  1. When we have the mess we currently have in our 4/5 slots, we need to fix our 4/5 slots.
  2. Then I try to put Hanigan through waivers and see if he'll take the spot in Pawtucket, because I don't see him on this roster next year.
  3. 100% positive. I had the players fill out a survey monkey poll.
  4. It they had replacement level guys at the back end of the rotation, they'd probably be in first place right now...
  5. Red Sox starter's ERA is 4.79. Wright, Porcello and Price's ERAs are 2.18, 3.78 and 4.74, respectively. That means the other 2 guys pitching in that turn are utter dog s***. Every other guy who has taken the hill has an ERA above 5.00. Henry Owens has been the team's 4th best starter and they threw him in Pawtucket. Buchholz has been their 5th best starter and has a negative WAR! Clearly, there is an upgrade they can make for the last two roster spots.
  6. No, they are picking up Buchholz's option again this offseason. If the Sox finish the season strong, Farrell stays too.
  7. I'm more concerned about the Sox franchise long term than what happens this year. If they don't make the playoffs, it's not a big deal to me. I'd rather not mortgage the future for one final Ortiz year when we still have 3 rings in a back pockets from recent years.
  8. I think he just sucks at PR.
  9. But that doesn't mean you don't make other moves to be better the other 4 out of 5 games...
  10. Price is a better bet over the next few years than Buchholz. Buchholz is the easiest guy to replace since he's not expected to be a TOTR guy. Bringing him back was dumb. Signing Price was worth the risk. The results have been not great though. I'm not sold that Cueto or Shark would perform any better in Fenway though. They should have resigned Lester and we would not be having this convo in the first place.
  11. They goofed by bringing him back. Sox played better under Lovullo. Farrell doesn't seem to make the smartest decisions on or off the field. Lots of us were ready to dump Farrell, so this isn't entirely a reaction to the June swoon either.
  12. I think Leon and Hanigan are interchangeable. Either move Hanigan or send Leon back to Pawtucket. Vazquez should be up in Boston permanently.
  13. Yeah, maybe Farrell can stay...
  14. If the Sox really want to win now, they need to follow my Three Point Plan.
  15. 2 years from now, Price will still be a top level talent while Buchholz is out of baseball.
  16. Thanks John!
  17. A chloroform rag addressed to Tom Werner? Oh please, oh please, oh please...
  18. The Angels are up next! Everyone pick up their starters in fantasy!
  19. Golly gee then. I'm so glad about the Red Sox World Series rings from the 1910's! Unless you are a highlander, baseball history from before the age of 8 shouldn't matter to you. Thankfully, when I was growing up in the 80's, the Yankees sucked a big fat one too!
  20. Still more rings over the past 15 years.
  21. As a Red Sox fan, I'm going to really enjoy watching the Yankees compete for last place for the next 3 - 4 years.
  22. I could see Pomeranz, Straily and possibly Gray being made available. The only issue with Gray is that the A's would be selling low on him.
  23. Re: Price I know! WHY HASN'T PEDROIA DONE ANYTHING ABOUT THIS YET??? Needs more mound visits probably.
  24. Those guys aren't typically available at the trade deadline.
  25. Ah yes, the wonders of baseball! The strike zone is like a box of chocolates, you know...
