Carl Pavanoverrated Signs With Yanks

[sarasoxfan]

I'm sure this is old news, but I just read this that pavano --goes with yanks for 4 years 42 mill....

way over paid....they can have him...

[CrespoBlows]

He's going to get skull fucked in the AL, he never has had a year like this ever, even in that football stadium.

hahahahahahhahahahahaha, i love that new avatar crespo. as for pavano, i think he'll be on tract to be a decent pitcher. i don't think he'll ever be sub 3 era. but i think he'll be a 3-3.5 era pitcher for most of the rest of his career.

i think he got what he deserved if he can stay below the 3.5 era range.

Heard the same for wells. :o

If we had signed Pavano, all of you would be saying he's better than Pedro and that we don't need him anymore. Pavano is a good pitcher and the Yankees made a good signing.

[empireII]

Exactly.

[element1151]

They say Pavanoverrated on BDD, and before they were saying that we should get him.

Never liked Pavano, never will.

[CrespoBlows]

Pavano will be good depending how the fans embrace him, if they boo him expect bad results EX: Vazquez and Weaver, if they support him I expect him to do well.

I didn't and still don't get all the hype over a guy who had one good year. I always thought Radke was a better fit in Boston. So now Theo tries to hook Hudson.

[CrespoBlows]

I've got total faith in Theo, he's lead us to a world series. If he thinks Renteria is a good fit, then by all means, he'll probably be a good fit. Sure people make mistakes, but Theo is Theo, I always think he'll get us there.

thats what signing with the skanks will do to your rep here in boston. he'll be :banned: from boston.

[ahhchon]

like i said, as long as he posts a sub 3.5 era during his contract years he'll be a good sign.

I think we've all gotten worked up over this here. It's Carl Pavano we're talking about, lets not forget that. Here he goes and signs a superstar contract, just because he's the hot item over the off season for some reason I can't begin to understand. Everyone seems to be caught up in it too. To be honest, the only thing I knew about this guy three months ago was that we traded him for Pedro. And now, semi-ironically, it seems like we've done that again.

[Gertie]

It's a good signing for the Yankees. He's young, and pretty good. At worst he'll be a solid #3 or 4 for them (although he'd be a #2 probably on most teams). I would have preferred that the Sox get him over Boomer, but what can you do?

[sarasoxfan]

I read in the new york post (citing the source)--that there may be a snag in the wright siging, but I think they vastly over paiod pavano and he will likely by a #3 guy.

I like wells and he'll be fun as shit to watch against the yankees, that's for sure.
