  1. He'll be up at some point this year for sure.
  2. He said that once he heard "no surgery" that his brain shut down and he doesn't know his injury. He's not a very reliable source atm. Is he hiding something or just a dummy?
  3. @brianmacp Drew Pomeranz yields a rocket line drive and then a titanic home run to the first two hitters he faces in his first spring-training game.
  4. Got kicked. Now on another board.
  5. Farrell confirmed that Price will start season on DL.
  6. I didn't say pollyanna or realist. I'm not Fred. I didn't disparage you. All I've said is that your optimism will always lead you to thinking that a positive result is likely. I didn't say that was a bad thing either.
  7. It is known.
  8. Yup, if Pom looks ok, the fears about Price may be lessened when he's not with the club in April.
  9. http://www.espn.com/blog/boston/red-sox/post/_/id/51985/what-do-we-really-know-about-david-prices-elbow But the questions about Price's health linger. For one thing, it isn't entirely clear what was so wrong with the Red Sox's $217 million man that he jetted off to the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis on March 3 for an urgent consultation with Drs. James Andrews and Neal ElAttrache, two prominent orthopedic surgeons. If Price knows, he isn't saying. But he insists he doesn't actually know... Without knowing more about what was wrong, it's impossible to handicap the odds of it recurring. Moreover, there's no telling what sort of pitcher the Red Sox can expect to see whenever Price is ready to pitch again. He maintained that he isn't putting a timetable on such things, though he said he feels better to this point than he anticipated.
  10. MOON! @PawSox Marco Hernandez enters today’s game against the @BlueJays tied for the most hits in Spring Training with 10. #SoxSpring
  11. No reason to trade Sandy or Christian unless Blake is ready.
  12. His defense is good, but not otherworldly as we thought it could have been. If his glove stays at "solid but not spectacular," his bat won't play. Frankly, I thought his glove was a little underwhelming, if not straight up disappointing, last year. If his glove was outstanding last year, maybe they would have had more of a reason to move Swihart to a new position. I think that since CV didn't make any great leaps last year, that they think Swihart's upside may be worth keeping at C. They obviously don't see CV as their future at this point.
  13. Are you talking about the 2017 starting All Star for your American Leaguers? Not on the 40 man roster. Unless you are JH's accountant, not sure why it would bother you. Another guy who has a history of postseason success and is enjoying a nice Spring Training. After coming back from numerous injuries, this guy could be a solid #5 hitter if he regains form. Again, unless you are JH's accountant, the off the books $ shouldn't matter. It doesn't impact the MLB team at all if the guy stinks up the joint. Yeah, screw that Theo guy. What a bum! Terrible GM... He's a decent enough signing. Solid glove at 1b. Due to Hanley's injury history, it was a smart move to bring in a professional 1b on cheap $.
  14. Because of your rosy outlook, everything you read and hear will always sound good. To a pessimist, everything they read and hear will always sound bad. For me, all I'm saying is it's too early to tell what will happen with Price. He hasn't thrown off the mound, pitched a simulated game, or thrown back to back starts without feeling discomfort. Until he actually pitches in a game, I'm not going to guess on how long he'll be out.
  15. For sure.
  16. If your biggest complaint is one of the best closers in the game, you must have a pretty good team.
  17. Seems like? How do we know if he hasn't thrown off a mound yet?
  18. Kendrick is a real option to fill in, unlike last year's options.
  19. Pablo Pedey Beni Betts Hanley JBJ Bogey Moreland Leon
  20. I think the Boston Sports Media should just STFU and write actual baseball stories about the onfield product rather than trying to ape the tabloids.
  21. The theory is that as long as the timing of his mechanics stays good, that he has a better chance to not have his elbow blow up.
  22. Need to rely on the coaching. I'd rather him make these mistakes in ST and learn from them.
  23. I'm trying to care about his responses to stupid questions, but I just can't. As long as he brings the chip on his shoulder to his starts, I'm fine with whatever.
