Alex Gordon is pretty much the ideal player all around. Great D, good hitter, elite arm, smart baserunner, hard worker, good guy in the community, he really has only one flaw.
@robneyer: I am thrilled to report that @nwanaturals are UNIFORMLY stirrupped tonight in North Little Rock.
Stirrups are so dorky
Meh, I am a stirrup dork, but I do think Alex somehow pulls off his 'look'. Maybe I'm just all for him though.104.6 mph is just silly... like ridiculous.http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/07/29/arolids-chapman-broke-104-m-p-h-on-his-fastball-last-night/
You guys sound like old dorks complaining about the no-elastic, baggy pants look. Sure, most of us 25-35 probably prefer the high-socks look, but guess what. When we started pulling our pants high the old dorks from the long and tight era were boo-hooing us. Same with the mid-calf guys from the 80s before them.

Lester to A's for Cespedes
Oakland has acquired 60% of their starting rotation this month. I think Boston got the better end of this deal*.*Unless Oakland wins the World Series this year

Tigers absolutely have the better rotation, lot off those A's guys are also unproven in the stretch rub and the playoffs.As a Red Sox fan I was thrilled with all of our trades, and even more happy that the Rays didn't get a damn thing for Price. It's hilarious to me that they could have had Cespedes and ended up with nothing. I'm sick of hearing about how smart their cheap ass front office is.
