Theo Epstein Quotes
For the first time all year, we believe he has velocity. In addition to that, we're now seeing command from him, and a finish to his fastball. Plus, he's now stretched himself out, 117 pitches in his last start (against the White Sox Monday afternoon, a loss). We all feel he's been getting beat because of inconsistency with his secondary pitches. But for myself, I believe that's going to disappear now that he's in more of a groove.

We'll see how the roster shakes out, but we could also send him down and let him get some at-bats to get himself straightened out.

It was a fair trade because there was tremendous talent on both sides. The Red Sox are getting more established talent, but the Marlins are getting tremendous upside talent and affordable talent. One side was paying a lot more money in exchange for the more established players. They weren't perfect prospects and we weren't getting perfect players.
