    Kalish got injured in AAA!!!!

    How would you know since you didn't read it?

    Per yesterday's JBJ conversation: http://fullcount.weei.com/sports/boston/baseball/red-sox/2013/03/14/everything-you-need-to-know-when-trying-to-figure-out-if-jackie-bradley-jr-is-going-to-make-the-red-sox/

    From 07 - 10 JD: 131 games per year Stephen: 147 games per year (missed part of next two years due to a broken ankle in July 2011) Stephen is a fulltime player. Stop with the JD comparisons.

    @PeteAbe: #RedSox talking internally about Brennan Boesch. Trying to determine if he is a bench upgrade.
  6. mvp 78
    If JBJ gets sent to Pawtucket and injures himself, I don't want anyone complaining how the FO is at fault for not bringing him to Boston (aka the ongoing Kalish argument with certain posters). Anyway, the Sox should just bring him up. If the risk is that he'll earn a big contract someday, I don't care because the Sox are a "have" rather than a "have not."

    If later is 2019 and I'll have enough money to buy numerous boxes then, give me the cone now...

    They were both called up on 4/27 last year. Is that the date they can be called up this year?
  9. mvp 78
    I'd send Iggy to Pawtucket (since we have Drew). If he's hitting .300 in Pawtucket in May, I'd move Drew. Until Iggy can actually hit (not just take good rips), he needs more time in Pawtucket. He's only 22, right? He still has lots of room to mature.

    Carp hadn't looked much better. Overbay isn't a full time player anymore. Just think he could provide a solid veteran presence to start the season till Papi comes back.
  11. mvp 78
    Just remember, it's only ST (unless the guy is performing poorly, apparently).
  12. mvp 78
    I'm not going to belabor the point as both you and I are on the same page as to what his ceiling is. Just hope he figures it out this year and can have a realistic chance of being in the rotation in April 2014 along with Webster.
  13. mvp 78
    Just think his upside is higher than an old Overbay.
  14. mvp 78
    And yet YOU keep using Farrell demoting him as an excuse for his performance. Look, I know you projected him as the 4th starter this year, but maybe he's just not ready and needs more time? It's not a big deal if he's not ready.
  15. mvp 78
    I'd go: Overbay, Carp, then Gomez as a last resort. Can Carp be sent to AAA without being put through waivers?
  16. mvp 78
    But you keep bringing it up as if it were a factor. It's one thing to mention it offhandedly, it's another to bring it up multiple times.
  17. mvp 78
    "After Farrell made those comments, De La Rosa plunged. Not saying it's what caused his plunge, I'm just saying that it's an interesting order of events." No, that is completely what you're saying...
  18. mvp 78
    FIFY
  19. mvp 78
    In the end though, outside sources like Keith Law think Webster and Rubby are the 2 best arms in the Sox minor leagues. Clearly, these guys weren't just filler or the result of a hype machine.
  20. mvp 78
    Not nearly as well as the Yanks though.
  21. mvp 78
    The Dodgers thought very highly of Rubby, didn't want to include him in numerous deals at the deadline and believed he was a future big league starter. http://articles.latimes.com/2011/may/24/sports/la-sp-0525-dodgers-fyi-20110525
  22. mvp 78
    Webster and Rubby have been top 100 prospects. Sands was more of the filler type (fringe prospect).

    He was ok. Would get infatuated with certain guys (Lugo, Salty). At the end of the day, he just couldn't say no to LL. Rather than building up a winner, he built a team of big names.
  24. mvp 78
    They gave up the prospects for AGon, the player they valued the most (big name, Mexican heritage, from SoCal).
  25. mvp 78
    If he can return to form, it'd be such a big help to this team. "If" he and Buchholz could pitch to their potential and the others don't fall apart, this team could indeed play meaningful games in September.
