    Who, aside from Casas, would be a good candidate for an extension? Crawford? Pivetta? Houck? Duran?

    The 1995 Red Sox Appreciation Thread

    I found this poster going through a box of stuff from when I was a kid. This was the first year I followed the Sox hardcore, and when I really started to understand the game a lot more. The news that we signed Jose Canseco is what hooked me. I also think the team set a record for most players...

    Should Pete Rose be reinstated?

    There seems to be a lot of divide on this topic, and there's a few ways this whole thing could play out. What say you? Should he be reinstated? Should he be in the Hall of Fame?

    iPad Messages App

    I'm not really entirely savvy when it comes to this type of stuff, but I was wondering if anyone was especially familiar with this app.   Personally, I absolutely loathe cell phones, and chose to stop carrying one several years ago. If nothing else, it stops me from getting called into work...

    Orioles extend JJ Hardy

    http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/11670152/baltimore-orioles-extend-jj-hardy   Looking like a three year extension for $40M.   One less option for the Yankees. I'd imagine they go heavy after Hanley Ramirez now.

    John Lackey in 2015 and beyond

    Is my computer dead?

    In short, today I heard a "pop" inside my computer and it immediately shut down. I smelled something burning. I went out and bought a new PSU, installed it, but now I'm having issues getting the thing running. Basically, I turn on the system, and the fans all start spinning - and after a...

    WAR and Team Success

    With all I've been hearing about Mike Trout's contract situation lately, along with the cost of a win, I wanted to know exactly how good of a barometer WAR is when translating to team success. Would replacing a replacement level player with Mike Trout, a 10 WAR player, turn a middling 80 win...
