ITT CapitalistBastard throws Jason Bay under the bus
>> Anonymous
What were the Red Sox thinking? Bay is inferior in every way.

Bay's not a head-case prima donna. However, he's still not as good a hitter by any stretch of the imagination.

Put your tripcodes in, CB.

LaRoche is okay, but he's nowhere as good as Bay is.

Bay's a downgrade to Ramirez (Except on defense) and hasn't had playoff experience; his offense may improve there due to the field's dimensions, but we'll see.

Dodger Stadium is not a hitter's ballpark, so we could see Manny's #'s drop off quite a bit. His defense stays the same (ie sucks).

The Pirates got loads of prospects, especially Brandon Moss. Not a bad pickup I must say.

The point is, the Pirates had a really good foundation to build off of in Bay, Nady, and McLouth.

Plus, if even if they did trade, it should have been for SP's because i really cannot name anybody in the rotation beside Ian Snell.

Problem is, you have to make sacrifices when your team has struggled to even get a winning season for more than a decade. I know the Pirate's management is terrible (Just look at their trade with the Yankees). Though, I think this time they won.

Btw, Twinsfag.

Where is CB? Is he pussying out?

Rotoworld's take:

>Once ballparks are factored in, Bay at 29 years old and Ramirez at 36 years old come out looking awfully close—they essentially both look good for an OPS between .900-.950—and the gap in defensive value swings heavily in Bay's favor. In other words, the Red Sox acquired a similar hitter and superior defender who's significantly younger and under the team's control through next season. Moss and Hansen were the cost to swap, but Boston won't miss either in the big picture.

That's not sabremetrics, that's just one fantasy site claiming that somehow Bay is just as good of a player than Manny is.

I would have prefered a Ramirez to Bay trade straight-up, as a Soxfag I'm kind of sad to see Manny go, but "Manny Being Manny" never should have even existed in the first place with discipline.

Losing Mossy and Hansen makes me nerdrage. What the fuck were you thinking, Theo?

Bucs got raped. They lost Nady (who hit a HR tonight, despite the loss) and Bay.

Moss was a 4th OFer, they have Coco so Moss was going to be in AAA for awhile. Hanson could pitch yes, BUT in Boston he couldn't do shit and he needed a change of scenery.

Starting Pitching is fucking atrocious.

They traded decent bats for prospects.

I'm so fucking tired of this happening every fucking season.
