  1. Yeah, why can't we get players like that anymore?
  2. All except his posts about a certain second baseman.
  3. There seems to be an unwritten rule that any high-priced pitcher that comes to Boston has to be a disappointment their first season.
  4. I get the idea, I just don't think Buch would have added a whole lot to the package. My guess is that any teams we asked about good starters were asking Betts or Bogaerts.
  5. I'm talking about throwing Buchholz and his 13 million salary on top of the prospects. A rebuilding team would just want prospects, and a contender wouldn't trade a good pitcher.
  6. Farrell should have been able to use Kimbrel there. He was plenty rested, and he's our incredibly expensive, usually blows guys away 'relief ace', isn't he? Looks like they're going to have to print up some 'Kimbrel rules' for Farrell.
  7. It's fair to question Farrell, but if Kimbrel consistently turns into a total stiff in non-save situations that's one more significant problem for our pitching staff.
  8. Pretty hard to find a team that would match up in that kind of proposed trade.
  9. Kimmi, it's not really any different from constantly reiterating that the Buch option was a no-brainer even though you know there are a number of people that don't agree.
  10. The high DP number looks like a good old statistical aberration to me.
  11. But do we know that they gave up on Swihart or was the plan all along to move Vazquez up as soon as he looked ready?
  12. He's hit into an inordinate number of DP's for some reason, but most teams would love a 306/368/445 in the 2 spot.
  13. The Drew acquisition wouldn't have happened if WMB didn't get injured. It wasn't something they planned, but s*** happens.
  14. Seriously, name one single year that supports your second half swoon theory. Throw a fact out there instead of a bunch of vague generalizations.
  15. You won't find any years in which he caused a second half swoon.
  16. When it comes to pitchers the Sox don't seem to be able to diagnose jackshit.
  17. Which particular years did ya have in mind?
  18. Young players are still doing well this year. Our offense is carrying on like it did at the end of last year. It's one of the points in his favor.
  19. I'm surprised no one is making any connection between Buchholz's performance this year and possible residual medical issues. He's not an old man. He was pitching great before getting hurt last year. After his 'rehabilitation' he can't pitch for crap. He might be in the same type of condition Lackey was in before his TJ surgery. I have little faith in our medical staff.
  20. This comment makes no sense whatsoever.
  21. Holy crap, if Leon gets any hotter he'll spontaneously combust.
  22. The Texas catcher is the only guy in either lineup who doesn't have a hit today.
  23. Shuffle this lineup so we can get some damn offense going!
  24. Theoretically we could have. In reality the offers for Buchholz may have been lousy. What about his medical issues? As I said there were numerous comments about him looking like a TJ candidate because of the nature of his injury last year.
