    Fair enough. You are entitled to hold that opinion. I don't share it. I think they all count, for all pitchers. Its also a reasonable arguement to argue that his WHIP or ERA+ has value too. I do not think he is an ace at all...more like a #2-3 SP.
  2. FredLynn
    The injury excuse is nonsense. All teams have injuries. It is what it is. We are as good as our record says we are. Period.
  3. FredLynn
    Ninth. Same denominator. I think his ERA takes precidence. And Salty ties the game...FINALLY A RUN!
  4. FredLynn
    They all count. He is a mediocre SP on a mediocre team with terrible pitching.
  5. FredLynn
    Mowed down by a bunch of also-ran Jays pitchers. Not a pretty sight.
  6. FredLynn
    Thats not saying much. He ranks 26th of 58 among AL pitcher with at least 60 IP. Thats middle of the pack...for our supposed ace. He is part of the problem. If he were our #3 SP he would be fine.

    Mediocre teams play mediocre baseball. They have some winning streaks and some losing streaks, always, by definition, ending up near .500. Sound familiar? This is a very mediocre team.
  8. FredLynn
    You mean second and third
  9. FredLynn
    Exactly. Stupid coaching.
  10. FredLynn
    More sloppy baseball
  11. FredLynn
    Appropriate for the situation.

    McDonald should NEVER play; we need Nava out there. Lillibridge should not be playing either.

    You have got to be kidding...no runs in five innings against Cy Laffey? Moribund.

    First, I have no idea if Bard is reparable or not. My own opinion, my LAYMAN'S opinion, is that he will never regain his former level of effectiveness. There are opinions, and then there are educated opinions. Fred has had extensive experience in managing real baseball players. I have not. Have you? Just as I would hope that you would value my experience as a doctor when I offer a medical opinion (not that its always right), I would hope that you would value Fred's opinion more than a layman's opinion because of HIS experience in the field. I know I do.

    You have more faith in our FO than I do. I don't think DiceK is going anywhere this season. As for Morales, he has had what-3 good starts? He does look good, but its a small sample size. It earns him a shot in the rotation, not a spot there. And if he fails after DiceK is gone we are down a SP (if you call DiceK a SP). Tough call.
  16. FredLynn
    No, its just that everyone would notice that you have no clothes.
  17. FredLynn
    In place of who? Who leaves if Morales pitches well? Do you think the FO has the guts to jettison DiceK? He would make a really crappy bullpen addition, what with the walks and the first inning jitters.
  18. FredLynn
    Morales turning out to be a stellar front line pitcher would be a nightmare for Jacko, eh?

    It won't matter. Upgrading our pitching staff is a multiyear task. The pitching has sucked for years. And we still have too many mediocre buffoons on the roster. Their contracts have to expire and then they have to be good at choosing replacements, something Cherington's predecessor was quite poor at doing. Getting one good pitcher is not going to significantly improve our team ERA.
  21. FredLynn
    Yeah, I watched them play a few weeks ago. Not completely over, obviously, but its gonna be tough. Hard to win games when you have to score 10 runs or more to do it.
  22. FredLynn
    You already know with reasonable certainty. Bautista's HR did it.
  23. FredLynn
    And certainly Red Sox fans don't want to hear that s*** on this board. Gloating, be it true or false.
  24. FredLynn
    More than a little for me.

    60% chance of rain during the day; 10% chance at night. Per weather.com. Hope Coco brings a good book waiting for the clouds to break.
