Lead off triple for the Twins and ended up with s***. You guys might want to wait for a run to score before you complain.

 

Can u really blame us for expecting the worst when there's a lead off triple, given how bad the bullpen has been?

Yes. An injury prone player is a player who has recurring injuries on a specific area. Beckett is injury prone because of his back. Youk is injury prone because of his groin.

 

Is Ellsbury injury prone?

 

Ummm....actually yeah, its starting to look that way.

 

I think you can start to question his durability.

Anyone else see bards quote about being in the bullpen tonight?? Threw all

8 guys in the pen under the bus....

 

 

I didn't see it but I would imagine it might do more good than bad. It's not like Matt Albers has been praised every day of his career.

Wow. I think that's ridiculous to call him injury prone. If he hurt his ribs again in his injury this year, fine, I can see that. But two freak injuries?? Come on. That's absurd.

Said he had no problem going to the pen to help out, but he can't make 8 guys pitch better..... Not word for word... But the last part is

Why?

 

Almost EVERY SINGLE long term contract looks bad at the end. So we are never going to sign a guy long term again because of how they look at the end?

 

Lackey and Crawford will make ownership gun shy for life if you use that logic.

 

Didn't your mother ever tell you... two wrongs don't make a right? They've completely and utterly mismanaged contracts in the past to the point it is destroying the franchise. And your solution is to give out the absolute worst contract in the history of baseball?

How can you predict his career though?? He's the fastest closer to 200 svs' date=' some guy named Rivera isn't[/quote']

 

If you really want to compare him to Rivera, then you are more delusional than I thought.

How is it absurd?

 

Hes not durable.....you can call them freak injuries or injury prone or whatever you want.....but if hes not on the field, what value is he to us?

Agreed. I think he's awesome but if you can't question his durability you can at least question his commitment to the organization and maybe throw a few stones at Boras.

NOOOOO!!!!!

 

Why the hell are we going with Aceves?!?!?

 

Maybe they used your chart about Aceves, remember? :harhar:

By that logic, do you think Ryan Westmoreland is injury prone?

Pretty funny. Too bad it has so much truth to it.

Really?

 

The worst ever?

 

Yeah, I guess not paying for Papelbon made us a better team this year than last, oh wait...we have no bullpen.
