    the acquisition of an Ace.
  2. Slasher9
    i dont disagree with you. like i said in my post...someone needed to say it.
  3. Slasher9
    yes, that Cueto. he is an Ace.
  4. Slasher9
    i already mea culpa'd this like 8 posts ago. gee, while your at it, go back to 2004 after game 3 where i said "looks like we gonna get swept".....
  5. Slasher9
    it's ok bruh. he just needs to "adjust". i mean, we should have all expected that our "ace" would need to have to "adjust" from being a flamethrower to a guy that has to "learn how to pitch" in the very first season of his 7 year contract. surely DD knew this and expected this. that's why he went out last offseason and signed another "ace" to be an ace this season while Price "adjusts". oh wait...he didn't???!!! btw - it's not the $31MM we are spending this season. it's the fact that i wanted Cueto who could have been had for $100MM less and doesnt seem to need to "adjust" in the first year of his 6 year contract. Price has no heart. he's not a winner. he chockes again and again and again in the post season. and now he chockes in the regular season too. he's a chocker (the BDC guys will get this). but it's ok, surely DD will just go out and get another "ace". or maybe just a bunch more #4 and #5 pitchers like most on this forum think will suffice.......

    apologies HFX. i was thinking of his 2014 salary. so not much of a bargain. but still was last year of his previous contract and not close to the $31MM.... but i retract my statement that it was a "bargain".
  7. Slasher9
    im sorry FJ. when you sign an "ace" to the highest pitcher contract at a length of 7 years. mediocre in the first year of said contract = f***ING DISASTER he has had tons of excuses and free passes on this forum. i know. i'm the only one that had been calling him out since April. and people were and have been cursing at me for months. BABIP. BABIP can suck it. what other big name pitcher did we even sign? lackey? that's like 1 big name FA "ace" pitcher signed every 7 years. kind of a sss, no????
  8. Slasher9
    is cursing in caps against the TOS? or are you just trying to make yourself taller by trying to chop my head off?
  9. Slasher9
    not for the $8MM salary we paid him. he was a bargain.
  10. Slasher9
    Porcello - is pitching like a solid 2/3. exactly what many of us expected from him when we traded for and then signed him to the extension. no complaints.
  11. Slasher9
    S. Wright - he is now pitching like the #6 starter that we thought we were getting with him. no complaints as we should never have expected him to be our sub 3 ERA Ace pitcher.
  12. Slasher9
    (this is not in response to SnC as i know his post is sarc). OMG. for real. we are OK with the Red Sox giving a 7 year contract at $31MM per to a guy that needs to "transition" his first season of said contract??? this is a (and this is the first time i will actually type a curse on this website) f***ING disaster. let's all just keep making excuses for him. f*** PRICE.
  13. Slasher9
    Lol. Price as a stopper. Funny.
  14. Slasher9
    Try and unload price, Kimbrel, hanram. Someone needed to say it....
  15. Slasher9
    Farrell or papa smurf need to get got
  16. Slasher9
    middle - middle. aka "broadway"....
  17. Slasher9
    sometimes you just have to "change" for change sake.....
  18. Slasher9
    should have been caught?
  19. Slasher9
    JBj has definitely been "pull happy" the past month or so.....
  20. Slasher9
    We are staring at yet another ugly loss at home....
  21. Slasher9
    in my scenario i absolutely 100% trade the 2 top tier prospects for a guaranteed parade. in 1919 after winning 5 of the first 16 WS ever played someone probably would have said "pass" on the guarantee.
  22. Slasher9
    see above post i just made in response to FJ. as for competing...remember we arent giving up any of the B's.
  23. Slasher9
    for arguments sake lets say it's King Felix. the trade for him is the only reason we make the postseason. he dominates in the postseason and in Game 7 of the WS he pitches a CG shutout and we win 1-0 (on a Papi HR of course). but during the offseason he blows out an elbow and never throws another pitch. would you do it?
  24. Slasher9
    pythagorean has them 53-45 so they are +5 games on the lucky side. Boston is -1 game of theirs (56-41) Toronto is -2 (58-42) NYY as always is on the lucky side +4 (47-52)
  25. Slasher9
    if trading Moncada + Beni for a SP right now resulted in a WS victory this season - would you do it?
