  1. They changed his mechanics because he was not consistent with the command of his fastball, not because of injury concerns.
  2. He might have to steal a few laptops to help him make ends meet until he gets called up.
  3. There are only six division leaders, and the Red Sox are one of them. Most teams stink. Being with an organization like Boston, gives a pitcher a better chance of succeeding when he makes it to the majors than he would have with most other teams. With a strong Red Sox team in 2008, Bucholz stunk out the joint. He wasn't unlucky. He was bad, very bad. Even if he has worked out his troubles in AAA, he would be likely to experience alot of failure in the rotations of teams like the Marlins and the Natinals. He's lucky to be with the Red Sox and to be highly regarded by their FO. He'll get his shot soon enough. His career got derailed by his own terrible performance when he was given a shot. He should shut his trap and do his work so that when he gets his shot he has a better chance of succeeding.
  4. I posted this in another thread: If they get some double headers later in the summer, he might get called up for a start or two. He probably will get a start or two in September. Other than that, he'll get his shot at the rotation next year. He really can't complain that he has done everything he needs to do, because he spit the bit big time when he was handed the job last year. That was his fault. His failure caused the FO to make other plans and commitments for this season, because they couldn't rely on him. Those are one year commitments. He'll get another shot next year. If he keeps his head on straight maybe he won't blow it again next year.
  5. Taking two of three from the Mets has probably given Girardi some breathing room. That makes me happy. If the mets had swept the Yanks, he'd probably have been fired on Monday after dropping 6 in a row to the Sox and the Mets. I want Girardi in that Yankee dugout.
  6. I think Bard is much more advanced at this stage than Delcarmen was, and Delcarmen has developed into a pretty good pitcher. He's not as advanced as papelbon, but very few take the league by storm like Papelbon did a an early age.
  7. OMG Jackson!! Please stop with this crap. Now we are getting threads on Yankee interest in Cuban defectors. What's next, threads on the Yankees signing of international scouts, or maybe the stockpiling of sperm samples and eggs from All Star players and Olympic athletes. Please stop! I preferred your banned alter ego before you went on your meds. At least Rivernator was interesting.
  8. He used to kill Sox pitching.
  9. So, why get in his face before today's game?
  10. That's the fastest that lowell has run all year.
  11. Tito ended up using both Saito and Masterson. I don't understand whay he would have gone to Bard instead of one of them when the game was hanging in the balance in the 7th inning.
  12. Walking the oppposing pitcher is never good. It was a big mistake putting the kid in that spot.
  13. Two men in the booth is enough talking.
  14. Beckett goes yard!! lol!! Well he's hitting well, but pitching like s*** today. Go figure.
  15. He wasn't going to get him at first anyway.
  16. He was in the Bullpen last night too. Hopefully, that will be his new residence when Smoltz is activated. He can return to the rotation if Dice K's bad luck continues.
  17. The Sox would have smacked the s*** out of them in the WS if they had gotten by the Rays. Their pitching is Haapless.
  18. Burnett has temporarily lost command and loaded the bases with no outs on 2 walks and a hit.
  19. Back to backers by Baldelli and Green. We will not see that again.
  20. KRod should just have ignored Bush Leaguer Bruney. He's irrelevant. Any attention from KRod unnecessarily elevates the scrub.
  21. I hate this lineup. Lugo leading off? No Pedroia, Ortiz, or Drew?
  22. He says that he is tired of KRod's act. Has he seen Joba's act? What a jerk. http://blogs.nypost.com/sports/mets/archives/2009/06/bruney_k-rod_ha.html KRod fired back pointing out that Bruney is a nobody. Bruney is talking a big game for journeyman.
