

NewYawka, say all you want but I actually live 20 minutes away from Fenway, work 10 minutes away and have lived here my whole life. (all 32 years of it)

So call me bandwagon all you want, its doesn't mean a damn thing. I know who I support.

NewYawka

good for you. doesn't mean you speak for all of boston does it now?

You seemed to be speaking directly to me. Forgive me for not knowing you were broadcasting to all Red Sox fans.

Oh also, you wanna talk bandwagon? The New York Yankees are the epitomy of it.

Where is my rational Yankees fan Dr. Giganto when we need him? He would go all sabremetric on your ass.
