  1. Ben's tits aren't really that bad, huh?
  2. I'd take the lower WHIP from 2011. If he didn't vomit on himself in September, he may have gotten CY consideration and the Sox would have been in the postseason. Frankly, the pitching has been mediocre for a while.
  3. Reading skills aren't some people's strongpoint around here.
  4. I like Marcum for his AL East experience. Haren could have good upside. Jackson probably wants a 3 year deal.
  5. But but but but the cutter!
  6. Just Hamilton would net them 74 wins probably. I'm just saying that all these 3-4 year contracts that people want signed (Ross/Napoli/Swisher) aren't putting the Sox over the top. Without a real pitching upgrade, these signings are useless.
  7. 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!
  8. 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.
  9. Toronto asked for Bailey. He wasn't offered by the Sox.
  10. 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.
  11. He's also 40 and doesn't need excuses when he pitches over an inning.
  12. 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...
  13. What Dojji said. The thing is, you can't just ignore two months of the season like they're meaningless.
  14. Will Wilson bring the Machine?
  15. 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.
  16. 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:
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. Still can't answer this, iortiz?
  20. Saves are the sign of being on a winning team. It's a fairly useless stat.
  21. No, which players were overpaid busts that people coddled?
  22. Would help to bring TS spelling to an all new low.
  23. Ludwick/McClouth/Victorino... Feel the excitement!
