Matsuzaka 1-2 looks like a bust for Boston?
Question:With Daisake 1-2 how do Boston fans feel about their busted 100million dollar mistake. YANKEE NATION!!
Answers:
Who is the biggest cheater in baseball history?
How does it feel to have no clue what you are talking about? The only reason his is 1-2 and not 3-0 is because the team has scored no runs for him so far. He has an ERA of 2.7, he is second in the league in strikeout with 24, averaging 8 strikeouts a game, and has look ed excellent. He has looked great so far, if the team only gave him some runs. How does it feel to be another ignorant Yankee yahoo who doesnt pay attention to the game?Anyone interested in a Live draft tonight at 8:30 pm EST?
heeeeeell no are you kidding? he only gave up 2 runs in his recent loss...thats nothing! i think its the red sox's lineup's fault matsuzaka lost, they only provided him with 1 f*ckin run daisuke's losses were out of no run supportand RED SOX F*CKIN NATION!!!!!
It's a little early to draw conclusions
How do u hiit the ball far in baseball?
OK, this is coming not as a boston fan, but as a baseball fan. Dice-K is nowhere near a bust, he has been getting no run support. Look at the stats: 2.70 ERA, 20 IP with 24 K (10 in 2 of his last three starts) only 5 BB and 1 HR, the most earned runs he has given up so far is 3 in one outing, and he lasts longer than any Yankees pitcher, who currently has one of the worst team ERA. Enough said.How can i set up a target in my yard to help with my pitching. Something that will stand up.?
I hope you're joking, otherwise you're giving Yankees fans a bad name.Any baseball fan with an understanding of basic statistics realizes that win-loss record is among the worst ways in which to evaluate a pitcher. You're talking about a guy who has had three quality starts, a WHIP of 1.10, a 2.70 ERA, and 24 Ks against only 5 walks. That's better than you're going to see from any Yankees pitcher.
I'm a Jays fan, and I was impressed with Matsuzaka's performance last night. I thought he got a generous strike zone, but he still had nasty movement and good velocity. He's going to be a good #2 guy for them all year, and will probably turn out to be their best pitcher.
What if the Minnesota Twins were as rich as the Yankees!!?
I hope you reealized that Matsuzaka is better than any pitcher the Yankees have, first of all. Second, come talk your crap in October when the Red Sox, Twins, Tigers and Angels are in the playoffs and the Yankees are sitting home watching.Who is the guy who sits right behind home plate at the Red Sox home games?
Not even close. The Sox aren't playing particularly well, and Matsuzaka will end up winning somewhere around 18 games for the club. That, on top of over 175 Ks, should be enough to garner consideration for AL ROY (even though he shouldn't really qualify).Why do some people think Armstrong never cheated but Bonds did?
In both losses he kept runs to a minimum.just wait...once the bats warm up the Sox will be kicking butt!I don't know if losing 2-1 and striking out 10 makes him look like a bust.
But I do wonder if this guy knows how to win a ballgame. Reminds me of how Pedro Martinez used to shut down the Yankee offense... but always seemed to find a way to lose against them.
he was good in japan but he doesn't have nothing yet here in america! he will shap up quickly though and make a big name for himself just like ichiro did!
Who was the better baseball player: Willie Mays or Mickey Mantle?
Are you serious? He has pitched in 3 games...do you know how ridiculous you sound? Considering that in his loses he has had virtually no run support (Felix Hernandez 1 hitter and last nights game Boston scores 1 run). I dislike both the Yankees and the Red Sox equally so I have no bias either way. We'll see who made the mistake when the Yank's don't make the Playoffs this year and more than likely finish third in the division.Why isn't Vern (Junior) Stephens in the Baseball Hall of Fame (or at least up for consideration)?
It has only been his first three starts. You sould feel bad for the Yankees bullpen. Everyone is injured and you all have to rely on a bunch of rookies who SUCK!! GO RED SOX!Are the d-backs for real, at 7-2? are will they choke as year goes on?
You must remember that he has NOT been getting any run support. No pitcher can win if no one gives him any runs to work with.I mean, a run point run? What's that all about?
Will Ken Griffey Jr or Sammy Sosa get to 600 hrs this season?
It is too early to tell whether he is a bust or not It is only mid- April. That is the same thing as saying the Dallas Mavericks are a bust after getting off to an 0-4 start and are now 66-15.I know you are happy now but wait and see if you are in October.
Why are there no left handed second basemen?
I believe that you are getting ahead of yourself.He is fine and will only get better.
Don't be a hater.
Do you know any softball cheers? like hotter than hot? I need a BUNCH !!!!?
Matsuzaka has pitched well so far. Sure he's 1-2, but he hasnt allowed more than three runs in a start so far. He just hasnt had run support so far. Look at Dan Haren of the Athletics. He lost his first two starts despite having a sub 1.00 era. He's still winless with an era of 2.00. He's only had three starts. Unless he turns into Pedro Martinez, he's going to get run support sooner or later. But he's had three good starts so far and he's struck out alot of guys, given up few runs and has not been hit so hard, which are all good signs.Do stats (hr, sb, rbi) get wiped if the game is ppd?
