By that definition, there are no aces in MLB.

 

Very few of them

It was good to see Ramirez go to right field on that single though

 

He's been swinging much better lately. Really, it's AJP and Quentin that look lost now.

Seriously, STFU people. You are the same guys that were busy talking about how awful Floyd was last year and what a joke of a pitcher he was too when he started rough. Give it a rest people. You are ruining the game thread.

An ace gives your team a chance to win every night.

 

 

It's 3-2 so we do have chance, but your definition might leave is with a handful of pitchers through MLB history. I understand what you are saying though

No, but NL hitters will make a lot of pitchers look a lot better than they are. What about all the scouts worried in the Spring about how much his stuff had seemingly deteriorated. Very few pitchers can throw as many sliders as he did for so many years in their 20s without losing their stuff quickly. Smoltz is basically an anomaly, and that's only cause he went to the bullpen.

 

 

You're right, dude...he's washed up and I too wish we still had Clayton Richard.

Sorry but there is not much to talk about.

The Sox ruined this game thread, and many others, by being bad.

No one is willing to chat, so this is your punishment.

 

 

woooooo

You're right, dude...he's washed up and I too wish we still had Clayton Richard.

 

Never said he was washed up...it's just there were a lot of warning signs that he could struggle. And yes, I'd rather have Richard, the prospects, and 15 million than Peavy. I was also a much bigger fan than most of Richard.

So why is he still out there?

It's 3-2 so we do have chance, but your definition might leave is with a handful of pitchers through MLB history. I understand what you are saying though

 

He will barely make it 5 innings same as the Indian game from his first start. If the offense is not working a five inning 3 run start is not good.

Sorry but there is not much to talk about.

And talking about what a piece of s*** this team is ok. Talking about how Peavy is completely worthless, etc. How about some perspective people. I'm dissapointed but get yourselves in control cause these game threads are flat out embarrassing and to be quite frank ignorant.

Like the Twins, the Rays are a team with superior talent.

 

Pure and simple. We can't win with smoke and mirrors again.

Wow...continues to be afraid of the bat. Some audible booing by the 25 fans in attendance.

Peavy is just pitching like a p**** tonight. I said TONIGHT, not the entire season, or for the remainder of his time here

We can stil win a ton of games this year. It is early for sure

Agreed, they have 5 hitters that might be better than anyone we have. Their 5 man rotation is great now that they've gotten rid of Sonnanstine.

Well, it looks like this game is going down the drain rapidly...

Peavy is just pitching like a p**** tonight. I said TONIGHT, not the entire season, or for the remainder of his time here

 

I'd love to know his strike percentage on that change-up he's throwing.

The Sox ruined this game thread, and many others, by being bad.

No, comments that add absolutely zero value to the discussion are awful. Statements like he doesn't have 4 starts to figure it out, etc. He's got a Cy Young, was brilliant in 4 starts last year, and hasn't been near as bad this year as some of you guys seem to indicate. So when you take a game thread and spout the same stuff 1000 times that isn't even accurate or have a shred of fact to it, that is what ruins the game thread, because it fills the game thread with unintelligent nonsense.

5-2

It is just a way to pass the time as the game progresses. Tampa is good and this lineup could not be worse. The tone was set when he blew a two run lead by walking 6 guys.

 

The thread should be as embarassing as the lineup, it is almost there.

ovah
