man that was so sick

what in the world is with the pitch selection tonight? he's almost abandoned the changeup, which is clearly his best pitch? against an almost exclusively lefty lineup, why so many sliders/fastballs?

[/ QUOTE ]

not having yr starting catcher probably can't help

[/ QUOTE ]

the second part was referring to matsuzaka/varitek's gameplan

tito says it may be nerves, i'll buy it i guess

[/ QUOTE ]

Uh...

He's got some great stuff....and he's got some terrible stuff.

I was telling my friends I think it's mostly nerves. That and the Yankees lineup isn't exactly soft.

Matsuzaka for 150+ mill isn't looking so bad right now lol

yeah but even if the Yanks decided to go hard after him...can't think they would believe that a 60 million bid would be the one they would need to put in.
I assume they would have done 40-50 million and still finished behind the Sox bid.

Dice-K surely is the real deal, damn. First time I'm getting to see him pitch live. He has some very deadly material. Shame the Yanks didn't get him, we could use him.

As for the 4 HR's... big deal. How many big league starts does Wright have? Less than the number of home runs he just gave up! Sure, it's amazing... but this guy isn't quite 100% starting rotation material. Besides, Lowell's HR was the only one that wasn't some hanging curveball over the middle of the plate, or a fastball belt high.

g-bebe,

I truly believe Wright will be a very very good pitcher by next year. He's definitely got the stuff, he just has to be a little more consistent. He hangs too many pitches.

I wonder if he gets another start or is shipped back down to
double A.

sending him back down would be awful imo. you need to show the kid you have confidence in him.

I'm not sure who's spot he was filling in the rotation, think it was CMW or maybe Moose...but given the bullpen maybe they move him there instead of shipping him down.
