JBJ stinks

You lie! Pedey is greatest ever! Pedey is NOT overrated! Pedey is a dirt dog. Pedey is greatest pitching coach of all time!

What 8-9 combo is dynamic?
-
This shift talk is embarrassing.
-
They have a large impact on my enjoyment of it. Isn't that what we're talking about? A robot ump would have no impact on the game other than a consistent strike zone.

Price v Tillman
-
I think you mean the "Ameeker Strike Zone."

You're not wrong. "Boston had multiple scouts at both of Peavy's recent starts, and while there was some sentiment that Peavy was not throwing as well as he did in 2012, when he struck out 194 batters in 219 innings while posting a 3.37 ERA, the consensus was that Peavy represented a major upgrade for a rotation that is uncertain as to when undefeated ace Clay Buchholz, who has been on the DL with shoulder bursitis since June 8, will return." http://espn.go.com/boston/mlb/story/_/id/9523880/jake-peavy-boston-red-sox-3-team-deal-involving-chicago-white-sox-detroit-tigers

Have you ever met any Red Sox players in person?
mvp 78 replied to StephenCurry30's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
I've met Mo Vaughn a couple of times. Was always great with kids. I was snubbed by that Nomar goober once outside of an Italian restaurant in Manhattan Beach. My wife played in a softball game with Fred Lynn. She said he seemed very nice and down to earth. -
@bbtn James Shields has allowed 6 runs through 2 IP tonight. Overall, he's allowed 13 runs in 4 IP for the White Sox.
-
Has Wally even tried to wave this year? Lazy. Riding out his contract.
-
:( :(
-
My foresight said not to pick him up. I was correct.
-
Not funny. It's utterly depressing.
-
Stop with the Fangraphs trutherism. He's a negative WAR player right now.
-
Since you like quirks, will you help me tear down the moster seats and reinstall the net? Max can help me reinstall the troughs in the mens' room.
-
Oh, but they've tried to defend it.
-
Making sure that you follow the unwritten rules as well.
-
You could also just say that Buchholz has only pitched over 115 innings 3 times in the MLB. Yuck. Why do I care about MiLB starts?
-
They were trying to read the tea leaves and assume that signing Porcello ahead of time would save money in the long run. They only did this since they screwed the pooch with the Lester negotiations. Not a good look, imo. I'm just filled with such sadness because I know in my heart of hearts that they are going to pick up Buchholz's option again...
-
I agree. The same can be said for not needing to pick up Buchholz's option. There were a bunch of other guys available and it is quite evident that the Sox need new blood in this rotation.
-
I agree that it's 4th slot in the rotation caliber. I agree that we didn't need to lock him up before last season. I was just stating that he's the 2nd best guy in the rotation this year and that he has a chance to earn the contract.
-
Porcello's ERA is down to 3.81 and his WHIP is 1.08. He's the second best pitcher on the team right now. If he can pitch like this for the next few years, his contract will be well worth it.
-
This point is lacking validity since the team lost. Opinions regarding the Red Sox and MLB are ONLY valid if your team has won its previous game.
-
His numbers are skewed because of the last two weeks where he's hitting 137/200/196. He's pulled out of slumps before and this isn't really unexpected. I like Shaw, but don't see him as an irreplaceable guy. To me, he's a spot holder until one of the younger IFers is ready. A good comp for him would be Brian Daubach.
