You saw Beckett have games like this before he established himself in the majors? This guy can never make the majors with his current lack of command.
-
His reason doesn't matter to me because he has zero credibility as far as i am concerned.
-
The same ownership that will finish in last place twice in the last 3 seasons. That's something they haven't done since 1933.
-
He was always around to serve up the crow, but he deserted when it came time to eat some himself. f***ing weasel.
-
Middlebrooks is not going to be a consistent major leaguer. Big power, but not a good hitter at all.
-
Webster has zero value to the organization at this point other than AAA roster filler.
-
They didn't need Alex Wilson or Layne on the roster. They were not necessities. One of them should have been sent down and Renaudo should have stayed on the roster to make his next start. Stupid move sending him down.
-
metrics are not everything. The players will tell you who are the most mentally tough players in big spots. I' ll give way more credence to their opinion than any statistical evidence or lack of evidence. If the players look to other players in big spots, that is good enough for me. Not every good player is good in big spots.

The new batting stance has made all the difference in Mr. Automatic Outs season. 0 for 4 today with 3 more ks. The kid stinks.
-
Poor planning.
-
That doesn't make sense.
-
They sent Ranaudo down?
-
He needs to improve just to be a bad major leaguer.
-
Vasquez has done well with the bat so far. He makes consistently good contact. Not a lot of swings and misses.
-
Mr. Automatic Out doing what he does best - make an out. He not very fast.
-
That was a HR.
-
The mental aspect cannot be disregarded, nor can it be assumed that all players of a certain talent level handle the mental aspect in the same manner. Not only is there no consistency of this aspect among players. There is no uniformity with regard to how each player handles the stresses from day to day. Slumps often become mental for hitters-- even good hitters. Some players handle the day to day games fine, but bigger spots they don't handle so well. They are people not robots. Some people are mentally stronger than others --even at the MLB level there are differences.

what they say and reality aren't the same thing.
-
Maybe if the other 2 are Lester and Scherzer.
-
yes, and you were right when Daniel Bard walked of the Fenway field a couple of years ago that he was through. You have some strong opinions, but when you are right, you have every right to crow about it.
-
I think Cespedes will be a pleasant surprise for people both offensively and defensively.
-
Victorino covers plenty of ground, and he is not going to sit when healthy. Let Betts learn to play CF. He has plenty of speed to cover ground.
-
Ah, just poking you guys a little. Some of us are just more opinionated than others. I wasn't serious.
-
I am interested in seeing him.
-
Yes, those are good points.
