  1. This game is typical Yankee baseball. Get a few runs early, then picket fence towards the end of the game. We hadnt scored at all the past 2 games, but one of the things we've been lacking even before then is the 2 or 3 runs we add on late in games. It's good to see we've brought that back tonight. Hopefully it will continue
  2. I think the only thing this yr shows is that is stuff isnt THAT blow away amazing. I think his polish is his biggest asset. His control was good as evidenced by a pretty good BB rate, but he also got hit at a pretty high rate. I stick with my assessment of this kid, that he makes the bigs, but isnt an ace type pitcher. Which is why I find it a little strange that the sox are considering him completely untouchable.
  3. the sox typically own the angels and the angels suck it hard this yr. This should be an easy sweep
  4. Unless someone has a clear advantage like Greinke last yr, being the ace on a playoff team has a ton of merit. With Shields and Garza taking a step back this yr, Price has been the ace and savior of that club. Lester, right now, is on a team that is 6 games back of a playoff spot. If they dont make the playoffs, then he has no chance
  5. He'll be in the discussion, but I think Lee and Price are gonna be headlining that group, with Lester and Sabathia in the 3-4 range
  6. CC shows that he is an ace. He didnt have nearly his best location, but he had a ton of movement and gutted out a solid 7IP. Now, can the pen hold a 2 run lead?
  7. He has a strained lat muscle. He's expected to throw in the fall league. Stats for the yr... 3-5 95IP 118H 56ER 81K 35BB 1.61WHIP 7.7K/9IP They rushed him a bit especially as a 20 yr old. He struggled this yr, especially in May and July where his ERA was over 6.00. He has thrown exactly the same amount of innings he threw last season, which is why the fall league is so important in building up his strength. Chances are, he repeats AA next yr and has most likely fallen from the top spot in the sox prospect rankings. I'd have Kalish up at #1 now.
  8. That looked pretty good, cmon CC hold it down for 2 more outs
  9. Well, Buchholz did miss 3 starts due to the hamstring issue
  10. Might be time to warm up the pen
  11. 6 run lead, pitcher over 100 pitches through 6, why is he still in the game?
  12. He'd be a good SS in the NL West or Central. 8th hitter, offensive black hole but defensive whiz
  13. I love Pena's glove, but his bat is an absolute black hole. He's the perfect utility infielder, but I think we deal him within the next couple seasons. His glove is starting caliber at SS
  14. This Angels lineup is a joke. Callaspo in the 3 hole? Really?
  15. No, he doesnt, but his stuff looks good. Hard fastball and his changeup is moving a ton. He just is having trouble locating. Might be a night to pull the big guy after 7
  16. Got it in just enough
  17. Reddick is behind Kalish and Nava on the OF depth chart. Next yr is his make or break yr, but I think it will be made on another club. He's prime trade bait
  18. The happy ending went wildly awry
  19. Kalish is under team control for 6 more yrs
  20. Depends on who the sox have in the OF. If they have 2 guys starting who are capable of playing CF, then Nava will be the 4th OFer. If the sox get Werth and have Ellsbury or Cameron in CF, then Nava wont be. The sox need 2 players capable of playing CF. If both of those guys are starting, then they can carry Nava
  21. Kalish is worth a LOT more as a CFer than as a LFer and the same for Ellsbury. Those two guys in LF they are average overall compared to the big boppers in those positions. Youkilis is an elite offensive talent regardless of where he plays
  22. Their max value comes from the ability to play CF. Theo is all about value, and you can get a big time power hitting COFer while having one of the above in CF
  23. So, yeah, that Ellsbury guy might not be long for the Red Sox. I like Kalish and think he could be better than Ellsbury long term
