  1. True but if Evanyson turns out as projected it will still be a bad trade.
  2. in any event this trade stunk for several reasons. The O's already had their long term C in sight and it wasn't AR. There is no way they were going to sign him as a FA so instead they got one A+ SP prospect and one A-SP prospect PLUS a BU C likely to put up as good or better #'s than AR plus a 4th player as well. We have already released the scrap B/U C the O's threw in the deal. HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE trade !!!
  3. i don't see them missing the postseason. What I DO see is AR continuing to be a flop WHEN HE ACTUALLY PLAYS and then the lockout hits and we lose a signifigant part of 2027 and then he leaves as a FA.
  4. that is exactly what i have been saying. there is no argument anyone can make defending this trade either today or the day the trade was made. it was a huge overpay no matter what anyone says.
  5. so you still support the trade??. I said from day 1 it was a bad trade. History tells us there is almost no chance JH would buck up to sign him as a FA and given what we have seen of him to date why would he?? Not to mention we stand to lose a good portion of his one year we have him due to a possible/probable lock out. Terrible trade--terrible !!!
  6. does anyone know if AR has played more games than he's missed since he got here?? Gotta be close.
  7. fast looking like one of the biggest heists in Red Sox history.
  8. do the sox care if they lose part of AR time in Boston with a lock out?
  9. a catcher who has missed at least half the games since he arrived
  10. you were right. it didn't go well for him. Feel sorry for those who bought tix for this game. Henry should offer 50% rebates
  11. Not saying that Suarez was great but it was 0-0 at the time and that would have been a DP and cleared the bases. Everything fell apart after that. I think Rafael caught that ball.
  12. we should never have made the trade for mead either and i said it at the time. It's a lot easier to find FA infielders with similar ability than it is to find a YOUNG proven quality MLB arm like Early.
  13. a big problem is that we traded away 4 good young cost controlled SP in trades and only got 1 back. That will almost certainly come back to bite us.
  14. not sure why there hasn't been more talk about Rafael play in CF?? Totally turned the game around and I am pretty sure it was a catch.
