  1. If the defense is better, they could have 8 or 9 more wins!
  2. But what if Lester got cancer again? You ever think about that?
  3. One of them will be promoted to AAA before the ASB.
  4. YOTN was cool. I just chatted with him for an inning or so. I was with a friend and he was with his family. I'm all talk. I lived two towns over from Spud and never hung out with him.
  5. For Foulke, it even goes back to CHW where they had him throw over 100 IP one year all in relief. He was a workhorse out of the pen for a long time. It was just a matter of time. He was good in the World Series. I don't think anyone can point to a dropoff or an injury at the time.
  6. Porcello didn't have the strain that Eovaldi did. ERod had less of a strain than the others simply because of ineffectiveness. Price had a fairly normal starter's workload except for facing 3 batters in Game 3 of the WS. Sale only threw 15 innings the whole postseason.
  7. I think it's safe to pitch those innings on rare occasions like the playoffs, but the Sox were leaning way too heavily on him and killed his career. BRef doesn't have pitch counts from back then, but he was often pitching on 4 straight days, both sides of double headers and really running him ragged all throughout the regular season for some s***** Sox teams.
  8. That's all I'm saying. If 2018 wasn't a career ender for Nasty Nate, I don't buy the 04 killed Foulke issue. I think he was trending that way from overuse for a long time.
  9. Yeah, at Fenway in 17 or 18.
  10. I can rip the soul out of a "Florida Friendly plant" and not even damage the irrigation or cable lines underneath (most times), but I'm only built for chokeslamming small children into the deep end of my pool. What's the point in becoming the Iron Fist when all of your neighbors have AR15's?
  11. If Henry continues to piss away money on people he doesn't want to listen to, he's dumber than I gave him credit for.
  12. When men were men right?
  13. Sox are treading water until the prospects show up. That was obvious when that's all that was showcased at Winter Weekend. We're in a holding pattern with this franchise. I'll be watching the POR team more than the BOS team in the early part of the season if that's truly what matters long term.
  14. I don't need him to run the Sox, I need him to hear what Crag needs and either let Crag go for it or jam it up Henry's flagpole until he says yes.
  15. TalkSoxAnon.
  16. This year's Sox don't have to worry about putting them in playoff situations, so we're good.
  17. Nathan Eovaldi 2018: HOU Game 3/5 - 111 pitches (3 days) LAD Games 1/2/3 - 126 pitches (4 days) Eovaldi is not the healthiest pitcher in the world and he was able to do the above in one postseason.
  18. He was 31. His arm was nearing the expiration date. Derek Lowe threw 117 pitches over 3 days the prior postseason vs OAK.
  19. Make sure to drive around with a plate from the Northeast and ask "where's the good pizza?" The locals will love it. It's rained all winter down here. Don't expect much sun.
  20. Off season regiment of driving to and from Burger King.
  21. He threw 100 pitches over 3 days! No wonder they almost lost Game 1 of the World Series 4 days later! He had a 1.875 WHIP in his is blown win (kill the win). Then Tito (petty tyrant, basically Pol Pot) forced him to pitch the next 3 games, 2 of which weren't save situations!!!
  22. He pitched 5 innings in a 3 day stretch! Do you know what that does to the person's molecular structure? It basically turns their shoulder and elbow into a black hole made out of paper maché.
  23. Yeah, but my concern is that the initial press releases and discussion points from FSG all mentioned him working with all the FSG holdings. I just want him working with the Sox. I don't want Theo wasting time on the Penguins.
