    There's no denying that Bowden could have been a lot better. But this isn't Abe Alvarez or David Pauley. Bowden has big league stuff.

    Pretty big question really. No matter what scenario you can imagine, Game 3 is the most critical game in a 5 game series. Either you're putting the Angels away, breaking a tie, or scrambling for survival. I'd run with the kid. Daisuke is a canny pitcher but he just doesn't have the stuff Buchholz has. the caveate here is that if buchholz shows signs that his last start has rattled him (like it did after the walkoff in Tampa last year) then I go with Dice. I'd rather not throw a kid into the fire in the playoffs if his confidence is less than full.

    After our disappointingly aborted comeback attempt tonight, the Angels did us a favor by beating the Rangers. Our magic number was 1, so we're in the playoffs. What a blah way to achieve a moment of triumph. Perhaps I'm just spoiled. Ahh well, I'll take it anyway it comes. Good bad, climactically awesome like a Youks walkoff would have been, or by letting the Angels do the dirty deed. See you all in October.

    Not if Texas loses.

    Apropros of nothing the Yankee comeback is on.

    That was a lollipop. A friggin' lollipop.

    Just stay within yourself Youk. Don't go for the longball unless it's right there.
  11. Dojji
    One way or the other.

    COMPLETE THE COMEBACK.
  13. Dojji
    There ya go.

    In the rain.

    It would certainly be helpful to building a lineup that is elite at scoring runs both the new way (OBP/SLG) and the old way (speed and contact)

    They picked up Francoeur, so Reddick would likely be interesting to them. I've heard someone speculate in the past that they'd be interested in Kalish as well. I'd rather not deal Ellsbury unless we had to, or unless we got Jose Reyes back. Even if we did get Reyes back, the prospect of a 1-2-3 in the lineup of Ellsbury, Reyes and Beltran would score us a lot of runs.
  17. Dojji
    If we could score Beltran and Reyes both, then you move Buchholz.
  18. Dojji
    I wonder what it WOULD take to land Jose Reyes. He wouldn't be cheap, but could you imagine Ellsbury and Reyes one and two in our batting order? Teams would need to invent the relief catcher. Ellsbury singles to the opposite field, Reyes drives a double into the gap and steals third, or triples outright, then scores on a Victor Martinez flyout, 2-0 Boston, 1 out. We'd see that scenario play out several times.

    you're overreacting. Buchholz looked pretty putrid last year too. Look at him now. Some of the best pitchers in the game have mediocre rookie and pre-rookie campaigns. CAse in point: Curt Schilling, who floundered in the pen for years before even getting a chance to start.

    http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090928&content_id=7207350&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb' Back spasms. At the worst possible time. Fortunately this is an injury that can clear up and not leave a lot of performance problems in its wake.
  21. Dojji
    Which is me agreeing with him.
  22. Dojji
    Yeah, we are built better for the postseason but that doesn't erase what the Yankees did in the regular season.
  23. Dojji
    Seriously. Making the playoffs is what teams play the regular season for. It's never a waste of time.
  24. Dojji
    Actually, UZR/150 does reflect that Bay is a poor left fielder. my point is that for the next 2-3 years at least he's unlikely to get significantly worse.

    Isn't Roethilsberger a two time superbowl champ???
