2009 Pawsox

[ORS]

I'd love to see him miss a few more bats. Results have been nice, but he's had Joe Saunders levels of fortune with BABIP to this point.

Buchholz pitched again today at AAA Pawtucket.

 

0 ER 8ip 4h 0bb 11k

 

Season line: 2-0, 6 gs, 35ip, 16h, 10 bb, 37k, 1.03 era, 0.74 WHIP

[Cocos Disciples]

*Orgasm*

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

Hunter Jones back to Pawtucket

Justin Masterson back to the bullpen

Clay Buchholz to the MLB rotation

[BoSox21]

is that official?

[msubulldogs21]

is that official?

 

I think that was just what he is hoping we do.

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

is that official?

 

If I was in charge then it would be....but I'm not and it's probably a good thing

[BoSox21]

too bad, I got excited at that idea

[Rdsxmbnt]

Bowden: 8.0 IP, 3 hits, 0 ER, 4 BB, 7 K. ERA down to 0.86. A bit high on the walks but a very nice performance once again.

[jacksonianmarch]

The sox will have to make a decision soon. Buchholz, Masterson and Bowden are all ready for the big time. After this yr, 2 rotation slots open and one big fish is out there in Lackey. The question is, do they ship one of them to Texas for Saltalamacchia or Teagarden now before their stock drops, or do they keep all 3 and see if they can settle into the rotation. As we saw with the yankees, giving two spots in one offseason to relatively unproven young starters could be devastating. It will be an interesting dilemma for the sox.

[Rdsxmbnt]

I'd rather just hold onto all three. Salty is off to another meh start and I'm really not convinced he's is all that he's cracked up to be. Frankly his plate discipline is horrendous (6 BB - 32 K) and I'd rather have him show us something before we trade a guy in Bowden who is absolutely on fire right now.

[jacksonianmarch]

Once he starts showing you something, Bowden wont be enough for him. Thats the issue. Nobody knows if Bowden will translate that dominance into dominance at the MLB level. Just like nobody is certain that Salty will start connecting for power and further a history of patience into true production on the field. This is what you get when you deal a prospect for a prospect.

[BoSox21]

Bowden's line yesterday:

 

8 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 4 BB, 7 K

 

his season ERA was lowered to 0.86

[Dojji]

Bout time to get him to Boston somehow.

[BoSox21]

but how? six-man rotation? DL Wakefield to keep him fresh for later in the year?

 

I'd be curious to know what Bowden and Buchholz's real feelings are about still being in the minors

[castigs850]

they're f***in pissssed

[BoSox21]

Javier Lopez's line yesterday in Pawtucket:

 

0.2 IP, 1 H, 4 ER, 5 BB, 1 K

 

what a cockball

Lopez has BIG problems. If he can't perform in AAA what kind of future does he have? Out of baseball? Maybe some team picks him up? Too bad. He was O.K. for about a year.

Considering no one claimed him off waivers, I'd say the best he'll get next year is a minor-league contract

wow he's really lost it.

[jacksonianmarch]

Bowden got lit up tonight vs SWB. 2IP 4ER

[Cocos Disciples]

Which nearly doubles his ERA to...1.64.

Too bad the yankees couldn't touch him in two innings.

[BoSox21]

I'll admit i simply don't like Kevin Bacon.

 

I think he's trailer trash, but maybe that's just me.
