Tough break… pun intended, but it still sucks for Uehara.

The Justin Masterson injury.. Koji should have never been in that game, only Masterson did what he was good at.. Putting runners on base.
No more with being DFA’d, though too late for Koji unfortunately.

Get better soon Koji… can’t wait to see Papi pick you up 90 times next year after wins

The mistake of the Sox not trading him at last year’s deadline keeps going

It’s doubtful it would have been worth it since his contract and the fact that chapman and kembral were kinda out there.
snazzypants
That’s true, but it’s also important to remember that both of those teams were on the fence about rebuilding. The Red Sox would’ve had the best reliever on the market by far.

Chapman and Kimbrel are still out there for winter trade possibilities, keeping Koji gives them a piece to build around to remake the god-awful bullpen for 2016. FO wants to be competitive.
jakesaub
I think the reasoning was that the FO still wants to be competitive in 2016, and the Red Sox have absolutely no reliable arms in the bullpen past Koji. It at least gives them someone to build around for the winter if they’re going to re-make the pen.

Reminding me more and more of 2012. Lousy season and players dropping like flies.
jakesaub
Good. Then we’ll win the World Series next year.

Why didnt they trade him at the deadline?

The world might never know?
iverbure
man that was a bullet line drive that hit him, Uehara was the kinda of guy I thought the red sox were going to sell at the deadline.
