Even Red Sox announcers saying he's safe

He's safe

11th pitch

QUOTE (beautox @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:36 PM) Appears as if Peavy and AJ can't get on the same page. nice AB for Abreu so far Peavy having trouble seeing

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:29 PM) Johnson looks legit so far. Slow it down. It's frigid. Alexei!

Nice catch Alexei

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 15, 2014 -> 07:17 PM) Good inning. For those who have seen Johnson a lot, does he have any off-speed?? I feel like he throws two pitches that are only a small difference in speed. I noticed this his last outing as well He's got a good slider

Gawn!

He's starting to use a cutter. Hope he can use that as an effective pitch

Let's go boys! Very cold game could benefit Johnson if he can throw strikes.

If Semien keeps showing improvements and needs to play everyday, hope Beckham comes back and they do move him around. Wouldn't be surprised to see him back for the month of May and hope he does well so we can move him at the end of May or early June.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 11:36 PM) No, I don't like drafting relievers in any round. I'd rather draft a fringe starter than a regular closer. Maybe that's too old school thinking, but I want my bullpen full of failed starters. Addison Reed was drafted as a closer

Loved Peavy but let's bomb him boys

I'm tired of Beckham. Just go away

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 14, 2014 -> 05:01 PM) Just a guess...they're not willing to cut Downs loose for nothing and they're not sending Veal down to make room for him any time soon, so they don't think there's a match. Purcey and Heath are already also lefties in Charlotte's pen. Downs hasn't been able to get anyone out. Veal isn't good. Downs has 1.2 IP 3 ER 4 BB....I'll give him a little more time but I'd sign mijares and put him in AAA for a couple weeks

Why not a guy like Jose Mijares?

DBacks are 4-11...wow.

This team will level out. Just hope the offense keeps up for the most part. Especially Alexei. Want his value as best as possible.

If Cleto can get his command in check look out. He's only 24

Will wait til near July before thinking about trades. We can fill bullpen via in house. Guerra should be called up soon

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 13, 2014 -> 08:43 PM) Downs is going to be ok. You don't throw away a guy with his track record because of two weeks. He's like 37 and literally can't get a guy out

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 13, 2014 -> 08:16 PM) I read from Buster Olney on Twitter the other day that if the DBacks keep falling back, they could a team that folds it in early. I wouldn't mind trading for Reed again if Sox are in the race... That'd be funny

Downs and Veal need to go

Webb. Bring up guerra from AAA. Move Lindstrom to set up maybe until Jones is back
