Well, from having lived in KC for nearly a decade, the ball can really fly out of there if it's warm enough and the winds don't knock it down...especially down the lines.

flavum Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 If the Tigers and Blue Jays can't play the next couple days, they're both going to have some serious scheduling issues. Which is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know -- when you look what he did last year hitting in front of Pujols, now in front of Miggy, it makes you wonder. Hate that f***ing guy.

Cali Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Buehrle can't even make it through 5. Great dude, I know... But so glad the Sox aren't paying him that kind of money to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they stay that way for another week. Agreed. Buehrle will probably end up being the same guy, but if he has an awful year, I wouldn't put it past him to leave a ton of money on the table, and just go home.

Cali Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Buehrle will probably dominate the Sox though. Soft tossing lefty with a good change up? Forget about it. Gonna need Flowers and Viciedo to hit a few homers a piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 So that's what happened to Kalapse. Mark Buehrle ate him. I don't know if it's me or the fact I haven't seen him in a while, but Mark is looking rather hefty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget about it. Gonna need Flowers and Viciedo to hit a few homers a piece. 2012 Sox vs LHP - .755 OPS (compared to .735 vs RHP) 2012 Sox vs finesse pitchers - .793 OPS (versus .703 vs power & .693 vs avg P/F) They would hit Buehrle just fine.

I'd be shocked if he did that, especially considering how backloaded his contract is. His 2014 & 2015 salaries are $18 million & $19 million.

We can trade them Thornton. The funny thing is Phil Coke was terrible for most of the last couple of years, and ended up being their best reliever down the stretch.

We'll see what the big chunks of that payroll do to overcome it. They've kept them afloat so far. I hope it kills them all season, but watch, they'll probably just call up Rondon and he'll save 50 in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
