Is that how you came to the conclusion that Tavarez is better than Wakefield?

Plus points for the misdirection. It's fine with me if you prefer to just stick to stats and ignore the rest.

Come on, Toro; you know I don't rely solely on stats. I post a ton of stuff from Hardball Times and Carlos Gomez's site to get the scouting angle. The most notable post in this vein was Beckett's mechanics changes.

Yes, of course.

So all I'm saying is there is room for both points of view. I'm not against using stats, it's just that I don't play fantasy leagues so I don't have the inclination to do all the research that some of you do.

But I enjoy the game, am passionate about the Sox and feel like I have a little knowledge of the game and most importantly like to give my opinion and sometimes make off the wall predictions like the Schilling closing one.

Sometimes I nail it and sometimes I don't but it's all fun.

yes we can

also, sublime: remy just made some comment to that exact effect after lowell's dinger. (maybe that's what prompted this post?)

I think it was orsillo who said that. He said "they should save some for the Tigers" Because Remy said "it doesn't work that way"

thought it was the other way around, but yeah whatever

my biggest concern is still the starting pitching after beckett and d mats. i am really worried about schilling.

i wonder how much clays projections change after his last 90 innings of work. PECOTA wasn't overly high (nor low either). i suppose its hard to get a read on a guy who had not even been a pitcher two years before. before 07 they had 160 innings on which to project him. he has pitched more than half that amount this year at a new level and just blown the roof off to become probably the best pitcher not to pitch in the majors yet.

yeah i am really stoked about CB, ideally i would like to see him get a cup of coffee this september but NOT be counted on for anything too crucial. then let him come in next spring and blow everyone away and get a roster spot.

It was something like Orsillo: "Too bad they cannot save these runs for Detroit" (maybe he said "tomorrow").

It wasn't complaining or serious at all.

I am sure, like you said, if BOS scores just a couple of runs tomorrow, someone, not in jest, will make the same comment.
