    really?


    a minor disparagement of the DSP crew mixed with a little tongue in cheek slam for all things Muslim...:capn:

    I couldn't find a better way to welcome you while in the same breath distributing a little fecal matter at your poor, though benevolent, assessment of our collective DSP character...


    Comes with the turf...:duck:

    Abso-fucking-lutely correct.

    Start trading top prospects now and say hello to Fox/McCourt version 2.0. The idea is to build a farm system to sustain the level of talent on YOUR club, not some one else's club.

    When it comes to trading Seager/Joc/Urias...just say no. Put down the pipe and walk away.

    IMO a WS is not won with your 3/4, actually they don't matter much as long as your 1/2 does the job. Depending on travel and off days, your 1/2 might pitch games 4 and 5, and worst case 5 and 6. If it goes to game seven then #3 might feel the pressure. Not many teams can match our top 4 as is, but...I don't think Beckett will be around post season, jmo.

    Source: Pederson not dangled for Lester

    LOS ANGELES -- The Boston Red Sox have a contingency plan in place should Jon Lester be traded before his scheduled Wednesday night start. Red Sox manager John Farrell told reporters the team would call up Brandon Workman from Triple-A Pawtucket in such a scenario.

    Could Lester, in fact, make his next start for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who have yet to announce a starter for Saturday's game? Rumors continue to swirl that the Dodgers are in discussions about Lester, but one scenario -- that they would trade top outfield prospect Joc Pederson in a deal for Lester -- was shot down by a Dodgers source Tuesday.

    Boston has had minimal offensive production from its outfielders this season and has few minor-league options on the horizon.

    "I'm not expecting anything huge," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said about trade possibilities before Tuesday night's series opener against the Atlanta Braves. "We just want to keep our club going the way we want it to go."

    Josh Beckett's performance Tuesday night could impact the urgency general manager Ned Colletti approaches discussions for a starting pitcher. If Beckett returns to his April-through-June form and his bothersome left hip holds up, Colletti might feel more comfortable standing pat. The team is skipping Dan Haren's spot in the rotation -- thus Saturday's vacancy -- hoping the rest will allow him to pitch as well as he did early in the season.

    Colletti has also said he's in search of help for the bullpen.

    Cubs backup catcher gets the win against the Rockies. First time I've seen that happen.

    Well Justin Masterson is off the board! He's headed to the Cardinals who were in on Lester/Price so that may be moot. I actually thought Masterson would be a good fit here, ah well.

    Hear that? That's the sound of the price dropping for Lester.

    ^They just unloaded Felix Doubront to the Cubs for the infamous player to be named later too.

    Too bad Morton can't hold a lead or the Pirates might actually win this game.

    Nor can they stay on the bag. Did you see the Giants turned a walk into a double play? WTF, Pirates!?!?
