  1. Who replaces him in the rotation when he is banished to Pawtucket after today?
  2. They'd probably be 5-9.
  3. I have UNC as my super early NCAA winner next year.
  4. He's probably better than Dice-K, but I don't think he's going to be that good at 39 pitching in the AL East.
  5. The real question is how much damage do those two pitchers are they going to do to our final win total. Bill James projected Dice-K at 173.0 IP with a 3.85 ERA added. Lackey is 227.0 IP with a 3.89 ERA added. I think the two are obviously going to pitch better, but how much better are they? Dice-K has induced four swing and misses this year, and is getting absolutely torched by lefties. Lackey is going to be the Red Sox's AJ Burnett. He looks old, his stuff has declined, and now he can't throw strikes. Bill James has these two for a projected WAR of 6.5. I don't see league average pitchers in these two, they are probably good bets to finish with 5+ ERA's. With the rest of the team performing at his projected standards, they are picked to finish with 95 wins. Where are they going to make up those up? This team will finish south of 90 wins.
  6. I could see how someone could react negatively, or find that annoying when 40,000 people boo you at once. That probably doesn't feel good. Also, I don't think the fans of Sun Belt baseball, or minor league baseball are prone to booing players of those leagues. 40,000 drunk Chicagoans? Maybe more so.
  7. Rose will never get in, neither will Joe Jackson.
  8. I wouldn't. I didn't play in any of the games, and I don't know any of the players personally. Why would I let something like some idiot bragging about an accomplishment, in which he did absolutely nothing to contribute, bother me?
  9. Hopefully, with Ted Leonsis in charge they will avoid giving big contracts to fading veteran talent. Who do you think would be a good pick for the Wizards? I'm hoping they can add someone like Harrison Barnes at #4, and maybe Kenneth Faried with the second 1st.
  10. I don't get why people are upset over something they have no control over. Why would you be pissed off that a group of individuals lost to another group of individuals that you have never met, or didn't actually participate in?
  11. Never understood how people can brag or get upset about something they played absolutely no part in.
  12. Saltalamacchia's name can be translated, albeit very liberally, into " he skips the spot," in Italian. I think this is a good description about his value brought to the lineup.
  13. I think the Red Sox could have won the 2007 World Series without Curt Schilling. Maybe not 2004, but they were much better in 2007.
  14. Sounded nice off the bat.
  15. Maybe they should try to work the count.
  16. Top 6th. Nice pick by LaPorta.
  17. Either one. He'll be back in AAA by July.
  18. Red Sox are going to need to add a catcher by the deadline.
  19. Does anybody have MLB.TV? The picture looks really good this year.
