  1. C'mon, a 5/$125M contract isn't that bad. If that's all we need to do to get TS posters to buy tickets, it must be done! Who cares about the future? We need a year in/year out 88-90 win team that can't make the playoffs. At least they'll be competitive, but not so good as to prevent 12 months of bitchiness!
  2. BC's comments seem to say that he wouldn't be trading Lester. Could there be a chance they don't pick up a SP? Yup. Or they may get a AAAA starter like last year.
  3. Toronto asked for Bailey. He wasn't offered by the Sox.
  4. My point is that Paps was not irreplaceable. They just didn't find the right replacement. Paps is basically a 3 out reliever. Anything else and it's too much for him.
  5. He's also 40 and doesn't need excuses when he pitches over an inning.
  6. He had two appearances over one inning that September (four all year). How is he worth that contract if he can only get you three outs. Mo laughs at that...
  7. What Dojji said. The thing is, you can't just ignore two months of the season like they're meaningless.
  8. Will Wilson bring the Machine?
  9. iortiz said that people kept babying some overpaid busts. I asked for examples. He couldn't give any and has evaded the question. If you post something, at least attempt to back up what you wrote. It's not my fault that he made a statement that wasn't relevent to Paps leaving. Is this a Paps thread or a trade the bullpen thread? Clearly there are multiple comversations going on. If iortiz didn't want to talk about overpaid busts that people coddle, he shouldn't have brought it up.
  10. This was the question I wanted answered. If you can't or would just rather continue your circle jerk, it's fine by me. :dunno:
  11. This response didn't answer my question. If you're unable to answer my question because it's more involved than just agreeing with A700, I understand.
  12. Jose Valverde 2011 says hello. Saves are useless. Being up by three and getting three outs with no inherited runners isn't all that amazing.
  13. Still can't answer this, iortiz?
  14. Saves are the sign of being on a winning team. It's a fairly useless stat.
  15. No, which players were overpaid busts that people coddled?
  16. Would help to bring TS spelling to an all new low.
  17. Ludwick/McClouth/Victorino... Feel the excitement!
  18. I think Farrell likes Aceves, so they'll probably try to make it work out.
  19. I said the bullpen would be "ok." I didn't say it would be great. I think Breslow and Morales are also decent in late innings. I'd fill in the other 2 spots with Wilson and Delarosa.
  20. Aceves won't be closing in 2013. The bullpen will be ok whether or not Bard comes back.
  21. They'll non-tender Atchison (12 injury), Hill (always injured), and Sweeney (injured, no pop). They will bring Aceves back.
  22. They aren't getting jack s*** for those bullpen arms.
