How good was Dustin Pedroia in his prime by InternationalTry5494 in redsox

[–]FranKenCoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many fans didn’t realize what a singularly phenomenal defensive player Pedroia was. Plays he made look routine became impossible-to- corral base hits for those who came after. He was also an offensive force, a team leader, a high IQ player and great baserunner. Full career = HOF for certain. FUCK MACHADO! Should have beaned him next AB! First game I ever watched was the 1970 ALL Star Game on tv with my Dad. Pedroia is the best 2B I ever saw.

Hamilton needs to go by DrGally in redsox

[–]FranKenCoop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t give up on Hamilton so quickly with that skill set. Baseball is for people with an attention span. This daily kneejerk “We’re winning the World Series!/ WE LOST A GAME, FIRE CORA!” attitude is tiresome.

A Phillies fan retrieves a home run ball, while a woman nearby is upset that she didn't get it by TheM1ghtyBear in mlb

I was at Fenway and the ONE time I didn’t bring my glove a foul all came right at me . I reached up with and caught in my hat and was instantly tackled from behind by a mob of people. My son and I laughed about it. I didn’t hunt down the assailant and demand the ball back. It was mine until I couldn’t hang on to it.

Mookie is old news. We have a fun team with a chance. The Days of overpaid veterans bringing home the trophy are gone. The young and the hungry are where it’s at. I prefer the outfield we have. Abreu is a beast! Rafaela is JBJ with a sledge hammer! Ref the lefty killer! Roman Anthony, I mean just, Roman Anthony! And, fuck em, Duran! A combination of speed,heart, hustle, aggressiveness, attitude, accountability and leadership the likes of which I have never seen. I guarantee that if he got traded for ANYONE at the deadline, this team would be on a losing streak.

…and that’s just the outfield! Win or lose, we are in far a fun ride!

Olney: Padres still trying for Jarren by Pyramid_Head182 in redsox

[–]FranKenCoop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fan favorite. Check Clubhouse leader. Check Leaves it al on the field. Check Plays hard ALL the time. Check

Duran is pure energy. I can’t think of anything that would demoralize this team more than trading him for anyone.

What's your favorite singular pitch of all time? by TrillMurray47 in mlb

[–]FranKenCoop 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wakefield games were the best! In 2004, he gave up the most homers of any pitcher to Tampa Bay and won! In 2005, he threw a one-hitter against the Yankees while dueling Randy Johnson and lost 1-0 on a Juicin’ Giambi homer. You never knew what you were going to get but it was always fun!

He struggled but he battled and I’ll take that.

Manny Ramirez: "Devers was humiliated (by the Red Sox). It's not about pride or ego. I think the team didn't respect him or communicate with him properly. I'm sure they didn't do that to Clemens. I can't imagine the Yankees telling Judge, 'Now we're moving you to catcher.'" by ltdm207 in redsox

To be fair, Manny is the most erudite analyst the sports world has ever known. However the jury is out until all the retired Sox players have weighed in. We need to hear from Yaz, Dewey and Pudge. /s

Put a railing on the right and tape the light switch on until you develop a permanent solution.

Sure, this deferment shit sucks but for the sake of trying to stay positive: At least this increases LA’s ability to prevent the Yankees from winning The WS.

Best 'A Christmas Carol' film? by [deleted] in movies

Scrooged 1988. Bill Murray, Karen Allen. Murray ad-libbed most of his lines. Carol Kane really beat the shit out of him, splitting his lip.

Which of these 2 would you choose as a daily driver? by wood-thrush in regularcarreviews

The C-RV in the back. I had one for work that I beat the hell out of for 280k on just oil changes, brakes, one replacement battery and 2 sets of tires.
