blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest wednesday december 26 2012 i am underwhelmed so joel hanrahan talk about an underwhelming move and it feels like we ve made this same move at least twice since papel douche left acquire the closer from a small market team to come into the big boy division and be the closer oh and he has medical concerns and or a bad history against the al east even better andrew bailey check mark melancon check this feels exactly the same every article i ve read talks about how hanrahan s velocity was down last year and his walks were up frankly it feels like we traded mark melancon for the second coming of mark melancon oh and we threw in two of the dodger prospects we got along with stolmy who ahs shown some slow developing progress over the years i am sure they know more than me but would the sox have been worse off keeping melancon and hoping one of the kids develops or use them for a piece that the sox really need posted by x at 3 47 pm 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday december 17 2012 the al east knuckling under are the jays the new marlins looks like a deal is done that will send dickey from the mets to toronto in return the mets get a top rated but injured catching prospect and a box of yodels the question now must be asked how will the rest of the east respond do they need to adding dickey goes a long way toward making the jays rotation deep johnson buerhle dickey morrow romero but the question is how good josh johnson has yet to pitch in the al his career numbers are outstanding pretty much across the board but is he a top of the rotation guy in the al east buerhle is a high innings guy but his results vary since 05 he s been basically a 500 pitcher how will his soft throwing style be received in this heavy hitting division dickey was outstanding last year what was so different he s been barely serviceable over his career will he revert morrow and romero both have talent but again will they finally produce looking at every other rotation in the east brings much of the same x posted a bunch about the yankees rotation the sox rotation even with dempster contains all sorts of high end potential but just as many question marks it looks as though the jays are loading up for a run this year overall i see a cluster at the top of the al east this year the unbalanced schedule is going to make it a fierce competition i don t see one team that stands out my prediction is that 3 teams finish between 88 93 wins the fourth place team will have at least 85 wins the last place team won t be far below 500 posted by grieverules at 1 56 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest thursday december 13 2012 when will the yankees have their 93 loss season okay to follow up on dino s request for a separate post yes i think the yanks could very soon have a disaster season just like the one the sox did i will say right up front that i will employ some shady slight of hand here and apply non scientific analysis in many instances but this is really a bar room argument not a scientific thesis sure the yankees won 95 games in 2012 get it and suire the roster is not set for next year but so far they have lost russell martin and look to be losing swisher and soriano they probably get a catcher like pierzynski who would be about a wash with maritn rivera is back to replace soriano next year does anyone think that mo at 43 will be as good as soriano was last year soriano had a 2 6 war which is basically what rivera had the last three full seasons before 2012 do you think he steps in and picks up where he left off maybe maybe not swisher gone replace by gardner swisher s war was 3 5 last year gardner has the potential to match that and has twice in his career but he is coming of an elsbury eque season injured non performing disappointing its possible he fails massively to pick up the slack as for the rest of the offense i will just lump them into two categories those that played way over their heads last year cano jeter most notably and players that careers are on a downward path arod texeira and granderson i won t bother with war or vorp or any stats but i will jsut say that those last three guys make a lot more outs now than they used to and i say that even having watched the sox lose nearly every game to the yankees this year usually by 10 runs and their pitching sabathia wasn t his elbow hurting at the end of last year he had hsi worst season in 5 years kuroda 38 years old seems like to come back to earht and not repeat era 126 petitte he s old phil hughes ivan nova freddy garcia these are guys that scare you so let s just say every starting pitcher and rivera are one game worse than last year that s 6 wins and then they 7 old guys in the field are one game worse that s back to 500 and then its just one big injury or ped suspension away from mayhem and seriously sure arod will miss the start of the season and rivera was out from early may last year and gardner missed most of the season but really when was the last time the yanks had a major offensive piece go down with an injury for the year is their luck set to run out its coming baby and i love that they have a budget they ll have noone to blame but themselves posted by x at 8 11 pm 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest wednesday december 12 2012 say it ain t so youk my brother sent me this email this morning which i think is fairly indicative of what some of red sox nation will be thinking today i ve been trying to brainstorm ways to crowdsource the 12 million youk would be paid by the yankees we could offer it to him to not play in the bronx we could get red sox nation to pledge money to the jimmy fund in his name but only if he walks out of the deal in that case the money would go to the jimmy fund and a big banner would be placed on the dana farber building thanking youk if not the money could be paid for banners to fly over yankee stadium every time he comes up to bat reminding him that he let down the kids including this one i am an huge youk fan i was happy for him to go to chicago because the situation last year was eating him up i didn t agree with the move but i think it was necessary youk had become too frustrated with our team