  1. Dipre gets screwed by the injury bug as Matt Holliday goes down with an appendectomy. Drafting Cardinals looks like a very risky opposition.
  2. He was on the same staff with Tiant and Marty Pattin in 1972. He had good stuff until his arm gave out that year.
  3. Such is the hit and miss uncertainty regarding prospects.
  4. It would be hard to find anyone better than Gibson.
  5. Although still great in Boston, his best years were behind him by the time he joined the Sox.
  6. The competition level might be the highest on a Sunday in April, but it's not the World Series. As for the 2004 ALCS, if the players had a let down against the Cardinals and lost, we'd still be eating s*** from the Yankee fans and no one would care about that ALCS, just like the exciting comeback in the 1986 ALCS became largely irrelevant when they lost the World Series to the Mets. The World Series is it. As spectacular as Halladay's No-no was in last year's playoffs, even if it had been a perfect game, it would not rise to the same level as Don Larsen's game, simply because of the difference in the stages.
  7. The World Series is the pinnacle. Lots of great players never get there at all. Very few get there and dominate. No one did so better than Schilling. The Playoffs are on TBS, and the World Series is on a major network for a reason. It is more important. Period.
  8. Other than Pedro, if I needed a Sox win in a big game, I'd have to hand the ball to El Tiante. What a competitor. He'd find a way to beat you even if he had nothing.
  9. The rest of the world (other than Yankee and Red Sox) fanatics pay more attention to the World Series. Although we like to think so, all baseball experience is not centered around the Yankees and Red Sox.
  10. No, the level of play is different.
  11. ^ This. There never was anyone better in a Sox uniform in any era.
  12. It 's hard to be under rated when you are overpaid.
  13. The World Series is the most important series. It's the best against the best. He's been in 2 World Series and his results are average.
  14. Relax! I was joking. You need to reign in your emotions. With your health conditions, your head could explode for real.
  15. 2-2 with 4.55 ERA in two World Series?
  16. No one can match his post-season record.
  17. Lester is no Curt Schilling.
