Players We Haven't Been Drafting

... 5. Chien-Ming Wang. Personally, any pitcher who can't sustain a 6+ K/9 is undraftable in my eyes. Wang gets big bonuses for playing on the Yankees, so the manager with the pinstriped glasses thinks he's a lock at 18-20 wins each year. Drafting for wins is stupid. Ask Tim Wakefield how that 2003 Red Sox offense helped him get wins. The Sox scored almost 6(!) runs per game that year, and Wakefield sported a 114 ERA+, only good for 11 Wins. Derek Lowe pitched much more poorly than Wake and got 17 wins. Don't draft wins, and especially when the guy doesn't get any strikeouts ...

Sox bring back Wakefield
Published 10/31/2008 at Extra Bases
This should hardly come as a surprise, but the Red Sox have exercised their 2009 option on pitcher Tim Wakefield . A formal announcement was made by general manager Theo Epstein this afternoon. Though Wakefield pitched poorly in Game 4 of the American League Championship Series against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park, allowing five runs in 2 2/3 innings, he remains one of the best bargains in baseball. The 42-year-old has a unique rollover contract that guarantees him an annual salary of $4 million each time the club picks up an option. When the Sox do so, they immediately ...

ALCS Game 4: Wake to the rescue?

... this game, here are some quick stats about tonight's match-up: Wake is 7-4 with a 3.10 ERA at Fenway this year... compared to a 3-7, 5.14 line on the road. He hasn't thrown since his final start of the regular season on September 28th. In that outing he blanked the Yankees for 5 innings, allowing just 2 hits while fanning 3 and walking none. He's 19-5 with a 3.332 ERA in his career against the Rays, but he went 0-2 with a 5.87 ERA in three starts against them this season. Wake owns a 6.36 ERA in the postseason ... if you take away the 9.1 innings and 10 earned runs during ...

Tim Wakefield (2-1, 4.03) vs. Nate Robertson (1-3, 6.82) Okay, so maybe tonight is the night Detroit's new lineup clicks and fires.  (By the way, don't mention the word "fire" around Jacque Jones right now.  Might be a little sensitive.)   Tim Wakefield faced the Tigers in Boston about a month ago, and held them to one earned run over five innings.  However, he also walked five batters that night, and the chances are that Wakefield rack up some more walks tonight with that knuckleball.  ...

... - Jackson earned a dubious distinction in his last outing by allowing 14 hits against the Angels to tie a club record for most hits allowed by a Rays starter in a single game. Jackson surrendered four earned runs in 4 2/3 innings to take his 15th loss of the season. He is 1-1 with a 5.48 ERA in six appearances against the Red Sox. Tim Wakefield - Aside from the two home runs he gave up to Frank Thomas, Wakefield pitched well in his last outing. Overall, he gave up seven hits and four runs over six innings. But in three September starts, Wakefield is 0-1 with a 12.08 ERA. Tropicana Field should be the perfect place for Wakefield to rebound, as he is 9-0 with a 2.16 ERA there lifetime.
