    Rusney Castillo Conundrum

      They could do a L/R platoon with Nava & Hanley until Hanley's shoulder is a little better.

    #DFG: Canceling the Noise

    If you enjoy sophomoric humor like I do, here's a fun summary of Brady's press conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tVHbdqGYOU&feature=youtu.be

    Kirk and Callahan: Done

    I almost hate to defend him 'cause I mostly find him a curmudgeon but I was listening this morning got a far different impression of what Callahan said.  Minihane indeed called Michelle Wie a butterface and Callahan did indeed say she's asian but if anything it seemed to me both D & C were...

    Brock Holt: Look! Something Shiny!

      Per soxprospects Herrera has 2 options left so that shouldn't be an issue.

    2014 Draft Game Day 1

    As a Cleveland homer I'm liking this draft a lot.  I'm not sure JFF's skills will work in the NFL but I'm sure at the very least he'll be entertaining.  I might actually buy into the Browns for the first time for a decade or more.

    Extending Lester

    A caller on Felger & Mazz made a good point today - we may know only half the story here - what did the Lester camp present?  That caller also wondered who presented terms first.  It got me thinking.   As a bid price I certainly see 4/70-80 as unreasonably cheap for Lester.  But what if the ask...

    MLB Adopt-a-Team

    I'd be happy to take the Cleveland Indians.  Live in Boston now but they're my hometown team & I'm already reading their media frequently.  I might only manage a post or two a week though, so would welcome co-contributors.

    2013-14 Michigan Basketball: Big Ten Champions!

    This is certainly the wrong topic but I can't find a more appropriate one and it might be interesting to SOSH readers.   Bullpen Cop (Steve Horgan) is currently standing guard where the fire occurred two days ago at 298 Beacon.  He was there both at  6 & 9 pm when I was out walking my doggeh

    A Football Life: Cleveland 95

      As a native I can absolutely confirm that.  I remember flying home from Boston in '95 for Christmas.  Before I even got out of Hopkins airport I signed 2 or 3 petitions to keep the Browns in town & saw innumerable signs/ads protesting the move.   When the move wasn't the top issue on local...

    Projecting Sizemore

      It's been a mix.  In 2009 he was dealing with both a groin & elbow issue, tried to play through it & had a bad year while playing a lot of games.  2010 he blew up & was DL'd most the year.  2011 was a mix - I think he & the Indians tried to play through some injuries but IIRC he had at least 3...

    Remember when tickets were sold without gimmicks?

      I agree.  I recently experienced this - after the storm that hit Boston @ a week before Christmas I tried to buy some rock salt.  Out of stock everywhere I could get to.  I would have been happy to pay a hefty premium to get just 1 bag.  I would have considered that a penalty for not having a...

    Revis Island to be annexed to Foxboro?

      Can't speak for Dansby but Whitner grew up on the east side of Cleveland and played college ball at OSU.  He seems to be excited to play there.     Link

    Jenny Dell out as Red Sox sideline reporter; leaves NESN sometime in the future

      What's not to like?  While interviewing X she name dropped the Sox LF "Allen Gomes".  It's early in spring training still but I think she has a high ceiling as an inadvertent comic reliever.

    The QO and the current CBA

      That seems to make sense but as relatively complex as your solution is there are probably unintended consequences I haven't thought of as yet.  It would certainly lessen the negative impact to those good-but-not-great players but it wouldn't eliminate it.  I'm not sure what problems it might...

    Dempster Done?

      Napoli's also taking a risk on his health this year with a chance to come out way ahead..  He was offered 3/39 from Texas.  He settled on 2/32 from Boston.   He's giving up more guaranteed money but if he's healthy after 2015 he just needs to make $8M in 2016 to do better.  And if he's healthy...

    Goodell Made Over $35 Million Last Year

      I looked into this a little a few months ago because I'm a beancounter by trade and while I've never dealt with organizations this large I was curious.   Each of the 32 teams are separate corporations from the "NFL".  With the exception of the Packers each team is a for-profit privately-held...
