J51	Harden - Anderson deal falls through		Lead	[-]
Posts: 405 07/30/11 9:52 PM Jim Crowell Staff Writer SoxProspects.com	Tags : None Per many sources. He's better than Andrew Miller. Edit: Trade is pending physical. Still only 29 years old and has a 9.2 K/9 and 3.07 BB/9. Extreme flyball pitcher so our OF defense should help him. Last Edited By: chavopepe2 07/31/11 5:53 AM. Edited 2 times.

Rookie Posts: 9 07/30/11 10:05 PM	I can't imagine adding anything to what everybody else will say, so let me be the ~~first~~ ~~second~~ seventy-eighth to wish Lars the best in his return to the West Coast. I feel confident that we're all rooting for the kid to do well (except against the Sox) and for Harden to stay healthy. If Buchholz can regain his health as well, it would be hard not to feel pretty good about the Sox' rotation going into the playoffs. Last Edited By: acread 07/30/11 10:15 PM. Edited 1 time.

(no pun or homo intended) Listen, Theo phan-boyz, your crazy spin can't hide the fact that Terry Francoma is a TOTAL MORAN, John Lackey not only walks too many people but also rapes, kills, and then eats kittens, and JD Drew actually died 2 months ago and is only playing as a partially-reanimated corpse. - BriantheTaoist

Anderson's trade value was down from where it was a few years ago. And its worth the risk to get Harden. Plus Lars didn't have a place on the Sox. Sucks for Pawsox fans tho lol. I hope this gives Lars the opertunity to play everyday in the big leagues. Hopefully, Harden helps us down the stretch.

How about both? Colon became Cy Young... Harden could reasonably become Sidd Finch.

Luna has been the backup first baseman. Wouldn't surprise me if he gets most of the time there, with the utility players (Spears, Sutton when he goes back down) getting occasional starts. There likely won't be a countermove until Sutton goes down for Lowrie's activation next week.

Haven't seen him pitch in quite a while but what happened to his nasty nasty slider?
