Weaver is freakin fantastic but Felix was better last year, no question.

 

True. I just don't think the guy gets enough pub.

Why do Red Sox fans suck so bad?

Because they still believe they are entitled and are deserving of some kind of respect from the rest of the country and that they have it the worst, as if they're still suffering. They are in the shadow of the Yankees and whatever else.

 

Nobody feels sorry for them, and quite frankly, nobody gives a flying f*** about the Red Sox. If Fenway imploded tomorrow, I'd celebrate.

Seriously, they are 100 times worse than Yankees fans. They've got cubs fans beat too. I hope they lose about 100 games this year.

Well they have a zero percent chance to make the playoffs, so I wouldn't worry about that..

I still think they make the playoffs.

Best sign they had all year was Beckett's outing last night. If he's healthy, they're still the favorites in the AL imo.

1st ballot HOFer Dan Hudson off to a rocky start in Arizona tonight.

This! ^^^^^

I'd like to take this time to retract my "Rangers are going to suck" statement.

 

Thank you for your time.

Alexi Ogando: 2-0, 13 scoreless innings, 0.54 WHIP

 

Saw the highlights. I think this dude is legit. It's a shame the Rangers had to wait so long for this guy (due to human trafficking). Tommie Hunter better get healthy quick.

Only think I ever questioned was their rotation sans Lee. But it's been dynamite so far.

Sorry, Jerry, times have a changed. Gonna have to bite the bullet with Danks.

As soon as D1 agrees to sign for $30.5 million, I'll guarantee you KW and JR will jump at it.

That obviously would've have happened already. Cahill, like others, went with the security. That's good. As I don't think Cahill is that good, anyway. Danks ain't signing for that. Nor should he.

Exactly the point. D1 went for the big payday rather than the security.

 

Nothing the Sox can do can force him to sign one of these team-friendly guaranteed money deals. He's going to get his $100 million payday.

True. Either way the '3-year' rule was never an option. Now it's REALLY not an option that JD has established himself as one of the best non-ace pitchers in baseball. I'm just saying something is going to have to give. Same with Jackson if he has a good year.

I said this in the other thread...let's be honest, if Edwin Jackson keeps doing what he's doing since he came to Chicago, he's going to be pushing close to the $100 million figure too. His agent is Scott Boras. He'll get paid what he earns this year.

 

There's a team or two in NY who could kinda use a pitcher.

I know you were joking. But if you actually dissect him it's easy to see that his upside is that of a #2 starter. NL, AL. whatever. That's never going to be proven unless he gets traded back to an AL team. His velocity is up a tick from last year and his changeup looks very much improved. Hudson looks to be legit. With that said, and for the sake of the entire board, let's hope the same holds true for Jackson.

I agree completely. And this is why I b**** like I do. It's like even if he goes prime Pedro we're f***ed.

Matsuzaka getting beat around again...seems like he might be a guy that could be acquired with a big chunk of his salary paid...wonder if the Coopster could do anything with him...he's making $10 million this year and $12 million next....I'll bet Boston would be willing to pay $15-16 million of that for a a warm body just to have him gone...

lol@Boston. This is great. I respect the hell out of their front office. But to see their fans on the verge of mass suicide is wonderful.
