    Pythagoras gets dragged around the mud here a lot, but that's because he was a pathetic Ionian. Should have sided with Alexander. Sad!

    http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/20221508/wild-card-roster-rules-are--wild Nope. It's considered a stand alone playoff series. It's not game 163 anymore.

    I agree with you. If it's a one game situation, Porcello goes first. If they win the division, I'm not sure it makes a big deal if Price or Porcello pitches first.

    Please provide me with any excess magic carping. My son wants to evolve a Gyarados. Thanks...

    That will NEVER happen. It makes no sense to pick up a guy's option to trade him. The return would be dismal at best. Unless you are struggling to field a roster down in Greenville, there's no point in picking up the option just to try an unload him.

    The tough part on late and close stats for Papi is that he'll face additional LOOGY's which would push his numbers down since he's better at hitting RHP.
  7. mvp 78
    I hope so too, but I wouldn't put it past him. My guess is that he'll come back and say "I didn't have time because I had a baby." That's a poor excuse as babies sleep all the time and don't prevent you from watching Sox games.

    Also, for one final time, I guess Porcello's great season has forced iortiz into hiding? At least show up to take your medecine when you're wrong. I will enjoy eating s*** all year with Pedey's resurgence.

    http://www.espn.com/mlb/features/cyyoung Price has SUCKED this year guys!!! Who cares if he is throwing a s*** ton of quality innings this year! He's not 1999 Pedro! Waste of money! Don't pick up that option!
  10. mvp 78
    You'd start Porcello?
  11. mvp 78
    When I said they'd pick up his option, everyone said I was being foolish. How about your declaration that Price should pitch out of the pen in the playoffs?
  12. mvp 78
    No. That would be an insane take.
  13. mvp 78
    Well, if you never want to be taken seriously...
  14. mvp 78
    No, he just thought Price and Buchholz were the same pitcher for some reason.
  15. mvp 78
    To me, it just makes more sense to put Buchholz back in the pen during the playoffs. As previously stated, ERod really doesn't have a bullpen track record. Pomeranz is too good to take out of the rotation.

    Sports teams are not run like businesses. They are run like investments. The true value of the team is not in the day to day revenue, but the overall gain of the asset. If the Sox were sold today, they'd get about $2.5B. The Sox were purchased for $660M less than 15 years ago.
  17. mvp 78
    Was he a pinch runner?
  18. mvp 78
    Put Buchholz back in the pen on Oct 1.
  19. mvp 78
    I thought there was no way to get Pablo there due to service time issues?
  20. mvp 78
    Sometimes the sequel is better than the original, but sometimes it is not.
  21. mvp 78
    The question marks were: Will Price adjust to Boston? It took a while, but he's there now. Will ERod come back healthy? Same as above. Will Porcello pitch more like first half of 2015 or second half? Looks like the first half was the fluke, not the second half. Will Buchholz stay in the rotation? He did not, but he's fighting to re-earn his spot. Will Kelly stay in the rotation? Nope, he's gone. If either Kelly or Buchholz falter, can Wright be serviceable? Even with his recent injury, he was still the best "5th starter" in the league. Thankfully, Pomeranz is also pitching like he's still in San Diego.
  22. mvp 78
    Pomeranz is the #3 right now and it's not even close.
  23. mvp 78
    Which WAR is on the back of baseball cards: Baseball Reference or Fangraphs? It's Baseball Reference.
  24. mvp 78
    I wouldn't have him be a setup guy though. I'd rather him be the long reliever/spot starter guy than an inning here or there.
  25. mvp 78
    To me, Clay needs to be eased back into longer outings. 87 pitches is actually more than I would have expected him to go. I think Farrell has done a good job managing Buchholz this year.
