NorthSideSox72 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ May 22, 2010 -> 02:41 PM) Gotta love the NL. With the Cardinals starting pitching falling apart, be interesting if they get interested in Buehrle come June/July. That sort of performance is well beyond league differential. I really think the league difference tends to get waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overblown. Its not as if the NL is a AAA league for the AL, they are a lot closer than that. If the Sox staff ERA was, say, between 4 and 5 in the weeks prior... the NL is not so bad that it suddenly drops to zero. MB and Floyd have both looked good, and the bullpen has looked good for a few weeks now and most of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at these hitters, they act like they've never seen an offspeed pitch. I'm not saying that Floyd doesn't look good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Ely hadn't even seen the majors yet, so you can't really use him to make that comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was talking two weeks ago about how all agents should push their pitchers to sign in the NL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemon_44 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 QUOTE (dmbjeff @ May 22, 2010 -> 03:24 PM) Yeah he is easily the biggest disappointment of the offseason guys. He is a regular player who is playing horrible. Pierre at least has started to play better as of late People need to give Teahen a chance. He hasn't even played 2 months for the Sox yet. Let him get settled in and adjusted and i think he'll be fine. Look at Rios's first 2 months with Sox. Alot of people wanted him gone. Granted he came in mid-season but there's still an adjustment period no matter what. I'll bet Teahen starts hitting well and has a very good 2nd half.

Agreed, his inside fastball to them is more effective than against lefties. I can't believe he was given one hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
