The fact that they play that f***ing song when we're losing just pisses me off so badly.

[Brennan]

I really hope that there are a lot of empty seats at Fenway for the last 2 months of the season. That's the only way the fools in the FO can be shamed into changing the direction of this team. Let them enjoy crowds of 10' date='000 pink hats singing Sweet Caroline as the team is getting its clock cleaned.[/quote']

 

As long as they can sell the brand at a decent profit then they will keep it on life support. Only when that starts to give out will Henry put the baseball funds into yet another hobby.

[jung]

Sweet Caroline won't sound so sweet when it is echoing off of 15,000 empty seats.

 

It will be very hard for the FO to avoid the truth of what this team has become. I am going to bet that they will go into a shell....leave all public comments to BC. You won't see or hear from JH or LL or TW at all....won't even see them in the owners box anymore at some point. Public comments from BC will likely be few and far between as well. Really I think those two starts back to back by Lester and Beckett were the end. That broke what was left of the team's spirit and intensity. All that is left is the ashes.

[SemperFi Sox]

Cherington should resign.

[jung]

Oh my God....Hughes as player of the game....that is embarrassing by itself. He did not pitch that good a game...we just totally sucked everywhere...pitching, fielding, hitting we just sucked.

[SemperFi Sox]

good times never seemed so good.

[SoxSport]

Poor judgement, not starting Morales instead of Cook. They wasted Morales with two innings of useless relief behind 3 runs. Good reasons why this team loses. The management sucks.

 

Watched the Olympics tonite instead of this crappy game. Why would anybody want to watch this team?

[Station 13]

FFS stop hitting Ross and Salty 5-6. Middlebrooks need to hit behind Gonzalez.

[Station 13]

Instead of telling Lackey to rehab in Florida' date=' they have him hanging around the clubhouse. Great idea FO!!! One of many great ideas.[/quote']

 

it's more of Lackey choice. the new CBA further protect these prima dona. Lackey could choose to rehab around the major club, and which he did.

There's only one thing that'll stop Sweet Caroline. That's if fans like yourself at the ballpark start snapping and trying to strangle people who are singing it when we're getting our asses kicked. It could happen too.

I'll just start yelling SHUT THE f*** UP!!! SHUT THE f*** UP!!!!!!

7IP 5H 3ER 1BB 5K. That's a pretty f***ing good line. I couldnt watch the game, but aside from three solo shots in Yankee Stadium, he was pretty solid. I think Grandy should have been, though. The Yankees have a real shot to drive the dagger home before the trade deadline, something they havent been able to do since I was in middle school in the early 90s. I am shocked that a team with this much talent has just quit at all levels. And Cherington saying he is a buyer is a joke. The sox have nurtured a farm system back to life, but aside from a few prominent names, they havent build the farm system depth to deal from, which means if they actually buy anything of value, their farm will come crashing down.

Yankee sites are all down again?

[jacksonianmarch]

You are a glutton for punishment, arent you Brennan

[Thunder]

I am in a market where I get both YES and NESN, and I usually watch Sox Yankees games on YES. Sox are usually good too. not this season. I might have to go back to NESN. Anyway, today, it's Sabathia vs Lester. 23-0 loss, maybe a no hitter mixed in.

[mvp 78]

Ciriaco at DH, Aviles at SS today. Great...

[SemperFi Sox]

Crawford is a platoon player

[jung]

So even last night's disastrous defensive performance by Aviles was not enough to convince the Sox that he simply cannot play SS on an everyday basis....staggering. Is Avlies yet another player they hope will play well enough to entice somebody to give up prospects for him? There is less chance of Avlies playing his way to success in that regard than there was with Youk. By the way, how many RH hitters can you have on one club that cannot see the ball low and away well enough to lay off of it or swing at it to waste it as opposed to being so ass backwards at the plate that they swing at it to pull it....Aviles, WMB, even Ross on occasion! Then there is the oft mentioned Mr. Crawford who has the same malady from the left side of plate. He may not try to pull that kind of pitch, the ultimate folly but he still cannot see it worth a damn, new stance and all.

 

The Sox are fast playing and trading and managing their way to irrelevance. I suspect the end will come very suddenly with attendance at Fenway plummeting like a stone and tickets available for almost nothing from season ticket holders desperate to get out from under their tickets. In fact, they are so bad now that I very much suspect that they have finally and irreversibly put next year's season ticket sales at risk.

I'll probably go to a few games in September when the price is right.

 

Talksox outing?

Do they have good wifi there so everyone could post on the game thread that day:D

[italstallianion]

Spoiler Alert: Yankees win, Red Sox fans don't care as they already gave up on the season.

Weeknight or weekend?

Valentine: Crawford on a four-day program where he gets a day off every fifth.

 

LMAO didn't he had an off day on Thursday? f*** you Crawford.
