Re: *official 2007 red sox thread*
Also, I am going to my first Red Sox game in about 15 years on Tuesday. I am really excited. Is anyone else going?

And my man Tavares gives them 5 innings of one hit no runs... [/ QUOTE ] I suggest that from now on, we all refer to Julian as "my man Tavares". |

Great.... Timlin's rehabing. Who goes when he comes back if its Lopez I am gonna be pissed. Hopefully its Pinero or Romero, neither of them are getting any innings and when they do they suck. I don't know if the Red Sox would try to send them down though since they don't have options and Lopez does. [/ QUOTE ] Can someone explain to me what it means to have "options"? Thanks. |

Re: *official 2007 red sox thread*
Options basically involved whether or not a player can be sent up and down from the minors without having to go through waivers where any team can grab them. I find it pretty confusing but more or less are 3 years as a pro a player needs to be on the 40 man roster or he can be taken in the Rule 5 draft (also confusing). If someone is on the 40-man roster but not the 25-man MLB roster he is on one of his option years. Each player has 3 options years and during that time he can be sent up and down from the minors as often as they like. After the 3rd option year to send a player down he has to clear waivers. Does that make any sense at all?? I doubt it..

Re: *official 2007 red sox thread*
You are definitely right. Thanks though thats a good explanation
Also, I am probably the only one but looking ahead I almost want the Yankees to win a few games. This season is gonna be pretty boring come August if they are 15 games out. I think a solid 8 game lead all season would be great just so I have something to watch every night. |

There is no place like Fenway Park, granted I am a little biased having been to 36 games last year but you will understand what I mean as soon as you walk up. Stay the whole time, enjoy the evening, and take a walk around the park during the 5th or so inning at a break, explore a bit. |

Re: *official 2007 red sox thread*
yeah i have liked what i've seen from lopez this year, whereas timlin, pineiro, romero and even donnelly have been kinda rough. i think donnelly will get more work later on in the year and look a little better. pineiro i am convinced is junk, do you really think anybody is going to claim him off waivers with his $4m salary? if they do, good riddance.
