  1. Yeah but you're biased. Stop it.
  2. Because again, Eric Bedard has a TORN LABRUM. Do you know the effects a torn labrum has on a pitcher? And DUCHSCHERER is coming off major elbow rehab and got scratched from his 2009 major league debut for clinical depression, he didn't throw a single pitch to the plate in 2009 for an MLB team.. Listen, i'm not trying to be a douche, but you're doin' exactly what he did. Get your fact straights before throwing stuff out there. If you're gonna come in and try to issue the puppy dog defense team statement, at least make it with reason Jesus Christ.
  3. Getting the discussion back on track, part of the reason why i don't think the FO will sign two FA Sp's is because the LF and SS situations need to be addressed.
  4. Rockies in 5. Ubaldo Jimenez with 2 W's.
  5. He probably will. But that's what i've been trying to tell you about diminished stuff all along.
  6. Isn't that exactly what this team is looking for? Yeah but the guy has a torn labrum. Genius assessment. Wut? Grasping at straws. I didn't know that: A) You had any knowledge of how much the Sox are willing to spend. B ) A 5th starter was our only concern this offseason (Bay, SS,) C) You have any idea how the Sox are going to use their resources. You need to stop living in Doiji-land.
  7. Sure, but when the guy has the stuff to succeed and you take out the unsustainable 4.35 BB/9 attributed at first to coming back from an elbow injury which, unlike a torn labrum the pitcher can come back fully from, then sure. The comparison was Penny-Harden, master of the strawman. I wrongfully assumed you had ACTUALLY somewhat followed Bedard this year and knew his fastball velocity was along normal ranges before the 100,000 injuries of this year, and that the massive drop is concerning because of the sample size of pitching post-injury. I fail for assuming you could make such a complicated connection, and for that, i apologize. Good question, why i keep trying to convince you of the utter failure that 90% of your posts could be classified as is beyond me. Let me sum it up: Bedard had a torn labrum. Harden does not. That simple enough for you?
  8. Cards in 4. Lol Dodgers.
  9. Hitter's paradise compared to the NL West. I wasn't even gonna bring it up. But you're just being stupid. Harden was successful before in the AL, so what in heaven's name are you talking about? It's not velocity. He's lost break and velocity on all his pitches. http://www.fangraphs.com/pitchfx.aspx?playerid=126&position=P You mean the Doiji special? He's being paid millions of dollars. He needs to STFU and play. I'm talking pure stuff, and non-torn labrums. Don't try to weasel yourself out of the meat of the argument.
  10. Fastball and breaking stuff velocity, i did not know K/9 was the benchmark to quantify stuff, specially in the AL West. Except that while Lester's pitching, Bedard's on the DL with arm trouble. He was being a DICK and complaining about not liking the city and the team. Read much? At least he's not a bitching dick, and the fact that he has better stuff and upside is not debatable.
  11. Better known as facepalm.
  12. Sure i can. The FO just tried to bring two damaged good pitchers this season and it backfired. Why the f*** would they do it again, specially considering there's only one rotation spot open and we still don't even know what'll happen with Wake. Sometimes, certain people here like to substitute logic ad reality for senseless fantasy.
  13. Your comparing of Brad Penny to Rich Harden is laughable. Oh? I told you to go check on Bedard's diminished stuff. More than that in a minute. About health, Bedard is not only oft-injured, but his desire to pitch has come into question. Thanks, but no thanks. So this makes you think the Sox will again go with two question marks? Read above. Thank the Lord you're not a member of the Sox FO, because i was certain that going the damaged good route with more than one pitcher was a lesson well learned. Oh, and to keep you from making stuff up, Harden pitched 189 innings in 2004. Get your stats straight.
  14. Lol Harden, even with his 4 ERA was HEALTHIER than both the pitchers you mentioned. What the f*** are you talkin' about? Not to mention he's got better stuff than both. And i didn't know you were part of the Sox FO, because i'm pretty certain they'll be looking for a starter and some insurance. Enlighten me as to which of Bedard and JD would be considered insurance for a rotation spot.
  15. A) The two worse options. B ) Both aren't happening.
  16. We need a starter, not a swingman, the person whose premise is incorrect in the first place is Doiji. This is meant to be a play on words, i know i'm responding to Doiji.
  17. Not to mention he's one of less than 20 OF's to actually amass 900 PA's since 2007.
  18. Now you're just grasping at straws. How can you justify a .500 SLG, 900+ OPS player not being able to hit 3rd and 4th. And to further strengthen my case, you're actually using Tito's "logic" as an argument. Fantastic.
  19. He's being defensive because while JD Drew is being nothing but one of the most productive OF's in baseball, people keep bashing him. Put that .900 + OPS in the three, four, or five spot, and he probably contributes 100 RBI. You're just bashing Drew with no way to back up your argument without resorting to such a useless statistic as RBI.
  20. Rhet has managed Javier Lopez levels of trolling in this site. RBI's are ********, my good sir. The GM of the only team this decade to win two WS championships disregards them, and who the f*** told you you know more about baseball than this team FO's anyway?
