Definitely. He'll get cheers everytime he takes the mound, cheers when he gets taken out of the game, and the place will go nuts if we pound him into the ground relentlessly. I'll be pissed if we get embarrassed by Pedro, but I'll be happy for him.

What Crespo said. Will your posts ever contain more than some really simple statement that no one cares to notice?

Sorry dude, those are pretty horrid

Hope he recovers. Best of luck to you Pete. Get better.

Just let RSR make the rest of the gamethreads for the rest of the year?

Oh come on, it's not like they wished a brain operation on the man.

This probably doesn't matter, but I'm just curious anyway. I thought I read somewhere, can't remember where, that the Rays also sent $1 million to the Dodgers. Is that true?

Oh snap, I just saw the Florida pitchers we're facing....Josh Johnson scares the hell out of me, he's a stud, and the Sox don't fare well against young rookie studs. Willis is enough said, and let's hope they don't end up with Ricky Nolasco in the TBA spot. Those Marlins have some damn good looking pitchers.

No that's actually pretty good. Did you just find those? Pretty cool stuff right there.

Can't say I'm surprised though.

The link doesn't work.

This is true as well. If he's becoming a big enough distraction then they should be happy to get Clement, Alvarez, and Pedroia in return. If they want OF help maybe they'd accept Murphy if we threw him in there as well. I think they'll definitely bite on Clement, perhaps Alvarez too seeing as they put a big investment in Mazzone.

Pitching is their main concern. They're happy with Markakis (even if he's already ruined with what they've done to him, they still see him as a really patient hitter, and they like that), and Patterson in the outfield. I don't think they'd call on Ellsbury. Their main concern the WHOLE time has been pitching. They have a pretty decent offense with Mora, Ramon Hernandez, Patterson, Miggy, Gibbons, Brian Roberts, etc... I mean, they picked up Russ Ortiz off of waivers this past week, re-uniting him with Mazzone from when they were in Atlanta. I wouldn't put it past them to be interested in Clement, maybe Alvarez. I just can't see us biting on this if we need to give up Hansen or MDC. Those guys have been here, and they're not going anywhere soon. If the name "Lester" comes out of their mouths then the deal's off.

True, but I suppose it depends on what they say they want. I do firmly believe they'd love to have Clement, and hey, maybe they will take Alvarez. They have Mazzone over there so who knows how much trust they put in him. I'm just not willing to part ways with MDC or Hansen, because both of those guys are no longer names for only the future. They're helping us right now where we need it most, the 'pen.

Our current SS is making 1 million/yr. I'd love to see Miggy here too, but that was before this season. I know he'd be happy beside Ortiz and everything, but Gonzo has been hitting about .400 this month, he's made 1 error all year, and he's a huge part of the success of this infield defense. The Sox have a chance to make it 10 straight games tonight, and we're 2.5 ahead of NY. Why fix something that isn't broken? MDC and Hansen can be contributors this year. I wouldn't mind parting with Pedroia to get Tejada here, but I wouldn't give up MDC and Hansen. We need the bullpen to be strong. Those 2 guys aren't the future anymore, they're part of the present as well, and they're doing a pretty good job holding their spots down. I'd love to have him, but not for what it would cost. This team is winning without him, and I don't feel like changing that. I know that you said that those 3 players were a start, but there's no way they'd settle for Alvarez in there, especially being in the AL East. They'd want a MDC, Hansen, and a Lester and then Pedroia to replace Miggy. They have Mazzone over there now, and while I do think they'd like Clement, they'd also want one of our young guys that is currently making an impact at the big league level for us.

I'm excited to see how Milledge handles the monstah.

RSR is so fuking intense MOJO!

Go Sox!

I believe his email address is Celizic@yahoo.com At least that's what it said at the end of another article of his. Try it out, sorry if it doesn't work though. I did some looking around and that's what I found.

Mets* I would.

Babe and Pete Sorry Ted

Yeah, I'm thinking about voting against it myself. That was pretty ridiculous.

Yes, just have a mod change the "25th" to a "26th"

I feel bad for him. He has great stuff, but I remember hearing on the Sox' pre-game one time that Clement said that the last time he felt good was the inning before he got hit with the linedrive. He has also relied on his slider a lot more than he should be. The sinker was what made him successful in the past, and his slider doesn't compensate for the loss of his sinker. He stopped throwing the sinker because that's the ball that has suddenly been hit directly back at him...Bernie Williams (I think) this year right back off his leg, and the infamous linedrive to the head that "I LOVE HANLEY RAMIREZ" girl laughed at He doesn't mix up his arsenal of pitches as well anymore because he doesn't have confidence in his sinker, and he's afraid to hurl it. The ground ball outs he used to get as a result of the use of his sinker are no longer as common as they were, and as a result, he works too hard to get other pitches to work and ends up with a fatigued arm. I'm not writing him off just yet, he just needs to grow some balls back (I know it's tough, I know), and pitch the damn sinker.

She* And that's what I figured, but haha I didn't think someone would be random enough to post it My bad.

I'm confuzzled.
