  1. lol..i know. just getting in early for the "i told you so's". listen, i get it. i expect him to pitch better than he did last night. and i really wont judge until 5 starts minimum. in reality, this trade cannot be judged until 4 years from now when we know what we got from Pom and we see what Espi is doing. hopefully he rebounds from this and dominates in his next start.
  2. so is this Pomeranz guy an upgrade over Clay? good thing he only cost us the best pitching prospect in our organization instead of a 1 year option.
  3. Santana is a proven cheater. No thank you
  4. What is everyone expecting from Pom tonight? 6+ with 3 earned would keep my yap shut.
  5. For me it comes down to zero tolerance. If you sign/ trade for / pay a single ped user that shows other players (and even worse kids) that there is huge monetary rewards for being a cheater and for taking shortcuts. It also prevents a kid who has trained the "right" way from getting on a big league roster because it is occupied by a cheater. JMO
  6. Agreed. It would def cause many a sox fan to have gnawed fingernails. It made more sense to try second half last year when we were already cooked than to try it now when we are in playoff contention. Right now picking up Ziegler may have been the best move by DD yet.....
  7. With you 100%. No way I want a ped guy on my team. Let him go play for the Yankees.....
  8. He has done nothing at the mlb level this season to disprove your statement. My hope was/is that he could be dynamic for 1 inning.
  9. Not at all. Blame Farrell!!!
  10. Understand completely. The thought for me was that he does indeed have electric stuff and if just being used for 1 inning maybe a couple MPH could be added to that mid 90's FB. Much of it was discussed middle of last season when he struggled as a SP and koji also was. Hotstove Thought it might be a better option than having him as a starter and we were coming of a season in which koji looked human and needed a lesser role. Once we traded for kimbrell it didn't make sense to have Kelly try.
  11. Looks like our relief pitching will have to adopt the patriots philosophy of "next man up"
  12. You didn't like the way he finished last season?
  13. Beni & mon should start packing. Another RP injury.... (Ok, hopefully DD doesn't trade one of them for RP but we are in trouble now)
  14. Many of us were looking for Kelly to be closer before the kimbrell acquisition....
  15. Time to trade for another RP. Or...... Clay or Kelly as closer?
  16. You know how you win a game when your offense only has 4 hits? Your SP acts like an ace and shuts out the other team.
  17. Robot umps now.
  18. Robot umps now!
  19. Maybe his postseason suck won't even matter. You really only need 3 starters. Wright Porcello Buch (pomeranz) (erod) Wonder how price is out of the pen????
  20. I don't believe any of the leaked stuff by the sox FO when it comes to a player they are trying to get gone. And they tried getting rid of the $20MM every year. Thankfully for us fans they didn't succeed until 2008.
  21. Manny never wanted to play anywhere but Boston until 2008. 2005 the sox held him out of the lineup because they were trying to trade him. When the deadline passed he ph and got the game winning knock.
  22. 88 lines about 44 women. Win
  23. There is no truth to this statement at all. Manny never wanted out of Boston until 2008 when boras told him he wanted out.
