They Got Him

Welp, they signed him. AJ is in pinstripes and they just spent $243.5 million dollars on 2 pitchers. Yeah, I said $243.5 million dollars, wait, let me make sure I didn't fuck up, $243.5 million dollars. Yup that's right $243.5 million dollars. A.J. had a great year last year.........but,

4 starts in 2003 missed the rest of the year with good ol' Tommy John.

Came back in 2004, but had to shut her down in September due to a elbow injury.

2005 he wasn't really hurt. Record of 12-12 with a good era 3.44 (I'll give him credit here)

Then.....awe shucks started out 2006 on the Disabled List with arm problems, he came back...but in April against the good old Red Sox was removed due to some, you guessed it, arm pain. Ended up on the DL for a couple more months.

2007 A.J. missed 48 games while being on his now common list, The Disabled List, twice.

2008 he apparently got his finger stuck in a car door in the offseason, finger injury, but he did have a good year with 18 wins. (2008 made him some money)

He basically had one really great year, last year.

If the trend continues, over the next 5 years in New York..........

I predict:

1 healthy year

9 trips to the DL

97 games missed.

1 time getting his finger caught in a car door.

ERA over the 5 years about 4.63

11 will be his average games won over 5 years.

2 years with winning records.

1 punch in the face by Youk after Joba throws high and tight during a previous game and AJ tries the same thing.

(notice to reader: these trends may change as the writer's calculations are based on a lot of cheap beer and anger that the Sox haven't made a splash in the off season)
