Hellickson had elbow surgery last week. As we often ask when this happens with a Sox player, why didn't he have it right after the season?
-
According to MLBTR (Jim Bowden) the Red Sox have made a 2 year offer to Drew.
-
I don't think the Yankees are quite done with their upgrades. They've come too far with the spending not to be willing to spend some more.
-
Spudboy's posts are always worth reading.

Pitch counts are here to stay, folks. If you think managers are going to start leaving guys in for 140 pitches, think again. Stats show that when a pitcher is left in too long in a start, he usually struggles his next few starts at the very least. Dice-K's overwork in the WBC by the Japanese team is probably what cost him his career.
-
Yeah, his work behind the dish thus far suggests his future, if any, should be at 1B or DH. On the bright side, he does seem to have the potential with the stick to have an MLB career.
-
Just read that Lavarnway is going to get some work at first base this spring.
-
Personally I have far too little information to render an opinion. I assume that also applies to others here.
-
I don't have much opinion on him, except he was one of the few guys I liked watching in the abysmal 2005 World Series.
-
LOL that is funny. zac, can I please see your truck day pic again, the one with Cherington, and Pedroia on the sled...that one kills me.
-
Fighting on an anonymous internet forum has to be the most useless practice ever. Yeah, you're really gonna get the best of somebody by putting unkind words on their computer screen.
-
OK zac WTF are RSPs? I assume you have a pic ready to go.
-
Making A-Rod the face of the franchise till age 42 didn't work out so good.
-
Yeah, my bad.
-
I felt so bad for Marty Barrett - a journeyman guy who played out of his mind that postseason and would have been World Series MVP and Red Sox hero.

Baseball posts please.

Marahiro Tanaka And Sox Starting Rotation.

Sabathia might have a bounceback season, too. -

The Yankees bullpen looks a bit thin at the moment. But to borrow a page from Fred's book, I don't think the dirty conniving bastards are done yet. Who knows, maybe our old pal Papelbon is on their radar, among others. -
Getting back to MVP's point, taken to its extreme this might mean that selling Babe to the Yanks was 'good for the rivalry'. Plus all those other players they took from us in that time frame. They raped us, basically. That created a type of drama too, in the form of years of untold anguish for Sox fans and Dan Shaughnessy getting rich.
-
Red Sox-Yankees rivalry/buzz is at its peak when the two teams are duking it out for a postseason spot or meeting in the postseason.
-
Well, this is kind of a nebulous issue IMO, but if we focus on the one specific scenario of Drew signing with the Yankees, I think that might tend to affect Sox and Yankee fans/media a lot more than it would affect general baseball fans/media. With a big name like Ortiz it's a different story. Was Damon going to the Yankees good for the rivalry/buzz...if so, in a big way? I don't think it had that big of an impact on baseball in general.
-
Maybe. You could also say that if Ortiz goes to the Yankees in 2015 it would provide more drama too. Or you could say it would make you sick and angry.
-
I have to say the one thing that will sour this offseason for me is if the Yanks sign Drew.
-
What I'm suggesting is that there are a lot of X factors in play. For the Yankees we can start with Sabathia and Tanaka. Pretty hard to predict. But if those two have strong seasons, etc. etc.
-
The Yankees have a lot of question marks, but so did we going into last season. Everything went right for us. I'm not writing off the Yankees this year. If Sabathia comes back, if Pineda comes back, if they sign Drew etc....
