Where is Charlie Finley to give that man a bonus?

CSNNE reporting: #RedSox have reached agreement with Adrian Gonzalez on a 7-year, $154 million contract extension.

Holy mama.

That's a ton of money for a dude who's topped a .300 BA in a season once and OBP'd over .370 twice.

Yet it's only an average of 1.7 mill more than they will pay Crawford over 7 years.

Old news

That was a fucking awful strike 3 call to end it.

I looked it up after you posted it, but I forgot to post it.

But, since I'm an anal retentive asshole:



Not a fucking awful strike 3 call to end it.

The "K-Zone" showed it like 2 inches outside.

[Bobbob1313]

2 inches is fucking awful?

Seems like it was a good pitch and a good call to me.

[MiamiHomer]

I was just saying that it wasn't in the zone when they showed it on their graphic.

[Mainge]

2 inches off the plate is pretty awful.

That's clearly not 2 inches off the plate though. Assuming that's correct.

It was probs the camera angle that made it look so bad. At the time I was pissed. But being an umpire myself, in that situation...3-2 score...0-2 count on the catcher...1st and 2nd...2 outs...bottom of the 9th...I would not call that pitch a strike at the high school level. I felt like because it was Roy Halladay...he got that call.

Now bobbob made me incorrect. Touche.

[MiamiHomer]

Lance Berkman holy shit.

Yeah this isnt weird. MLBN is interviewing Alexei Ogando who I guess understands no English thru a fellow reliever who is translating it. Ogando has the dumbest look on his face right now.
