Had A Rough 2012, But I Think He Will Have A Come Back Year, Would Have Liked For The Sox To Have Signed Him.

Jimenez? Jurrjens? What is the difference? Flash in the pans? Maybe not but so many pitchers have a dominating year and then dissapear.

If I'm Jurrjens, I'm signing with Baltimore, where the odds of cracking the rotation are significantly better.
I wouldve loved to get him as a project and depth though.

Baltimore had a pretty quiet offseason. I wonder how they will do in 2013 especially with the AL East pretty much an even-level playing field.

Maybe based on the fact that before last year, he had 2 out of 3 seasons with a sub 3.00 ERA and and 1.225 WHIP.

Mets just got Shaun Marcum for 4 million plus 2 million in incentives. As a whole, I have agreed with what Cherington is doing, but the Dempster deal is looking worse and worse every day.

All I know he pitched a complete 1 or 2 hitter last year in Fenway. A-Gonz, Papi, and Middlebrooks were still in the line-up.
Smart move by Duquette.

It might be 50-50 who does better: Dempster or Marcum.

Im guessing injury history, only threw 200IP once. basically Im guessing that they wanted someone a bit more durable.

which is exactly why I do not see why we spent so much on Dempster when Marcum was there for so much cheaper.

If Marcum pitches 200 IPs, he'll almost certainly be a better value. Anytime you see all these teams pass, there is usually a reason.

OTOH, if we had waited this late in the off season to snag a Marcum or Jurjens, a whole lot more screaming would be going on

Call me an optimist, but I think Dempster will do just fine.

FWIW, Jurrjens also pitched in Bangor, Maine in the Sr. League World Series when he was 16 or 17.
