  1. The backwards vision also needs to include this fact: Josh ended the 2012 season injured. Nobody had outbid the Twins, because durability was the issue. He then had a career year, but confirmed the worries at the end. The other teams may have been happy to let a bottom-feeder team like the Twins assume the risk inherent in the contract, and then swoop in if the risk proved to be negligible. That scenario did not wind up playing out. The contract hasn't turned out to be team friendly; it's instead been approximately market-correct all in all (with some months left to go of course). You don't get much in trade, for a contract perceived to be market-correct - otherwise, the team you're trading with would have signed him in the first place.
  2. And lord knows we need as many stutes as we can get.
  3. Oakland, Tampa Bay, and maybe one or two others might. We should trade with them and steal away all their low-BABIP guys - it might be the newest market inefficiency.
  4. As Miracle Wins go, yeah, that was quite a 10th inning today by the Red S-... wait, what? Yes, congrats to Dougie Baseball and his charges.
  5. Thanks for reopening an old wound.
  6. That was the joke, yes.
  7. Greatest? What, are you trolling? The question is greatest pitcher of his era, or greatest pitcher ever.
  8. Did they get scrod?
  9. gunnarthor, you forgot to mention that May and Meyer are doing well.
  10. Uh, infractions may be about to be handed out in that thread, let's not go there here.
  11. My weeds are about to get punched.
  12. Is that a line from Brokeback Fenway?
  13. I would like to credit myself for jinxing the Sox closer. My work here is done.
  14. Question, if you're John Farrell, do you send Uehara out to pitch the 11th?
  15. They black out NESN's ads on mlb.tv. Pity, I'm sure some local color would bleed through.
  16. By George. I think he's got it!
  17. "Four minus three is one. I don't get it."
  18. Obligatory Burton snark.
  19. Yes, the benchmark by which all other pitchers are measured.
  20. We need more chatter from the Twins dugout. "Hey dude! Yeah you, Lackey! Your BABIP is unsustainable!"
