    Nice, I really wasn't expecting much but Carter is one of the better 1B prospects in baseball.
  2. Rdsxmbnt
    He looked better, control was still a bit off. First pitch he threw to Anderson was laced into right for a single but thats the only hard contact they made, Pedroia couldn't quite handle the grounder towards him, but he did have 3 Ks.

    I wont make excuses for last year when I saw Beckett was not a good pitcher, however his numbers from last year weren't anywhere near what his career has been, switch from NL to AL and all. His command of the strikezone is significantly improved, the changes he made in mechanics and pitching stance has paid huge dividends. His control especially is significantly better, and his HR/9 component is back in line with his career norms which can be attributed to his much better command of the strikezone like I said, his K/9 is a reflection of that also. This season is not a fluke, assuming he doesn't change anything from now and next season (I dont know why he would ), Josh Beckett is a significantly different and significantly better pitcher than the guy we saw last year, and even quite a bit improved and matured over the Beckett that pitched for Florida. K/9 BB/9 HR/9 2002 9.45 3.68 1.08 2003 9.63 3.55 0.57 2004 8.73 3.10 0.92 2005 8.36 2.92 0.70 2006 6.95 3.25 1.58 2007 8.63 1.75 0.52

    Not that I really care about this argument but no I would not teach a kid to throw at a person's head for watching his HR.

    i knew it was too good to be true

    There is a ton of flaws in using QS to judge a pitcher. Just using Beckett as an example, what if he decides to pitch an extra inning on opening day in a 7-1 blowout, that would turn into a QS. What if he gets taken out after six innings in the Yankees game earlier in the year, theres another QS. What if he doesn't have a freak injury in a game in May, theres yet another QS. If those all happened then he is 2nd in the AL in QS%.

    No it was compensation, you get the teams first round pick and a supp. pick for a type A. Its funny because the Yankees have gotten Hughes and Kennedy from Phillies picks and they have Jon Lieber and Tom Gordon to show for it.

    guess he was hurt, he was placed on the 15 Day DL with a strained calf according to soxprospects.
  9. Rdsxmbnt
    nice manny! 8-5 sox!
  10. Rdsxmbnt
    PAPI!
  11. Rdsxmbnt
    Just back from the game, Gagne was pathetic and got a water bottle thrown at him. I'm done defending him, he needs to show me something before I can ever have any faith in him. Tito stop using him in big situations he is NOT getting it done.
  12. Rdsxmbnt
    monster shot for Dped!
  13. Rdsxmbnt
    couldnt catch a break with that barage of singles but gets a lineout DP
  14. Rdsxmbnt

  15. Rdsxmbnt

  16. Rdsxmbnt
    shoot dougy is hurt
  17. Rdsxmbnt
    papi!
  18. Rdsxmbnt
    Scaff I know those were just rough projections but you can't be serious with some of those rankings, Britton just making the top 75??
  19. Rdsxmbnt
    Call me a prospect homer or w/e but you dont trade a prospect like Masterson and a cost-controlled set-up man for a 1yr bench player.
  20. Rdsxmbnt
    3 IP, 0 hits, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K since his first start: 11 IP, 3 hits, 0 ER, 2 BB, 14 K
  21. Rdsxmbnt
    Middlebrooks/Britton/Bailey have all reportedly signed now also
  22. Rdsxmbnt
    Middlebrooks has indeed signed, no word on amount yet
  23. Rdsxmbnt
    And 1B David Mailman, a 7th round pick has been signed for $550,000. And all reports indicate Middlebrooks will sign, stay tuned.
  24. Rdsxmbnt
    I know we came close to winning and yada yada but close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. There is a serious problem with this offense. The 1-5 guys went 1 for 21, and to add insult to injury we floundered all night vs. a guy with an ERA near 7 and Al Reyes tore through the top of the lineup. Thats just embarrasing, striking out 3 times vs. Al freaking Reyes.