I hate clueless Yankee Fans. How's Pavano, Mussina and Wang working out for you?Dice-K struck out 10 last night and he would have allowed 0 runs if Lugo didn't miss that ground ball in the 4th inning. He only allowed two runs in his other loss and the Red Sox scored 0! It's the Wakefield syndrome. Wakefield record last year would be over .500 if the Red Sox actually gave him run support. The Red Sox score an average of 1.5 runs a game when Wakefield is pitching.

How's your pitching rotation doing?Dice-K will show you how much of a bust he is this weekend.
How much are these cards worth?
I dont think he will end up a bust just wait till he pitches aginst the Yankees. Go Boston.Do you think this might be baseball in the future?
LOL LOL LOL i'm with you buddy! The great 125mil pitcher can't even win 1 home game,Funny how some of these smart @ss boston fans don't come in here when their team loses!!They only come in and talk @hit when they when,,,Ball game over, Blue Jays winnnnnnn theeeeeeeeeeeeee Blue Jaysss win!!! LOL LOL LOLDoes anyone have information on a la dodger penant with don drysdale on it, circa 1960's. thanks?
lol, he has thrown 3 gems noob. Twice as good as Zito for half the money.What is Dontrelle Willis record in the month of April?
I'm a Yankee fan who thinks that Dice-K is way overhyped, but I have to admit he's looked AWFULLY GOOD his first few starts. Hard to win when your team only scores a total of 5 runs over 3 games for you.how could u even say that he is a bust. he has a 2.7 ERA and 24 k's. He has just had some bad luck. He only gave up 3 against seattle and that game the sox got 1 hit. Yesterday he gave up two runs and might i add that he should of had strike 3 against wells but he still only gave up two runs and the red sox only got 1 run. if he got run support in his last two games he could easily be 3-0. By the way how is the yankees pitching staff doing now that they have musina wang and pavano on the DL
What does mean "rundown" on baseball?
He is just beginning a new life, new language, new teamates and had to fight against a superb King Felix, bot his ERA is very good and will imporve.RedSox is the best starting rotation in baseball
It's way too early on in the year to tell if he's gonna be a bust or not. Anyway at least he and the rest of the Red Sox starting pitching is healthy unlike the Yankees pitching rotation which has 3 out of 5 starters on the disabled list.
Whats the easiest way to get Ron Santo's autograph at a cubs game at wrigley field?
There's nothing new I can say showing how foolish you sound, with the stats to back them up.Speaking of stats, how's the great Kei Igawa working out for the Yankees. $26,000,000 just to talk to him. Now that's a bust.
And also, don't shame yourself by saying "Yankee Nation". That's stolen from Boston's "Red Sox Nation". Funny, the mighty Yankee fan copying from the "lowly" Red Sox. I guess things are just about at the 180 degree mark after all.
In your opinion, who is the most underrated baseball player?
The issue is not in his pitching, its in his run support. In the two times where he has lost, he has given up 3 runs, and then 2 runs. The second loss was a 3-hitter!he is pitching as good as anybody right now.
besides wins and losses don't really effectively evaluate how good a pitcher is
How important is the Manager in Professional Baseball?
You have to be nuts to think this...the guy has pitched his heart out and no way am I ready to write him off..if they don't score for him how can any pitcher win..look at Clemens last year with the Astros..love my Yankees but I would take him in a heartbeat.you could really see his heart when he had a bad inning last night..he came back strong and will get his share of wins!!.GO YANKEES!! STINKIN RED SOX!!Why is there such animosity between Yankees and Red Sox fans? Isn't it just a game?
A bit lacking in the analysis department here. Overhyped, perhaps. A bust? Far from it. From what we've seen from Dice-K this far into the season (it's early), I'd rather have him in our rotation over any of the Yankees starting staff. Rating a pitcher simply on how many wins he has tells you nothing about their performance. Based on this thinking, you're saying that you'd rate another pitcher (Pitcher B) higher than Dice-K simply cuz Pitcher B is 2-1, even though the 2 games (Pitcher B) won he walked 8 guys in 6 innings and gave up 12 runs, but won the game simply because his team put 13 runs up on the board?Who is ur favorite baseball player..y?
first of all, if you were a real yankees fan u would know that they call it yankee empire, not yankee nation, which sounds totally lame. second, dicek let in 2 runs, you call that a mistake? if he had run support, there is no doubt that he'd be 2-1Can you name a player that has been intentionally walked with the bases loaded?
Yeah, Dice-K is just awful (snicker). His ERA is hideous. Maybe we should get some pitchers from the Yankees or not! Go Red Sox!More Questions & Answers...
