2012 Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread
iortiz replied to yeszir's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
Call me crazy but At this point and after watching Doubront this ST, I feel more comfortable with him than with Oswalt. On the other hand nobody has earned the 5th spot, but as some said, Aceves could eat a lot of innings in the BP and hopefully somehow Bard at least give us a 4.5 ERA and 140+ IP. There's no more gentlemen, cross your fingers, and let's support our team. Let's go Red Sox. -
2012 Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread

I thought that ST was going to be thermometer in order to give the 4-5 spots in our case since we do not have "natural/proved/solid" SPs at 4-5. If ST is not the go/no-go, i want to know what will be the criteria in order to give the spots... -
which one is your team user?

Wow 2 BUSD? It's crazy. According to Forbes Manchester United is the most valuable team in sports; 1.8 BUSD. 1. Man UTD. 1.8 BUSD 2. Dallas Cowboys 1.6 BUSD 3. My Washington Redskins 1.5 BUSD 4. New England Pats 1.32 5. The damn Yankees 1.3 BUSD 6. Real Madrid 1.29 MUSD 7. Arsenal 1.2 BUSD 8. New York Giants 1.18 MUSD 9. New York Jets 1.17 MUSD 10. Houston Texans 1.17 MUSD No NBA team in the top ten and Barcelona is not there either, interesting. -
yeah! I heard some jokes about that too. He has lost some points (this/last season) because the Sauber engineering team has made several technical mistakes with the car. Give him a better car/team and he will surprise everybody in F1, regardless Carlos Slim is sponsoring him.
-
Well, I meant the solid and strong Buch we have seen at some points in the past. He has the potential to be a #1 starter IMO. Sure, I'm concerned about his health but he is young and If he stays healthy, do not be surpriesed; he could give us an ERA around 3.0. and 180+ IP.
-
"Checo" Perez was great. I thought he could win the race in the end, maybe next time. This kid has a lot of potential IMO.
-
Good for you Pal.
-
Beckett has an ERA below 1. Sure, this is only ST but it is a good sign that he is at least healthy and compromised with the team and who knows... He could end with an ERA below 3 next season. I would have preferred Beckett in the opening day, in the end he was our best pitcher last season beyond his attitude. Seems like Beckett and Lester will be strong and very solid. Hopefully Buch be the Buch we all know and our top 3 stay healthy.
-
This is why maybe some fans and probably even Henry/Cherington are pissed off, mostly when characters like D-K, Lackey, Jenks and Crawford are between cottons/underperform and at the same time we have a huge question mark in our pitching these days.
-
R/RBI/SB/OBP McCutchen 87/89/23/364 Drew Stubbs 92/44/40/321 Joyce 69/75/13/347 Just saying.
-
Well, if this is true, I'm with BV given the situation. After watching Bard this ST, He doesn't "deserve" the 4th spot. Doubront does. At very best he could compete for the 5th, but I prefer him as the setup guy where he is arguably the best in the game. I'd like to see Lavarnway sharing the C and DH position in a backup role. My guess is that Youk will not play more than 120 games at 3B, so....Aviles will likely help him with the load and Punto/Iggy could help at SS. So... I'm agree with V if you ask me.
-
Well, i guess, Carl Crawford could be in that category if he doesn't bounce back.
-
I could give you Drew Stubbs and Matt Joyce if you are interested.
-
... at very best. I want to see this in an optimistic way, but I do not find out how. Hopefully FO's decisions do not tax us this season at pitching again.

I do not know where should I access. SFoC, could u send me a link?

2012 Red Sox Spring Training Game Thread
iortiz replied to yeszir's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
Well, 6IP, 5ER. I'm not sure whether he deserves it or we simply do not have another option at this point ( I think #2); either way, the pitching coaches have to help him a lot with his control and improve his repertory. -
Tic tac, tic tac...
-
Thanks SFoC... Few hours before the draft. See you there guys.
-
Doubront has the most IPs (16) thus far this ST and a 2.7 ERA. Maybe he and why not Cook/Padilla could take the 4th and 5th spots. I'm not sure about Bard in the rotation anymore. As I said, at least be strong in 1 department: @ BP, sending Bard and why not Aceves too to BP. Our offense and this kind of BP (with Aceves, Bard, Melancon, Bailey, Miller, Albers, Morales) could help Doubront, Cook, Padilla if they s*** the bed early in the game.
-
7 MUSD? Wow! Why I'm not surprised... This guy is unbelievable. Release him.
-
Bailey hasn't impressed me that much either, so... Let Bard and Bailey compete for the closer position for a couple of months. The winner should be the closer.
-
@ a700... Campadre, what is the name of your team?
-
I didn't make the right question. For ex. Whose is J21 team?
-
Can't wait. Which team belongs to each talksox participant? Good luck to everyone. SFoC, during next week I transfer my cover. Again, Thanks for the opportunity.