and he is the type of guy that will does spill over emotionally we know he had issues with other players in the past all that being said i don t blame him for getting his pay day with the yankees after all we traded him he has no loyalty to us what so ever posted by i believe in dinosaurs at 10 23 am 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday december 11 2012 don t count the patriots out just yet i am not sure how the other gysers felt about last night s game heading into it but i was nervous i thought the texans had a nice balanced game and would prove too much for the patriots i was convinced that the texans would establish a decent ground game and force us into man to man coverage in the secondary this would over tax our up and coming secondary and cost us the game not to mention their swat tastic defense would stiffle brady and force some tight spots or bad decisions well not only did none of those issues happen but it was like the patriots stole the texans game plan and used it against them our secondary really stepped up last night yes you read that correctly our secondary really stepped up last night our ability to play man to man on the outside wr allowed us to put 8 in the box to keep foster from having a field day this forced schaub to read our secondary which as it turns out is a little tricky i guess having a lot of quasi cornerbacks in your secondary allows you to mix up coverage a lot the end result was one critical pick and a tentative schaub on top of that we played more 4 man fronts than we do typically thus allowing us to keep their offensive line guessing and wait for it put pressure on their qb end result more swatted passes than the swat tastic texans the question is is this a sign that the patriots have sorted out a winning formula has the secondary cleaned up its act or at least has belichick figured out a way to make them effective the 49ers will be a good test sure they are down their starting qb but kaepernick seems to have stepped in nicely certainly it will be a better test than the dolphins anyway comments are welcome posted by i believe in dinosaurs at 11 33 am 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest saturday december 08 2012 dempster and lohse at the top of the list i think we can all agree that we need some serious improvement to our starting rotation a quick scan of mlbtraderumors com shows that really only two names are in the running dempster and lohse both achieved a 3 3 or higher war according to fangraphs in 2012 which puts them at or slightly better than lester in 2012 to that point i think we all agree we need more than another lester 2012 what this tells me is that cherrington and crew are hoping that farrel will work his magic and get lester to improve we can then supplement the line up with another lester type e g dempster and lohse feels to me like this is a stop gap posted by i believe in dinosaurs at 3 54 pm 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest wednesday december 05 2012 and now victorino are the red sox done with their lineup will there be other moves one s answer to these questions would need to be based on which opinion you hold 1 is this a bridge rebuilding year or 2 are they trying to win now the sox just completed a 3 year deal for shane victorino that s the third multi year contract they ve handed out this off season why do all these multi year deals if you have younger guys ready to go why go from cody ross to shane victorino especially with other teams driving the latter s price up put me in the camp of the sox think they can make a run with this new look team so to me they aren t done wheeling and dealing as of now here is their opening day lineup cf ellsbury 2b pedroia dh ortiz 1b napoli 3b middlebrooks rf victorino c saltalamachhia david ross lf gomes ss iglesias ciriaco that s a pretty deep lineup a little weak at the bottom but they are not done they are in a position to deal salty and have ross teach lavarnway how to call a game they could trade ellsbury there are still outfielders to be had and let s not forget the victorino is a natural cf swisher and hamilton may still be in play the school of thought out there is that they need another starter but what if lackey s woes were because of his injury would a 1 2 3 of lester buchholz and lackey be horrible the answer is no but it wouldn t be enough against the pitching depth of the yankees and rays in the al east not to mention the other wild card competitors so they need another top of the rotation guy they obviously have major league talent to trade for it ellsbury could bring you that and heck greinke is still out there as a fa put me in the column of the sox have a plan they have a lot of flexibility and signing all of these guys to 3 year deals makes it seem like they aren t mailing it in for one year to wait for the youngsters posted by grieverules at 12 58 pm 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday december 03 2012 napoli on board i am going to continue with my analysis of the sox readers or not napoli agreed today to join the sox the roster is shaping up but it isn t what sox fans generally expect they are going for good guys but are they going for good players the two additions they ve made this far are gomes and napoli this is not the crawford or gonzalez of the past they will should make for a better clubhouse but will that translate to competing in the al east current sox lineup cf ellsbury 2b pedroia dh ortiz 1b napoli lf gomes 3b middlebrooks c salty lavarnway ss iglesias ciriaco rf this is not a bad lineup i am thinking they will now go hard after swisher he fills out the rf role and can play 1b while napoli could catch that would most likely make saltalamacchia a trading piece again let s not forget that there s been a lot of talk about hamilton including lucchino saying they wouldn t do long deals but then quickly taking that back that could mean a change of position for ellsbury rf or a trade having ellsbury and salty available for pitching may go a long way in this fa dry off season are the sox building for a run this year despite all this talk of bridging and rebuilding it is starting to look that way posted by grieverules at 4 22 pm no comments email this blogthis share
