Manny hits it really hard for the 2nd straight AB.
-
Lovely.
-
Keep it going Marky Mark. (I didn't think I'd be saying that about our 2B again this year)
-
Tough luck for Rudy. He was a bloop single away from a clean inning with 2 K's.

The Sox are getting Meche'd again. I like this new term I've created. Gil Meche is the quintessential craptastic pitcher that should never shut a line up down.
-
I think RSR's game info at the top of the thread says that Francona thinks somewhere in the 80-90 pitch range. I think we'll see him another inning.

Not a homer, but he hit it hard which is a good sign.

They had the NESN feed yesterday.

Go Tito! Nice addition RSR.

I don't think it is. It still has the potential to be a bad trade, but we need to wait until tomorrow to get a little more information because that is when Arroyo's replacement will be pitching. If DiNardo can go out there and keep the Sox in the game (and the ball in the yard), then this is a good trade for the Sox because that is what Arroyo provided most of the time (without the ball in the yard part), and DiNardo + WMP would be worth more to the Sox than Arroyo alone. On the other hand, if DiNardo gets lit up like a Christmas tree, then yes, Wily Mo's performance hasn't been good enough to give up league average innings at the back of the rotation.

Nope, you couldn't be more wrong. I know I'm a novice at baseball analysis, and I readily admit it. That said, I will call you out when I see bad/faulty logic or statistical incorrectness. And regurgitating BP? Ok, show me where. I rarely read their articles, but I do use their stats. So, if using their metrics is considered regurgitating, well then you got me. The only thing is, everyone here, and on every message board, is guilty of the same thing since everyone goes somewhere to look up the stats they use. Look, if you have a problem with me getting involved in many of the discussions here, well then, I don't give a f***. This is a message board. It's entire purpose is for people to share their thoughts/opinions/analysis/whatever. If you don't like or disagree with what I say, then provide a counter point, but don't bitch about me getting involved.

At least you knew your post was a weak one since you were awaiting my response. I think he's just below elite, but not by a lot. And not by enough to make 700's point invalid, which is really what this is all about. It is a semantical argument whereby the Yankee fans here want to discredit Beckett's performance thus far. Say the opposition was weak, therefore the performance is less impressive.
-
I think he means Wang, but quoted the wrong post. It takes light emitted from the Andy Pettitte Galaxy at least 5 or 6 light years to reach the Pedro Martinez Galaxy.
-
Don't twist your arm patting yourself on the back while the point goes completely over your head. Your knock on Sexson not being elite was his high K total. ARod is elite and strikes out a lot too, as most sluggers do, thus your knock on Sexson is invalidated. He does not compare ARod to Sexson, he shows the hole in your logic.
-
I'll take your word for it. It would have looked a lot better if you had assessed both sides of the equation, i.e. the value of Arroyo vs. the value of Wily Mo + DiNardo. EDIT: And if you had mentioned everyone on the DL, not just Boomer.
-
No more holes, YAY!
-
Nobody is doubting that Arroyo would have some value since Boomer is on the DL. What remains to be seen is if DiNardo can replace that value. If he can maintain his current peripheral stats, it's a safe assumption that he'll be able to do that. And the value he will be replacing is league average pitching (despite Bronson's good start, he was a league average pitcher in the AL East). But that doesn't interest you. Nor are you interested in assessing Wily Mo's value to the team with 2 OFs on the DL. You want to sling a little mud and make the FO look bad, which is why you completely neglected to mention Wily Mo's value in your original post. Yes, Bronson would add some value, but is it more than what Wily Mo and DiNardo bring to the table given the Sox current injury problems? I'm not sure that it is at this point. Monday will provide us with some data to consider when DiNardo takes the bump in place of Boomer.
-
Let's not cherry-pick here. Not only is Wells headed to the DL, but they already have 2 OFs on the DL. Without Wily Mo, who is patrolling the OF? Mohr? He's played well, but he's not much to get excited about looking forward. Another thing. It was too early to say Schilling or Beckett are going to be good this year after 2 starts, but it's OK to say Arroyo is? At least try and be consistent.
-
Yeah, but nobody is confusing you for a MENSA member*. *I feel the need to say this so you don't have a heavy flow day. I'm just going tit for tat with you since you like to talk s***.

Was he supposed to do it in 2?

This is the first one you'll face that actually deserved it.

Good start.
