you guys need to all calm down. Now, for the first time in a long time, I have actually been impressed with the Yankees this winter. For once, Cashman isn't throwing away money at has beens or never was. The mets were also smart to not counter the Giants offer on Zito. Barry's the 8th best pitcher in the big league's (maybe) and certainly isn't deserving of the kind of money he got. He only got that money cause he happened to be the only decent arm available (after dice k).
Now, as for the BoSox. I doubt we'll win the East (we never do for one reason or another, call it fate i guess). But on paper, I believe, there is no better team. Top to bottom. Pitching staff. You name it. We have two weaknesses. Middle relief and a closer. If we sort those two out and our starters pitch the way they should then it's basically over. No team in the AL can go 6 starters deep the way the Sox can and the teams that can produce similar offensive numbers (yanks, rangers) don't have the pitching. Yes, the white sox can pitch but their lineup is not comparable to that of the Red Sox, Yankees or even the Jays. |

my sentiment exactly. why would someone come onto a thread about baseball if s/he didn't like it in the first place? Probably just to make some smart ass comment. I don't care if someone don't like baseball, but there's no reason to express that to people who do, so to that person i say, off. |

you're wrong on several levels here. Lets start with your pitching staff. Your rotation isn't that great, Matz is good but not proven in the bigs, Schil is 40, Beckett had a phenomenally high era, wakefield sux, and papelbon is coming off of elbow problems. I wouldn't ride the 'red sox have a great rotation' wave if i was you. Your middle relieve is also suspect. JC Romero and Joel Piniero aren't saviors. Timlin is the best guy in the bullpen (unless papelbon goes back). To top it off, who the hell is your closer??? Hansen?? he's been getting smoked.
Your lineup, give me a break, I wouldn't even put the Sox lineup in the top 5. The additions to your team were marginally better than what you had. Drew is a walking sling and has had 2 good years in an 8 year career; he's average at best. Julio Lugo puts up numbers in an age of the jacked short stop. I will give it to you that Hinske was a good pick up, but that doesn't make up for the fact that CoCo is a huge disappointment, Varitek is aging early, and Youkilis had the stamina of a 12 yr old boy. Without Manny, you're lineup is reduced to basically nothing, noone would pitch to ortiz and everyone else is average at best.
The yankees on the otherhand are stacked on offense. Damon, Cano, Jeter, ARod, Matsui, Abreu, Giambi, Posada, etc.... Come on dude, they may not gel all the time, but they are hands down much better than anything the sox can throw out.
The yanks may not have the best rotation, but we certainly have some talented youth in the waits. It looks like Cashman is setting up for some trade bait. So any talks of the yankees staff sucking will end with a huge trade with those young hot prospect pitchers. Mark that one down. BTW, the yanks have the number 1 pitching prospect in baseball in phillip hughes. You'll surely see him in action by the end of the summer.
Oh and let us not forget that we still have the best closer in the game. |
