Could have had this guy for two more million. PINERO IS DUHREABLE!!! -
Francona may make an occasional mistake here or there, but nothing too serious. He's pretty damn good with the players, and that's always valuable in Boston. I'm a fan. BTW, how many wins on average does a manager cost a team? Probably not a whole lot.

Ratliff is an expiring contract, which are pretty valuable these days.

That team better win the whole thing next year.

He had just came off of a 2.30 ERA season for the Astros, and he looked like he was able to ward off Father Time. Even if you adjust for pitching in the AL, and a little bit of age related decline, he still would be a pretty good pitcher. Then we saw his 87 mph fastball.

Anyway, the Yankee game has been suspended. Yanks lead 8-6 in the 8th.

At the time of the deal, Roger Clemens looked like he was a better pitcher than Tavarez or Buchholz. Was he worth $28 million? No, but he looked like a good option at $12 million. I didn't expect him to be this bad. I had him down for a 3.80 - 4.20 ERA range. After watching him pitch these last two months, he looks like he's destined to finish with a 4.80 -5.20 ERA. I guess the FO got lucky. Again.

Kirilenko averaged 8.2 PPG in 2007. I'm not a fan.

$12 million is not $28 million.

Vazquez - 98 IP 86 H 43 ER 26 BB 93 K's 3.95 ERA Salary - $11 million The team is 3rd in RS this year.

You can't possibly think it's that black and white.

Did the Warriors trade Richardson?

Sarcasm.

What? Your justification of signing Clemens was, "Who cares about the money, you would feel better if Roger Clemens took the ball in Game four rather than Gabbard, Hansack, or Tavarez." I agree with that. I disagree with this. Buchholz has shown that he can command the strike zone with three quality pitches. Based on his numbers, he has dominated the minor league levels at every stop. Pitchers with his kind of arsenal, and his numbers have very good track records of success in the major leagues. OK, I have shown that I agree with you in some areas of your point, but disagree about two other pitchers. I think we are done here.

Says the guy who thinks $28 million doesn't affect a budget that much. You sir, are an idiot.

In the game against Baltimore, he topped at 90 mph once. He was sitting between 86 and 89 mph. Was Clemens a good investment for $28 million? This is why I didn't want him. I'd rather take that money, and go get Mark Buerhle, Javier Vazquez, etc.. He's got a 5.32 ERA. This isn't Houston, where he was completely dominating. He's a big part of the problem, too.
