Coop has been very good at fixing problems on pitchers that have a lot of talent but can't translate it to the field. Maybe Jackson will be his next reclamation project?

Phil Rogers hates every Sox trade. Fuck him.

He also pitched for the offense challenged Dbacks

That's why we're talking about FIP and xFIP, they are independent of the team's defense and offense.

Look, we got hosed. We made a bad trade, yeah it sucks, but what can ya do. Just hope Jackson can get those walks down and stop serving meatballs.

Gavin Floyd was a big project from Philly, Coop can fix EJ if EJ is willing to work. He fixed Matt Thornton with ONE SESSION!

People just look at stats & say oh he sucks!

Might wanna realize the shit team he plays for!

I don't see how we got hosed at all. I think this is going to be a very good move both for this season and beyond. What we gave up are kids that don't have this guys skill level nor passion. From what I have read about this kid his enthusiasm is going to be contagious and should make the guys relax and have some fun, not that they aren't having any fun now kickin ass and taking names.
