Like the Fan Scouting Report, but on fangraphs. Uses sweet drop down menu instead of making you do all the work. Do it.

I have heard about this so called fangraphs
thanks for finally posting the site. Now we all can be as smart as larry.
Oh, and hoodie, I found you a job:

"Jenks, who was never afraid to say "no" to a hamburger..."
they took my idea
www.fan-exchange.com. I even have an email from Appelman saying “what a great idea”
Fangraphs - they do exists
What the hell are they? Before I waste my time clicking this link…

Mauer extension - OT
I don’t give the Twins a snowball’s chance in hell of signing him to an extension. Yankees anyone? Posada is getting up there… Plus the Yankees can sign anyone they want. My doom and gloom fanpost will be popping up on the RR soon.

The peeps I know in Minny
swear that the Mauer extension is such a sure thing, that they shouldn’t even report on it. Suckers.
I'd give it a coin fliip's chance.
He is a local boy, and perhaps NY/BOS is not his idea of a great fanbase. He is adored in MN. Who represents him?
"don tink about new jork. jus come in ready to wing de gay."
Ron Shapiro
same guy who did the Kirby Pucket “richest deal in baseball” deal.
If it were a Boras I'd say he's gone.
Guy that has close ties to Teh Twinn – I’ll stick with a coin flip. They do have the new stadium to consider.
"don tink about new jork. jus come in ready to wing de gay."
I'd say Mauer is a lock to extend with the twinkies.

'swhat I'm thinking. No coin flip, nothin'. Seems like they'd want to give him WHATEVER he wanted and a pony to keep him there.
Not picky, but very sticky....

Well they can't afford whatever he wants, the thinking is Mauer loves playing in his hometown and will give them a discount.

actually, I think wu

i agree that it's certainly possible that jones will get significant ABs and be productive.
i disagree that rios’ contract is ludicrous and that he is in the process of running himself out of baseball.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
Jones is a great signing for the money
Rios doesn’t have to do that much to meet his contract value, provided his defense stays good and his offense returns to mediocrity, albeit if they don’t play him in CF we’d have problems.
The world needs the Jedi now more than ever
OT but whatever, fangraphs, it exists, etc

I posted this yesterday.....
but I don’t understand why neither Cheat/Larry have posted a Primer for the off-season…….wish list….etc. etc……I guess Larry’s role is to just rip into people rather than offer an intelligent discussion of what the Sox should do to get ready for 2010…..
stanchar = Lisa from Buffalo Grove, I'd guess.
Didn’t like the picture.
"don tink about new jork. jus come in ready to wing de gay."
Wow - I did not know those were actual questions from actual people.
They were so pedestrian that it looked like they were made up. That’s what I get for not bothering to look in Merkin’s mailbag.
You didn't ask me, for good reason I'm sure, but if you would like me to rosterbate to re-ignite the discussion, I will happily throw something together because I am here to serve the community as a fearless and underperforming editor.
However, mine would look similar to U-dog’s, only with a lot of emphasis on RBI-producers.
Also – maybe you have your own wish list and want to make a fanpost for it? Maybe since there ain’t much going on these days, it would be front-paged and lead the discussion?
(I’m not being sarcastic – be the change that you want to see in the site. Ok, that last line was intentionally corny…but for real….do it.)
Not picky, but very sticky....

maybe they thought that when you said you wanted to see what they thought kenny should do
they thought you meant you wanted the opposite of that.

demanding things will get you nowhere in life
same with fat, drunk and stupid.

"Jenks, who was never afraid to say "no" to a hamburger..."
by BobbySouthSide on Dec 1, 2009 2:31 PM CST up reply actions
man, I am opposite of you
I think there are too many hypothetical debates of what the team needs and what they are going to do in the off season. Have you been following soxmachine and his non-existing blog/site with reader off season plans? And what about all the jokes here about Kone Figgins, Gonzalez……. Plus the team has no $$$ to spend, so there is really not much to write about.
Lupe, release the balloons!
Hence the music thread,
the billyok arrest, and the mailbag. Plus, larry is settling all family business soon, so who knows who will still be posting?
"don tink about new jork. jus come in ready to wing de gay."
right, you request a sit down.

Times have changed. It’s not like the Old Days, when we can do anything we want. A refusal is not the act of a friend. If larry had all the answers, and the stats and projections from fangraphs, then he must share them, or let us others use them. He must let us draw the water from the well. Certainly he can present a bill for such services; after all… we are not Communists/Marxists/Socialists/OPOS from Florida.

The Sox also announced the early lineup for SoxFest 2010, with players like Freddy Garcia, Jake Peavy, Jayson Nix, A.J. Pierzynski, Alexei Ramirez and Matt Thornton locked in to attend.
Coincidentally, Bobby Jenks’ name was not listed, despite the fact that the closer actually is the one player that lives in Chicago in the offseason.
Jenks and the Sox have not seen eye-to-eye with his conditioning, with both sides expressing that in the Sun-Times two weeks ago.

What does the last sentence have to do with any of the rest of the article/blog? “Oh yeah, and Bobby is fat too….don’t forget that”. Leave the fat comments up to me.

I searched for your primer and this is what I found in the archives...this is before Editor status
and before you got soft. Ahhh….classic larry:
lol, boy, this is amusing
guys who suck at hitting and are obviously overmatched should go up there looking for a pitch and swing at that pitch if they get it. work the count? again, this ain’t little league. this is juan uribe facing joba chamberlain. ever heard of him? strikes out a lot of guys, doesn’t walk a lot of guys? work the count. you hear that one from your dad in third grade? please. you don’t get to work the count against guys like chamberlain when you’re juan uribe. guess where uribe would have been if he didn’t swing at that first pitch? behind in the count. against joba chamberlain. exactly where a piss poor hitter wants to be against him.
you must have a great fastball
and, no, you don’t throw a fastball to juan uribe. christ. where do you come up with this stuff? do you watch baseball on a regular basis? do you think about it with something more than a passing thought that doesn’t include what you learned in little league? you throw a slider and hope it’s good enough that he does with it exactly what uribe did with it.
in their respective baseball purgatories, both frank thomas and jerry owens loudly whine.

aguilas cibaenas v. estrellas de oriente is on espn360 at 6pm. aguilas features cole armstrong, luis terrero, john halama, jose lima, julian tavarez and al albuquerque while estrellas contains santo luis, wander perez, pablo ozuna, and fernando tatis.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
yep.
and if y’all haven’t seen the women dancing on top of the dugout you’re really missing something.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
if you're not able to see it
they seem to be simulating sex acts.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
tony pena (the original) is the manager of aguilas. they just interviewed him.
unfortunately, i don’t speak spanish.
oh man, he was safe! called out. fucking incompetent dominican league umpires.
at least the between inning break is closer. come on dancers!

what a ham and jam
catcher thought it was a pitch out, pitcher threw a strike, hitter hit it on a looping liner to left, left fielder butchered it then pretended that the lights got in his eyes. brutal.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
pablo ozuna up. tying run. 2 outs.
threw his bat at a 1-2 pitch. foul ball.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
called strike three. absolute horseshit.
imagine the strike three call that livan hernandez got in the 1997 world series only on the inside corner. brutal.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
he should have bunted
I was in the Dominican last week, and a positive everynight was at least two local baseball games on TV. The picture and camera work blew, and I had no idea what the commentators were saying, but fun to watch live baseball again.
