  1. This has been the mode of operation in pro sports for 2 generations now. Yeah it sucks at times, but with the failure of the RSNs, this was the next step to keep it all in house.
  2. It could also be another cheap way of not addressing the ACTUAL problems in the Sox organization.
  3. But guys who bash their work mates anonymously to media, those are the guys who you want around.
  4. If they were to do this right, they really could fix every mistake they made with New Comiskey. The paying for it part, who knows.
  5. The Sox way would have left hundreds of millions of dollars potentially on the table by potentially rushing him as a reliever instead of taking his time as a starter. He might have started the money earlier, but he should have been between $3m and $5m in his first year in arb as a starter. Instead he was barely over minimum as an injury riddled reliever.
  6. It doesn't really say. It kind of implies he came in with Barfield and Janish, but never really clearly talks about his hire date.
  7. And of course, no one will actually ask those kinds of questions, nor will they stand up as a press conference and talk about these things in detail, so we get the minions getting their PR pieces in exchange for good press.
  8. Which is more likely to happen with his way. He becomes more valuable as a starter, which he did this year. He's also done it without any injury. He left himself up to the Sox for the previous years, and we see where it got him. No extension, hurt, and a reliever.
  9. Diminish attendance? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Jerry: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
  10. You might think so, but he obviously things different and he is the one with the billion dollar arm.
  11. I promise you when a guy goes from 50 to 140 innings in one year his arm is some degree of hurting pretty much all of the time. These guys have aches and soreness on a good day. No one would think less of him if it was too much because of the leap he just took.
  12. a pitcher who just tripled his max innings? My ArM hUrTs. Done.
  13. He quite literally said he didn't want to shutdown and start again
