August 19th vs. New York (AL)

Come on 700, where are you. You say the above, when this was your first post regarding the subject:

 

 

 

 

 

Now you go silent when caught in a blatent lie---it's like arguing with a 6 year old

Caught in what blatant lie? You are incredible. Find a post where I thought it was okay for the Yankees to get Abreu. I pretty sure I had some prior posts where I complained about it, but you do the research. You won't find any posts where I thought it was a good move not getting Abreu. But take your time and do the research, before you call me a liar. What next... will you accuse me of just bringing up the Damon issue? I have been called a broken record on that one. It's been banned as a topic.

I think his first language is French. I think he said that before if I remember correctly. If I'm wrong I apologize.

 

thats right im french, and i have no clue what sodomizes means

[a700hitter]

Ok, enough of this worthless arguing. Money is the prevailing factor (please read all of my post ) however the logjam was an additional problem that we need not create to fill a hole that we didn't have. The main thrust of my argument is that we have other needs that need our attention and don't need to toss all that money at an area where we don't have a problem.

If that was the main thrust of your argument, then you shouldn't have spent so much time on the logjam argument. That is very poor debating strategy. You argued it so much that Riverside jumped in and took up your cause.

2 innings left this looks like another loss for the sox

Pretty much expected at this point. There's no hope left.

Here's the POS Abreu.

[MANNYHOF24]

Why does Beckett suck so badly, I mean he shouldnt be this bad its frigging horrible. Everybody but Manny sucks right now

[MANNYHOF24]

I have been gone all day, who did Van Buren replace on the roster

[a700hitter]

I still can't get over the 9 walks from Beckett. :wtf: That's like a little leaguer's pitching line.

actually loretta has been pretty good to lately, but yeah alot of people are sucking now

Hopefully, he learned something from Schilling's work ethic this year. Curt is having an excellent season despite losing a little pop on the FB.

 

Beckett strikes me as a guy who coasted prior to this year on pure talent. Not focused. No plan. I hope this is a wake up call.

Seanez got DFA'd :clap:

This could end up being a very bad trade when it is all said and done.

finally some good news!

FOr all front office haters, what would have you done differently? Be realistic now. Remember you can't just waste money.

 

I mean, the Beckett deal looks like s*** now, but at the time, and for the start of the season, it looked great. Any GM would've made that deal.

 

It is easy for you whiners to complain in hindsight, but most of the things the FO has done looked great at the time, but have backfired.

 

So what would've you done? Trade Alex Gonzalez for Albert Pujols? Trade Coco for Andruw?

 

A lot of you are whining about Damon, but come on. Before these three days, no one really felt it was a mistake.

 

I can't stand this site. Too many whiners and three years olds with only short term memories.

 

This is exactly what I'm too lazy to type. Excellent post.

[RedSoxRooter]

I'm now a ballwasher by the way.

[MANNYHOF24]

This is a sad excuse for a baseball team

[ORS]

39 runs in 3 games. Brutal.

[redsoxrules]

since beckett has signed that deal he is 1-2 with a 6.67 ERA not including todays game ,so its even worse and he has not pitched more than 6 innings since either

[RoyNHSox]

The kid in the stands who threw the ball back looks like he has a good arm. Can the Sox sign him?

[RedSoxRooter]

39 runs in 3 games. Brutal.

Congrats on post 6000.

[redsoxrules]

and theres the 12th walk by boston pitching today

Any Gm would have traded 3 great prospects for a pitcher who has under achived in his career and has injury problems and never pitched a full season. I always thought we should have resigned Damon. I also would have traded Hansen, Lester and Coco for Oswalt.

I was just about to say that.

 

I'm getting another headache.

Getting one more pitcher - no matter how good - would not have saved this team. And it's not like the Sox really had a chance at Oswalt anyway. You guys who bring up the Oswalt case amuse me.

And there's the 13th. This is very depressing.

[schillingouttheks]

I'm going to the game tomorrow. I hate myself because I have a feeling I'm going to vomit and cause myself unnecessary stress by going.

 

Look on the bright side guys...it's almost football season...

[Optimist]

I just got in.

 

How did Posada get a triple?! And a stolen base?!

[Optimist]

The Red Sox are losing 13 - 5 and they make Manny's HR the play of the day. That's odd.
