For Nava, I like Lava Nava.

I cant disagree with that he did look pretty bad in his first couple starts in the AL. But if you look at his stats of his last few starts they would suggest that Dempster was starting to get the feel of pitching in the AL.
-
Lol. I dont get why you guys think dempster is THAT bad. This is the same Ryan Dempster that was highly saught after at the trade deadline right?
-
You watch i Guarentee thats how the rotation is gonna shake out. I know dempster isnt a True #1 but hes the best we have right now. Everyone thinks im crazy for saying dempster will be at the top of the rotation but when it happens ill be here to tell everyone i told you so... Lol Plus with the rotation the way i have it its RH,LH,RH,LH,RH.

If Dempster is the opening day starter I dont think it sends the message " Climb on Dempsters back". To me that #1 starter has to be at the very least a guy who can Take the mound every fifth day and if your in a Loosing streak Be that guy that can get you a W when you need it most. Lester has shown when the pressure is on him that He just cant get it done, I think being the #2 kinda takes some of that stress off him and just lets him do his thing. You guys need to remeber that even with the straight bad year Lester had this year that Lester in previous seasons hasnt exactly coming screaming out of the gate he's always been that slow starter that really comes out punching in the second half of the year. I dont disagree with you guys that this teams Success or failure will soley hinge on how Lester and Buch do , I just feel like dempster Is the best choice for that opening day start.

How bout a friendly wager??? If dempster is the Opening Day starter Then you have sport a Yankees avatar for a week. If lester is the Opening day starter then i have to sport a Yankees avatar for a week. Deal?

I Agree. Even Salty's Offense at times is Dismall. Sometimes you wonder if he'll even make contact with the ball ever again. And on the flip side his defense is terrible, I dont think the horrible starting pitching was just to blame on the SPers. Salty in My view still has no idea how to call a decent game and The pitchers dont seem to trust him.
-
And they wouldnt Destroy lester???? I dont exactly remeber all the games he pitched against the Yankees last year but I know he didnt do good against them. I dont get why People have such a hard time Seeing Dempster as our #1(I know hes not a true #1) but hes the best we have RIGHT NOW. Dempster is that Crafty veteran you love to have on your team.
-
Wouldnt that be nice. I pretty much get the Same feeling as everyone here, The Redsox season Will either succeed or fail because of Lester and buch. Ive wanted to ask you guys something. Ive seen alot of people saying that Dempster will be a back of the rotation starter. But in my mind dont be surprised if he Is our opening day starter. The way i see our rotation shaping up is, 1.Dempster 2.Lester 3.Buch 4.Dubrount 5Lackey. Let me know what you guys think.
-
If Lackey tried to pull that Crap saying it was a "New injury" And wasnt related to the one the Sox where worried about before he came here and therefore the option Couldnt/Shouldnt be exercised, Then thats really Shady on Lackeys Part. With all the Crap and ******** he's Pulled while he's been here, He owes us that extra year at the Vet min. And if he refused and i where the sox front office i would make Lackeys life miserable Because the Douchebag deserves it.
-
Not to sound like a smart ass but i dont think the Red sox where worried about Lackeys Non Throwing Arm before he came here. i would guess that the problem the red sox Saw was relating to his throwing Arm/Elbow. I would also Guess that the TJ surgery Lackey had Falls under the Clause in his contract that You just mentioned. If lackey Can Atleast be a 4-5 ERA pitcher im sure alot of teams would find him attractive in a trade, Especially with that last year at the vet minimum.
-
Hopefully Lackey doesnt Become a 16 mil dollar paper weight. But with the last year of his contract being exercised because of His Shoulder problems. His contract doesnt look so bad And at some point we might even be able to move it if lackey is isnt a total disaster.
-
I see it as it Really all comes down to starting pitching. If the Starters can give you 5 to 6 innings on a regular basis then the Sox Will be contenders again this year. If not Its gonna be another long season.
