4/7 @ Detroit

[VA Sox Fan]

Wow. Pretty mad about this one' date=' huh?[/quote']

 

Nice first post.

[a700hitter]

This team is complete garbage right now. Can't even score a run. Beckett looks like dogshit. Unreal.

Dude, it's the first weekend. We had to face the reigning MVP on Thursday, and the Tigers had two of the best sluggers in the game seeing Beckett's gopher balls today. This is what happens when you have too much optimism about everything. When adversity, comes and it always comes, there is a lot of disappointment. It won't all bee this bad.

[MANNYHOF24]

My only concern is with the way it ended last season, the fans, and media could crush this team down the toilet and make it a very negative atmosphere before they really get there bearings.

[mvp 78]

Anybody think we can get to Scherzer tomorrow?

 

Yes. For a team that works the count welk, there should be quite a few free passes tomorrow.

 

Buch will come out and show he's the real #2 of the staff.

Hope you are bringing some "come back" mojo 700!

[onlybereaved]

Yeah - We I am all about winning and losing with class. We can be classy while losing/being off to a rough start against one of the best teams in baseball.

[miggy24]

Eh' date=' at least none of our players were abandoned by their fathers and ate themselves truck sized as a result.[/quote']

 

Nope, they've just failed multiple performance enhancing drug tests throughout the years. :thumbsup:

 

Just funny how you personally attack Tigers players, when your prima donna pitcher just got rocked.

I really really hope this was a fluke was Beckett, and we are not looking at a prolonged DL trip.

Actually I would like to see them come put and scrap tomorrow. Ells try to bunt for a hit...something that wakes them up early and gets them into the game. They're asleep. Not moving runners...in the wrong places at the wrong time.....etc

Really don't want a repeat of 2001. That was a horrible summer to be a Sox fan.

[mvp 78]

Coco woulda had it.

[MANNYHOF24]

I bet Ellsbury just broke 4 ribs.

[BornToRun]

That doesnt sound like Boston media or Red Sox fans at all.

 

No, not at all. I now understand why Teddy Ballgame was such a prick to the fans. He had every right to be a douche to them and the media. I hope Dan Shaugnessy gets his ass kicked next time he interviews a Sox player.

[a700hitter]

I wonder if Beckett is going to be complaining about his thumb after the game. Personally, I would prefer that this was just a butt kicking by two heavy hitters and that his thumb feels fine. If his performance was affected by the thumb, we may have some bad performances to watch from Beckett this season.

[Brown28]

Why does Scott Atchison look like he's 50?

[miggy24]

Btw, I love the Sox. I always have, but making comments about Miggy dying in a drunken crash is a little much..

 

Leave that s*** to the Yankees.

[MANNYHOF24]

Holy Christ McCarver looks old!

[onlybereaved]

Aviles scared Ells off that catch

[SoxSport]

Bailey going down like that has really hurt. They were not ready for a fast replacement.

 

When you throw in the management discord, you have to be concerned.

I still say he'll be just fine, as insane as that sounds right now.

[Station 13]

That's because he is.

[BornToRun]

Jesus Aviles.

[a700hitter]

I couldn't be bringing any worse luck. This is brutal.

[MANNYHOF24]

Avelies has not looked very comfortable at SS so far. I thought his defense cost us a few games last September

[Brown28]

Hey, it wasnt a home run! Thats motherf***in' progress right there!

[mvp 78]

Jesus Aviles.

 

Shorter leash: Aceves or Aviles?

[onlybereaved]

Aviles is dead to me. He beats IGGY out of the position, and then plays like a AA guy at best. Everything he does is causing grief.

[BornToRun]

Shorter leash: Aceves or Aviles?

 

Aviles definately.

[Brown28]

Aviles. If Bobby V had his way, Iggy would be with the big club right now anyway
