Boston Red Sox Thread

Looking ahead to next offseason, in the past I've wanted the Red Sox to target a pitcher like Price or Zimmermann and stay away from Cueto. Thinking that he might not translate as well to the American League. I take that back after reading this:

• Johnny Cueto was 12-for-13 in quality starts when facing a top-10 offense in 2014, his 92.3 percentage best in the majors. He had a 2.00 ERA in those games.

Cueto and Zimmerman are the two guys I want, either is fine for me.

Still preseason, but Sanchez-Owens should be a fun one today.

I'm really high on Owens, but obviously we have to see him against major league lineups.

Not a great line today against a mostly regular Jays lineup (minus Encarnacion), but that lineup is specifically designed to wreck lefties.

Owens just has all the intangibles you want out of a LHP, whether he can put it all together at the highest level or not, who knows.

I don't know if I've ever heard a baseball player with a better attitude than Stroman. He's going to be so, so good when he gets back.

Did the Sox win the First Tommy John of the Year Award today?

This shows you just how much attention I give to spring training sometimes; I even remember Darvish's surgery, but for some reason I thought it happened last year.

Anyways, Betts for 2015 MVP! (He musta used up his rookie eligibility last year, right?)

I know I said this last year, but I'm once again considering a trip to Fenway this year. Hopefully it works out this time.

i know this will probably get laughed at, but I'd at least consider having Napoli catch a few games here and there now that Vazquez is out. It opens up a spot for Craig to play a little bit, since it appears Victorinos spot in the lineup is guaranteed regardless of his production.

You're crazy.

I'm just worried they are going to trade Craig without even giving him a chance to play. I fing loved that guy when he was in STL.

Let the Swihart era begin.
