Soxfest Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) Twins sac bunt and next drives in 2 something Sox never seem to do. Edited April 18, 2011 by Soxfest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 horrid stretch of games for the sox right now, TB started slow but are playing awesome now, imagine when they get their lineup healthy meanwhile our multimillion dollar DH is being benched, of course Ozzie will act like the excuse of 'Price is a lefty' is valid. Since when do you pay somebody that kind of money who is essentially worthless against LHP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you see the Castro's, McCutchen's, Heyward's, Posey's, ect make pretty effortless transitions to the big leagues it gets rather frustrating.

Real Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Every team in our division has a pitcher better than anybody we have, save the Royals (though will that be true next year?) I'd take Masterson over anybody in our rotation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take Masterson over anybody in our rotation Masterson's got to do it consistently for at least 4 months before you start comparing him to Danks or even Edwin Jackson. And let's see what Peavy can do before we've entirely given up on him, as well. Edited April 18, 2011 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
