  1. i dont think he has any value regardless. (unless he hits like 2012 AC and then gets brought up like i stated in my post). if that happens then we probably keep him for the 2016 Parade Run.......
  2. i believe if he makes it back on the MLB roster the Sox get hit with luxury tax on his salary. so unless he starts looking like the 2012 version of AC in AAA i dont think he will get called up.....
  3. yup. i think he has for awhile.
  4. all pitchers miss spots. and all pitchers throw bad pitches throughout a game. they dont always get destroyed. how many times have you seen a batter just miss a cookie or take a spinning breaking pitch because they were looking FB? that particular pitch wasnt a bad miss. it probably leaked an inch more than he wanted but it wasn't middle-middle. sometimes a batter guesses right. tip your cap.
  5. oh no. sounds like he is mentally fragile like clay?
  6. he gave up a total of 5 hits. 3 XBH. a double to leadoff the game - no runs scored. the 3 run HR. and a leadoff double in the 6th where again he didnt allow the runner to score. he had 8 swing and miss strikes and 11 looking. the 4 BB in 6 IP is too many and would like that number to be cut in half. 2 of the 4 batters that walked scored.
  7. I'm not saying your wrong but MLB calls it a Quality Start.
  8. GAME 44 - JE JBj: 1-3 / BB JE: 2-4 / RS / RBI Score: JBj: 25 JE: 13 Tie: 6
  9. GAME 43 - JBj JBj: 1-2 / RS / BB / 2IBB JE: 1-4 / RS / RBI / CS Score: JBj: 25 JE: 12 Tie: 6
  10. GAME 42 - JBj JBj: 1-2 / RS / RBI / 2BB JE: 0-4 / RS / BB / GIDP Score: JBj: 24 JE: 12 Tie: 6
  11. I agree with this 100%. we can put together a prospect package that does not include the 3 B's and get a TOTR starter. of course teams will ask but at the end of the day the quality and quantity of our MiLB prospects are enough to get it done and better than just about what any other team has to offer.
  12. my post had much to do with Clay's last start, not his cumulative numbers to this point. did you think he "sucked" in his last start?
  13. one thing i really like about the DIRECTV extra innings is that you can set the DVR to "season record" your team. i have it set to record every RS game. many times i dont start watching a 7pm start until 9 or so. FF the commercials and pitching changes i can almost catch up to realtime by the time the game ends. not sure if you have directv but if so, check out the "season record" option.
  14. i think there is a major philosophy flaw here. every base hit (whether it be a single, double, triple, HR) isn't on a "bad pitch". Most times the pitcher makes his pitch and the hitter does HIS job. the 3 run HR we seem to be perserverating on was a 2 seam FB on the inner half that started off the plate and came back. guy put a good swing on it and it wrapped the pole. tip your cap and move on. that's what clay did. had he given up multiple HR's and multiple crooked number innings then i would maybe see the point you are trying to force. but it is what it is.
  15. I like that setup you got!
  16. I'm wondering if some of the high post count people on this site actually watch the games or simply get their info from sportscenter or their local sports talk radio mouth....
  17. Was it a grand slam? No. He gave up 4 runs in the game but only 3 were earned. Hence....you do know that 1 of the runs was unearned, right?
  18. You know 1 of those runs was unearned, right?
  19. 3 earned in 6 ip = weak? You admitted on the game thread that you only watched the last 2 innings of the game. So how can you comment on clays performance when you didn't see even 1 pitch he threw? So did emp make a "reactionary post" or was he "trolling" you??
  20. He made all the plays clean. Didn't look uncomfortable.
  21. 6 ip / 3 earned is "blows"? I think it's considered a QS......
  22. I'm pretty sure you "trolled" him first. Regardless he isn't trolling you. He is responding to your argument. You brought up clays record...he didn't. Let me guess. Clay sucks because he gave up 4 runs (3 earned) last night, right? If only he could give up 0 runs every start like every other pitcher on a 1 year /$13mm contract.....
  23. Excellent points Lefty. trout is so damn tempting though!
