  1. No they're not. Not only because he'd be a 4th starter, but because most of those innings would be pitched by the bullpen. If we'd gotten 175 IP out of out #3 last year, we're in the playoffs. You're spinning it.
  2. That's another fair point. But Jackson is kinda moving from the NL to the AL himself.
  3. Then you're probably not going to get him, which is my point. There's the possibility of the Cubs moving Soriano for a better deal. If i'm Theo, i don't make any deal with Soriano where i have to give up money AND a prospect, even if it's a C-type.
  4. That is a very fair point. That's why i put the "If healthy" condition in my post. If he isn't absolutely healthy, please stay away.
  5. Well i think effectiveness has its value. If Oswalt is going to give the team a better chance to win than Jackson every time out, then those 30 innings look less important.
  6. Even though Jackson has thrown more IP, every other possible measure favors Oswalt, including ERA+, which controls for league. I would be content with either, but if healthy, give me Oswalt. Let's not pretend like Jackson is a better "pitcher" than Oswalt.
  7. I said over 200 innings. It's not a knock on him, but it's not like he's thrown 200+ every year since he's been in the league. No need for bunching of the panties people.
  8. For all the talk about Jackson being a "200 ip machine" he has thrown more than 200 IP exactly twice.
  9. Yankee fans might not like hearing it, but Texas is definitely the best team in the AL.
  10. Remember how much both the rotation AND BP would be strengthened. Also, RF is not really a problem. A Kalish/Ross RF platoon should be very much above-average.
  11. If they sign both and send Aceves and Bard to the BP, the Red Sox become the best team in the AL, no question. One can dream, right?
  12. That's not how negotiations work. We don't know the context of all of this stuff.
  13. I disagree. When healthy, Oswalt is massively superior to Jackson.
  14. My thoughts exactly.
  15. Goddamn it, i've been discovered.
  16. SIGN SOMEONE, ANYONE! EVEN MARK HENDRICKSON!
  17. Sign sign sign sign sign sign sign.
  18. This is incorrect. You need to stay under the LT threshold two consecutive years.
