7/22 vs. Blue Jays

[jacksonianmarch]

The thing is, Lester will eventually be dealt, he'll be labelled a malcontent and then go on to throw up Cy Young numbers in his new setting. But just like with Youk, they might have to deal him. He's got nothing, and he looks afraid up there.

[NC Sox Fan]

I'd love to know what V was saying to Lester. Could Lester even hear him through his frustration?

[wyo-sox]

Get that scowl off your face Lester.

[SemperFi Sox]

Lester you f***ing suck

[boxajoe]

The sox starting pitching is back to pre world series form. The pitching staff that cannot be counted on. The staff that was never going to win a world series. This is not a new strategy Ben Cherrington. Starting pitching is required, yes required to win. Get Boston some pitching Cherrington or get out of town ! this has become an embarrassment and if veterans like Lester and Beckett can't get the job done, get rid of them plain and simple and bring up or trade for someone that can. This just gets worse and worse and valentine and the pitching coach should be able gauge the readiness of these starters better than this. Beckett had great stuff according to valentine, so great that he got shelled. This red sox fan Is disgusted more than He has been in nine long yrs and I would like to know what is being done about it.

[jacksonianmarch]

Lester's delivery used to be a little tighter, now that I look at it. He's showing the ball way earlier than he used to.

So you're saying the Sox will get nothing for him?

[MANNYHOF24]

Actually' date=' it is. But I'm not going to try to sell it to you. If you don't want to believe that his .335 BABIP translates to him being unlucky, then I am not going to sit here and try to convince you.[/quote']

 

The eye test is just as important as any stat. Lester to me has failed the eye test all season. He has no command if the strike zone, ad he has been getting ripped

[wyo-sox]

I will be disappointed if I do not see a fight in our dugout today. This has to be pissing off someone...... right?

[Station 13]

Our LF are total jokes.

[jacksonianmarch]

So you're saying the Sox will get nothing for him?

 

No, they should get something, but he obviously would be dealt 50 cents on the dollar.

[ellsburyforMVP]

This isn't a real life version of MLB2k12....... You can't/don't just give up on 2 starting pitchers after a half a season of subpar pitching

[Station 13]

No' date=' they should get something, but he obviously would be dealt 50 cents on the dollar.[/quote']

 

No

[MANNYHOF24]

Salty strikes again

[Station 13]

Lester giving Salty a workout everytime.

[NC Sox Fan]

Cue the circus music...

[SemperFi Sox]

Jackson you're a tool, clueless

[wyo-sox]

These clowns are not only loosing games they are destroying their trade value. We may be in a valley for a while. I hope not....... but wow, just wow.

[jacksonianmarch]

Jackson you're a tool' date=' clueless[/quote']

 

you're one to talk, lol

Lolz.... The Yankee fan still suggesting we trade all our former all-stars for peanuts......

[Station 13]

why the f*** is Punto way behind

[jacksonianmarch]

Lolz.... The Yankee fan still suggesting we trade all our former all-stars for peanuts......

 

the sox got peanuts for Youkilis. They should get something for Lester, but you really think he is gonna bring an ace haul back when he is pitching to a 5+ ERA and only going 5 innings?

[SemperFi Sox]

you're one to talk' date=' lol[/quote']

 

Ok mr 28,000

[Elktonnick]

Lolz.... The Yankee fan still suggesting we trade all our former all-stars for peanuts......

 

the operative word is former all stars

[jacksonianmarch]

Ok mr 28' date='000[/quote']

 

I guess this makes sense in the argument, kinda, maybe, not really?

[a700hitter]

This is no fun at all. We are fighting so hard to regain last place. This is not what I expected a week before the trading deadline.

[redsoxbeatz]

I guess this makes sense in the argument' date=' kinda, maybe, not really?[/quote']

 

It is, sort of. You spend an incredible amount of your time egging on your rivals. But hey, you got nothing better to do.

[a700hitter]

Honestly, this team has not been merely mediocre since last September 1st, but it has truly been an embarrassment.

[jung]

Wow,

 

at this rate it won't matter who they are resting today but yea I do think at least real baseball fans are sorta' getting screwed by this team and this management. We don't even get to watch good baseball. You would think we would deserve that from a ML baseball team. The Sox don't play good baseball. Of course I don't think most of the folks sitting in those Fenway seats would know good baseball from a monster truck pull.

1 bad season dude. He's throwing 95+ still. Lefty with a track record, cheap contract. You think anyone like 140M deal for Hamels, Grienke?
