    wow.
  3. jacksonianmarch
    you really love that trade dont you crunch.
  4. jacksonianmarch
    I am only advocating Igawa vs you guys because you seem to have trouble vs lefties not named Chase. Plus, if you can neutralize Papi and Drew, you increase your chances of success. Either way, I am not holding out hope here. I have a feeling the pen will be feeling the burn on Saturday.

    and he cant get him out as a yankee.

    Either way, right now, Igawa is terrible and I'd rather see a kid like Karstens start. At least Karstens throws strikes when needed and for the most part, should be a decent #5 against teams that dont rake.

    I agree that he isnt Dice K. But you have to look at his stuff and say, well, he certainly COULD be a major league starter. His slurve and his changeup are very solid. But it is more a philosophical thing than anything else, and I think he will need some time to solve that. His track record says that he has good control. But he needs to start living down in the zone and not up at chest level. It may take awhile, but when watching him vs Wright, you can see how advanced Igawa is. Igawa just needs maybe a full season at AAA. But I wont write him off as a SP altogether.

    and as far a Hughes is concerned, I am not expecting him to be dominant off the bat. I just think he is the best option available at this point and bringing him up now is the best option. I dont think he will settle into the 1 hole in the rotation until next yr anyway or even the year after. Like I said before, I could see him as a 6IP per start, 4 something ERA guy right now which is all we need.

    I agree, it aint perfect. But having our top 3 back is huge for us. Remember, we had Chase Wright starting FOR Wang and Mussina. Not alongside them. It wasnt like some s***** experiment with the 5 hole. He was pitching in the 1 slot. Igawa needs a minor league stint IMO. I love his offspeed stuff, but he is very inconsistent with it. In his 2 non-sucky starts, his era is 3.13. In his 2 awful starts his ERA is north of 13. That reaks of inconsistency. He may just get that too. If Karstens wins the 4 spot and Hughes throws well tonight, Igawa may be sent to the minors to fix a few things with the delivery.

    they havent decided. I think they will likely go with Karstens just because he has better control. But if they want to try and win, they'd throw Igawa. Karstens didnt fool anyone his last start.

    Thursday vs Toronto -- Phil Hughes Friday vs Boston -- Andy Pettitte Saturday vs Boston -- Igawa or Karstens Sunday vs Boston -- Chien-Ming Wang Monday OFF DAY Tuesday @ Texas -- Mike Mussina not too shabby. There is a possibility that Hughes could win a job this week if he pitches well, but chances are, he may return to AAA regardless. Otherwise, Igawa will reclaim his spot and Karstens will snag the open Pavano slot. One other possibility is Igawa going to AAA to work on his location, Karstens taking Igawa's slot and Hughes taking Pavano's slot. In other news, Rick Suttcliffe is saying that Pavano told him he is done for the yr. Pavano has denied this and actually reported improvement in his last bullpen session 2 days ago. Either way, Suttcliffe could have conjectured it and been right. Not many are assuming Pavano is returning.

    yep. If only we had a healthy moose pitching in game 2, we'd have a similar pitching matchup as we had in he fens.
  14. jacksonianmarch
    #741 tonight. Mother f***er.
  15. jacksonianmarch
  16. jacksonianmarch
    yep, I was right. Peavy out. 7IP 16K
  17. jacksonianmarch
    Peavy at 117 pitches through 7. I dont think they let him go for it.

    game over. Sox win.
  22. jacksonianmarch
    what happened, all I see is a dot at the wall in RCF.
  23. jacksonianmarch
    stopped the bleeding way too late.
  24. jacksonianmarch
    that is the game.
  25. jacksonianmarch
    well, I thought Cabrera would have a good game, and he did. I am surprised Schill is matching him.
