What's up one and all:D Nice play from Buchholz.
-
I don't see Delcarmen closing. Maybe on a another team, but not in Boston. I would think both Bard and Ramirez would be ahead of him for internal replacements. I hope everyone is not thinking I would want them to deal Papelbon just to make room. This isn't the case. If they can't get anything to make it worth it back. Then they shouldn't. Would anyone trade Papelbon for Josh Vitters straight up? I'm not saying Vitters is available or trying to turn this into "nappy fantasy land". I'm just trying to gauge his/Papelbon's values from everyone and maybe find out at what point they would feel there is enough of a return to pull the trigger so to speak.

I never mentioned Bard in a Felix "La la la" deal. I also said if Papelbon is dealt. Bard won't be. Bard is in line for being the closer once Papelbon is gone, and that's this year or next. If Bard isn't ready, Wagner might not be a bad fall back option. Was that enough Pepto to clear up the mental diarrhea for you?

Any news?
-
Thanks ORS. I was going to look it up for him, but got side tracked:lol:
-
I didn't even think of Philly. That's a good one. It could work with Lidge's latest meltdown. It's the 40 save curse for him:lol: I mentioned the Cubs. I think the make a lot of sense. But I will admit I am on the record saying Papelbon is a Cub next year;) I'm with ORS, The Nationals and/or Houston would absolutely suck. Along with any other tams 1st rounder. Also we have to consider the chance a team signs him that has alreasy signed a FA that out ranks Wagner. There too the Sox would be looking at a 1A instead of a 1 I believe.

Penny is throwing upper 90's again. When he's throwing that gas he has typically been good in the NL. He can get away with being a 2 pitch pitcher in the NL when he's throwing like that. Hes had years of success in the NL doing this. He just couldn't get away with it in the AL IMO.
-
Any word on how long this might last?
-
Papelbon is fine where he is at. There's no reason to move him. Wagner has been great, but it;s only 5 innings. Beside Wagner wants to close. And I'm sure there is a contender out there that would give him that opportunity. I could see the Cubs being interested in him. They need a closer. And he shouldn't command more then a 2 year deal. I'm sure there some other teams out there as well. Who knows, maybe he ends up in TB?
-
He is the Anti-Gagne. Dude has been filthy. Too bad there isn't away he stick around next season in this role. But I'm sure he's earned a new contract somewhere. So that means picks for the Sox.
-
The chart is straight cash homie:lol: Really?
-
We all leave our lasting impressions... ORS and the Shire. My "Dojji" type prospects, Kilo's metrics, Jacko's Jacksonisim's:lol: All good stuff:D
-
I see him retiring. Then coming out of retirement for the Sox in the 2nd half.
-
Buchholz is dealing lately.
-
Agreed. Felix in NY would be horrible.
-
I would say V-Mart has been consistent enough in the 3rd spot. On the occasion he gets a night off, Drew is a good replacement.
-
This game could be 20+ runs LOL

He may have value as a DH though:dunno: There were many here screaming for it a little while ago. What's Seattles DH situation It does seem like his mobility has gotten better lately. But he is getting regular rest. Which I think is helping. It's really hard to tell is he's 100% until he plays an extended amount of time. And that might not be until next year. Let me ask this to maybe gain some perspective on his value. What would you feel more comfortable seeing in 2010? A. Lowell as the full time 3B B. Lowell in the current rotation C. Lowell and Papi splitting AB's, while getting some playing time at 3B D. On another team
-
Damn, got me there. I really just flat out forgot about him. he looks like a good young player. Maybe Lowell can DH;)(Don't worry, that's about the last straw I can grasp at lol) No not really. With the right moves they could be. But like I've said before, if they are unconcerned with 2010, then yes the Lowell/Dice-K package would make very little sense I completely agree. I suck with the more advanced matrix systems, but could someone tell me who provides more winshares? Felix or a combo of Dice-K/Lowell? Would be much appreciated on my part. I know Dice-K will have crap for this year. So maybe a career average, or maybe last 2-3 seasons. I'm really just curious.
-
That's a horrible return. The Blue Jays got Encarnacion(sp) + for Rolen. He's just as much of an injury risk as Lowell is.
-
Money? Trading one guy to fill multiple spots, thus creating a better balanced team? It's not impossible for the to trade Felix and still be competitive. If the can get the Sox to eat Lowell's remaining $, they fill 3B next season for free. And pick up 2 picks for him after the season. Dice-K gives them a good SP to plug into the rotation at a decent price(8M per). They have some decent players on the team. And the FA market could help fill in the rest of the holes. Who knows. I'm just saying it's not impossible. I really don't know what their budget is.
