send Iglesias and Bard they have a SS who can be transferred to 3b easily. i would be all for that trade. we have Xander in our farm system too. i think we will be fine without Iggy
he doesnt have the mental attitude and toughness for a starter, he is good for 1 innings period. 3 outs is all i care from him and he was dominant. and he doesnt have to overthink the situation.. and was much better at it..
amen to that, i knew Salty had the capability to hit.. he just needed to bring it out.. wish he can continue tearing it apart and be the Papi of 2004.. clutch
how abt Bard for Garza trade.. Theo might have a man crush on Bard and they do need a closer... i somehow have started to feel Bard is just a schmuck and him dictating what he needs.. to get paid big dollars at the end of his tenure with redsox is freaking ridiculous.
yep i agree to your assessment, but i still dont get how he can loose it in some starts and has full control in others. it baffles me that he himself is causing his own demise
I think the experiment of Bard starting needs to end soon or we end up loosing some games we shouldnt be loosing. I do agree that he has yet to give a bunch of HRs in 1 game yet he himself is causing his own demise walking guys left and right. that is just not a starting pitcher period.
in some of the starts it felt like he belonged but in others it felt like how is he a Starting pitcher for crying out loud.
his 1 inning stint in Minnesota was what he is good at doing. i have yet to feel comfortable when Bard takes the mound starting an inning. its even worse then Dicek and i cringed every time he nibbled. but with Bard there is no nibbling when he has no control.. he is just all over the place. cant have that kind of SP. if he doesn't like the 8-9 inning role give him 6-7 innings but he needs to go back to the bullpen.
