Boston Red Sawx: A Rebuild of the Red Sox

[AC]

Re: Boston Red Sawx: A Rebuild of the Red Sox

Heres what A-Gon had to say "It's sad that I had to leave LA after not even playing a year there. But I am more happy than sad because I get to come back to my hometown of SD and will hopefully start a win-now scenerio here with the new owner George McGovern.

I was about to correct this when I learned that A-Gone is actually from San Diego. I had no idea. Cool.

Pleeeeaaaaaassseeee don't trade for Kershaw. Hell, Ethier is realistic.

Re: Boston Red Sawx: A Rebuild of the Red Sox

So I reading my mail and Anthony Ranaudo's stock is rising. So after making him a high C, he became a mid B! Happy.

Red Sox vs. Skankees:

">

Ian KKKKKKKenedy is on the bump for us. The bad guys will have C.C. Sabathia pitching for them.

First inning Robbie Cano...

">

2-0. That's really all I'm posting because it was a horrid 10-1 loss.
Danny's getting pissed...

I just had to show you guys this. The NL East SUCKS this year!!!

Danny sat in his office, calmly thinking of a trade.

I could... naw. How 'bout... nah.

When all of a sudden a breaking news report came on TV.

Breaking News ladies and Gentleman. There has been a shooting in Minnesota that has appearently killed new found CEO and owner of the Minnesota Twins Larry Lucchino who also is the former President of the Boston Red Sox. We will have more updates as we go along.

All Danny could think of was the murder of John Henry. He was down and now Larry Lucchino was down.

I know it has something to do with Lackey, but he's not the only one. Someone's the leader and it aint Lackey...

Re: Boston Red Sawx: A Rebuild of the Red Sox

He's also a Yankee killer! 3 out his 5 HR are VS. the Skanks!

I'm surprised Royals didn't say anything about Gyorko.

That's because that sort of thing is kind of expected now.

2 seam Fastball: mid 80's/low control/Little break

Player Roundup: A very baseball smart man from the great country of Venezuela that has given us so many great players including future first ballot HOFer Felix "The King" Hernandez. We expect a floor of Lincecum in his prime for this young man. He has an awesome 4 seamer but not so much 2 seamer. He has an unbelievable curve and a descent Slider. Expect another pitch to be added after his auction. He also has a possible prime of someone no-one's ever seen. To sum it up: HE WILL BE BIG.

Red Sox (72-90)
Rays (74-88)

Re: Boston Red Sawx: A Rebuild of the Red Sox

2013 International Free Agent Auction 2/2

Player: Jamar Netzel, LHP
Age:17 (18 2014 opening day)
HT/WT: 6' 2"/222lbs
Place of Birth: Santo Domingo, DR

Pitches:
4 seam FB: High 90's/Low control/Lot's of break
Slider: High 80's/very low control/low break
Cutter: Low 90's/mediocre control/low break
Changeup: low-mid 80's/little control/lot's of break

Final thoughts: A real big name prospect from the DR. Expected to be good ace type pitcheer in his prime. Has an awesome Fastball and Change, but needs work on his others before you add another pitch. He is expected to be better than his Venezuelen counterpart, Mike Hernandez. I personally would want this guy over Mike!

Rule 1: Must have finished in the last two spots in there division in 2012.
Red Sox (5th ALE)
Rays (4th ALE)
Twins (5th ALC)
Royals (4th ALC)
Angels (t-2nd ALW)
Rangers (t-2nd ALW)
Mariners (4th ALW)
Mets (5th NLE)
Braves (4th NLE)
Astros (6th NLC)
Pirates (5th NLC)
Padres (5th NLW)
Rockies (4th NLW)

Rule 2: Must have had more than 100 losses in 2012)
Twins (102)
Astros (108)
Padres (101)

Well that narrowed it down a bit!

Re: Boston Red Sawx: A Rebuild of the Red Sox

Danny sat in his office trying to figure out who could be behind this when all of a sudden Tom Werner busts thru the door.

What's this I hear of you going after propsects instead of MLB players?

Uh Tom, don't you think we should hold off of the majors 'til the deadline?

No, I want MLB ready players now.

and Tom left. Danny knew that if this string of murders by Lackey and his boss continued, Tom would be next. After him would be Ben Cherington. Then it would be him, so he tried to find the master culprit before he got his hands on him and his friend Ben.
