    Dang. Ells hit that well.
  2. SoxFanForsyth
    Buchholz's change up looks absolutely filthy tonight.
  3. SoxFanForsyth
    Ohh. Now it makes sense.

    By the way, I bet Pedroia has a monster game, and likely a monster streak coming up.

    Why are people bitching about Ciriaco at DH? Would they rather have Punto, Sweeney, or Salty vs a LHP? At least Ciriaco can knock a couple infield hits and swipe a bag.

    When I was at the Sox/A's game, there was an absolutely hammered guy hanging over the LF wall (not the monster, the wall in foul territory) almost directly next to Coco Crisp, and he just constantly was screaming "COCOOOO!!!! COCOOOOO!!!!" It was hilarious. But I wish he was here now to get Coco's attention to make the new GT!

    If the Marlins are dying to get rid of HanRam, make a deal for him, I'm all for it. But not for Carl Crawford. If they want to sell low on him, fine. We'll buy low on HanRam, I don't mind. Send them Bryce Brentz and Garin Cecchini, see if they'll listen then. If they want pitching, send them Franklin Morales and Brentz. I don't know. Just make it happen.

    I think Gomez gets sent back to Pawtucket because Ciriaco doesn't have options. Also, I think Ross hits behind Gonzo after that 2 HR night last night, and another LHP on the bump. Not sure who would DH tonight, though, vs a LHP, because Nava is horrendous vs RHP.

    Doubront and Morales are both on innings limits. No need in burning their innings at the same time. When Doub's innings limit is met, you DL him and put Morales in the rotation.

    From my understanding, the Crawford deal would be a pretty huge salary dump. Which is likely why it won't get done. I think this was just a case of: Marlins: Hey, Ben, we're interested in Carl Crawford. What do you think? Ben: Ah, I don't think so. What did you guys have in mind, though? Marlins: Maybe Heath Bell + Hanley Ramirez for Crawford + $25mm? Ben: No, I don't think that makes sense for us. Thanks for the call, though. End of trade rumor.

    Just disgusting.

    Same s***.

    Pap just blew another save. Have fun with that contract, Philly. This is why closers are so overrated. I'm not saying everyone can close, but there is always someone on your team who can. You just have to find him, and you don't have to pay him 15mm a year. If I had to choose between Papelbon vs Aceves or Bailey and 13mm toward another player, give me Aceves or Bailey. All day.

    A bit more discounting of the Crawford trade. Good news. I don't think there is any question that with an effective, healthy Crawford at the top of the order with Ellsbury, this team has a ridiculous lineup
  18. SoxFanForsyth
    Unfortunately, the players we trade would have to be performing above their true talent level to sell high. This is 110% not the case. We'd be selling low on all players other than maybe Aviles? I'm not sure of anyone else who isn't underperforming.
  19. SoxFanForsyth
    Hey I'll be at the game too! Pavillion Box 5. Anyone? Anyone?
  20. SoxFanForsyth
    Ugh. The more I think about this, the more I think I would vomit if we gave Crawford to the Marlins for HanRam, who is on a severe slide, and Heath Bell, who is a product of Petco. Just keep Crawford. I also hardly think this is a sign that they are selling because in this rumored deal, they're swapping salaries, not dumping, and are getting MLB ready players who would help them compete in 2012. But I would put the chances of this deal happening lower than that of the Sox getting Hamels. And I put the deal for Hamels at around 0%.

    Olney also denounced the rumors first off, and Gammons is typically extremely accurate on his reports. He reported last May that Lackey would need TJS. He reported the disconnect between Theo and Tito. And everyone called ******** on these too.
  22. SoxFanForsyth
    Gammons just came on and completely denounced the Crawford Marlins idea. Said Rosenthal is his good friend, and that there's zero truth to the deal. Also said people have called about Crawford, but the Sox haven't called anyone about Crawford. Also said that he's hearing that the Red Sox will be one of the finalists on Garza. All good news IMO.
  23. SoxFanForsyth
    Yeah. And you're spending the same amount on Bell and HanRam. Give me Crawford over those 2.
  24. SoxFanForsyth
    If the Sox are going to make a move with the Marlins, go get Josh Johnson.
  25. SoxFanForsyth
    I hope not. Give me Crawford over Bell and HanRam all day.
