fathom Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2011 -> 07:45 PM) Yeah, but most likely he's going to return much less than Danks would, even though I think the returns on the field would be very similar this season. Ironically, we need Bartolo and Garcia to get injured in order to make Danks more desired by the Yanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2011 -> 07:45 PM) Danks doesn't come with the injury concerns Marcum had. So you think we get more than Marcum did? That would be stunning to me, but not because I don't think Danks has more value than Marcum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think to make them desire Jackson more. I think there would be plenty of teams interested in Danksy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what I meant. Similar performance and no injury history whatsoever. But does anybody outside of a fanboy think KW could land a stud like Lawrie? I sure don't.

Soxbadger Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Oh Im not saying youd get more than Danks, its just hilarious that people are acting like Jackson has no value, when he clearly could get a solid return. As for 6 ers, the last was runner left on base who scored because of a terrible decision by Ozzie and then a terrible fielding play by Pierre. Had Jackson been allowed to finish the 7th, I think we are leading. Some times its not about how many ers, its about how a pitcher looked. And if Jackson is only walking 1 batter a game, you are going to see that era/whip plummet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Because Im not really responding to anyone in particular, just general comments on the game as I see them. People always ask why I dont use the quote feature and its because unless its certain instances, I usually am just commenting in general, and I dont want someone to think that I picking them out.
