    We have had some good breaks, which the Sox were able to capitalize on. I've said before, the division is so tight that the division winner could very well be the team that gets the most favorable breaks. You take those wins any way you can.

    And the deal is only for one year. If it were a multi-year deal, that would be another story. Someone like Masterson is worth the risk for one year. If he bombs, his contract is not going to handcuff the Sox in any way.

    Hugs are awesome. Back massages are just as awesome. Maybe I'm just a touchy feely type of person.

    The problem with Maddon is that he takes it to the extreme. He is trying to convince people that he is smarter than he is. He needs to realize that the game is not about him and that he is not the one that the fans come to see.

    This is a very good read on why sabermetricians should be confronting the sabermetric skeptics, rather than just letting them believe what they've always believed. Those with more traditional views are probably not going to like it, but IMO, this guy is spot on. This is my goal in life - to stop the misinformation!

    Fortunately, it shouldn't be too hard to find some BP arms if we need them.

    It's hard to watch games like today's and last night's, even though we won that one. But like you said, what we have should be good enough to get us to the trade deadline, when we'll have a better feel for what our needs are and what is available. It is definitely too early to panic.
  8. Kimmi
    Nah. The FO would screw those picks up too. Losers!
  9. Kimmi
    LOL Dutchy?
  10. Kimmi
    Good point. We're doomed.

    That's the funny thing. For all the "panic" about our starting pitching, we've won each of our series so far, which BTW, I was reading is the first time we've won our first 3 series since 1952.

    I was thinking the same thing. They looked pretty good first time through the rotation. This time, not so much. It's hard to know what to think about them, but it's far too early to draw any conclusions one way or the other.

    Vazquez clone.

    LOL You sir, are a troublemaker.

    Who needs an ace?

    Way to go Hanigan!

    The Sox have had all kinds of baserunners.
  18. Kimmi
    Woohoo! Keep it going guys!
  19. Kimmi
    LOL Spud

    Thank you Werth, for swinging at the 3-0 pitch.
  21. Kimmi
    Just what the doctor ordered.

    Justin needs a quick, shut down inning.
  23. Kimmi
    Time to buy the jersey!

    I think that's the gist of it right there, and the reason why many people don't understand the relative unimportance of stolen bases. As I've posted before, in the season where Henderson stole 130 bases (along with 42 times being caught), he was worth a grand total of 1.6 base stealing runs to his team over the course of the season. Some of those stolen bases were probably huge, but some of those caught stealings probably were just as huge. The most precious commodity in baseball is still the out.
  25. Kimmi
    Yup, pitch count is up early.
