Not sure about the game threads. I have read that spring training is not a true indicator of what a pitcher can perform. javy for instance may be working in a new delivery.. I have faith in Javy what choice do we have?

hadn't heard about a new delivery

 

10-3 dbacks, quentin, crede, ozuna, bourgeois, and thome all get hits (Cabrera in the middle flies out to right)

 

paulie up now

I'm not a Javy guy, but I don't even think twice about a veteran guy getting lit up right now. It doesn't mean anything. If it is continuing 3 weeks from now, I probably would change my mind.

Split squad games today - the other game is in Mexico. Masset is dominating AZ - 3IP 3H 1BB 1K

Sox 1 AZ 0 - 4th inn.

every ball ohka just pitched was hit hard, right to somebody lol

Linebrink seems to be out of synch this preseason so far.

 

Hopefully - with that contract - he's not a bust .

All they are trying to do as starters is get loose and build up arm strength. Javy is throwing for the first time this spring I believe. Johan Santana got lit up the other day in his Mets debut.

was 10-0 prior to the last two innings, d-backs

10-5 now, listening to the gameday audio right now, the way they are playing seems very swaggerish

nah he has pitched in IS games, but this is the first cactus league game he's pitched

Hm. The boxscores haven't changed in awhile...

 

Maybe Arizona has gotten tired from hitting.

2-0 Sox

 

Swisher with a Homerun

Javy getting lit up, no big deal. Wes Whistler getting lit up, he's not good.

Maybe it's time they tried Whisler as a 1st baseman again.

 

I think it's safe to say, he's never going to make it as a pitcher for the Sox.

I wonder why Masset isn't considered a candidate for the 5th spot? It seems like he's busting his butt to be a serious contender for it (Losing 25 lbs and we know his fastball has some pop to it).

 

If he keeps throwing like this, it'd be hard for Ozzy and KW to ignore.

Haeger's knuckler is dancing in the Mexican heat.

I still wonder sometimes if Haeger might be a better starter than Floyd.

Edited March 2, 200818 yr by Greg The Bull Luzinski

Maybe Haeger should pitch in the Mexican League.

Haeger had his opportunity last season in Charlotte to be the 1st call up before Floyd, and his numbers didn't warrant the opportunity.

 

He deserves to be back there to start the season, and I figure he's been passed by the likes of Lance Broadway now.

Childers is definitely not making this team.

Attendance in Mexico: 12,855.

 

Mexico > Tampa Bay...?

Swisher is es beast. 2 HR today. Very Nice!

I have a feeling we're really going to dislike Linebrink. Great to see Swisher off to a strong start. I was impressed with the double he had yesterday, as he was actually running hard into 2nd.
