Shoring Up the Rotation

[VA Sox Fan]

Nothing political. Kennedy's are known for hitting everything. They get involved with a lot of skanks.

 

Regardless, you are wrong about Taylor Swift. She is not a skank. FYI.

She seems like a nice girl. I just had to question her judgment dating a Kennedy.

[Youk Of The Nation]

I would do things to Taylor Swift that would get me excommunicated, and I'm not even a Catholic. And I don't usually like blondes.

 

Also, am I the only one who keeps seeing "Shooting up the Rotation" when I glance at the page?

Yes, but funny as hell!

Fair point.

[a700hitter]

I checked the PawSox box score to see if Ortiz was in the lineup tonight. He went 1 for 3 with 2 k's. Rubby De La Rosa had his third terrible start in a row. His ERA is at 13.50.

Don't know what the terms are to be considered a skank, but she's not an angel either. You can't even count on the fingers how many guys she has dated. She's not really that pretty either. There are so much better looking celebrities.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

She dates a lot of guys? That filthy harlot!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Doesn't automatically make her a harlot. I just said she's not an angel like everyone makes her out to be. She's probably dated more guys than Kim Kardashian. Makes sense, considering she has so many songs about ex boyfriends

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Why would dating a lot of guys preclude her from being an angel?

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I only brought that up, because someone mentioned she was a skank for dating someone. When I say angel, I don't really mean how she is. I was leaning towards she's not the type that doesn't date. Lots of people think Swift is like the perfect celebrity, and I honestly don't see why.

 

You could say the same about Kim Kardashian, although the sex tape thing was just foul. That pretty much ruined her.

[Bellhorn04]

I have very little opinion on Taylor Swift, and I think BTR is great, but I can't understand why he would use her as his avatar.

[BSN07]

If anything going through guys the way she does statistically gives us normal guys a marginally higher % of getting some Swiftness, for that she should be Sainted.

[Orange Juiced]

Username, I don't appreciate the inappropriate comments about my future wife. Everybody else, your support is appreciated and I'll be sure to tell Taylor whenever it is I meet her and propose.

 

The only downside, it would seem, about getting involved with her is that when the inevitable breakup occurs, she's going to write a real nasty song about you.

 

And on this theme, here's something pretty funny:

I'd take my chances of both that and facing BTR's wrath to put my sausage in her pink taco.

[Bellhorn04]

Katy Perry is more my type. That chick is stacked.

Yeah she's got some pretty eyes to go along with that nice rack.

Preach.

I almost forgot this was a "shoring up the rotation" thread Ted. I just hope that Papi is not real stale and his timing way off when he gets into the lineup. We know only too well what he is capable of not doing when he is not ready and hi timing is off. As for DeLaRosa, the guy IS a shank, male version. The guy is not worth much and I doubt if he ever will be. He throws and doesn't know how to pitch. The Dodgers lost nothing when they dumped him on us. Barring a miracle or unforseen circumstances he is going to be nothing but a white elephant to us.

[BornToRun]

I'm sure glad that the FO doesn't give up on young flame throwers as easily as you do.

[jung]

I would have loved to have seen Masterson back here in spite of his poor showing the other night. I would bet money that he would thrive under the watchful eyes of Farrell and Nieves. Whatever we might think of Tito, managing and handling pitchers was not his strong suit.

[Behindenemylines]

I wouldn't give up on DeLaRosa just yet. A lot of people said a lot of good things about his stuff before he got hurt. Plus the Sox are in no rush with him any way. Getting rocked in AAA is no big deal. It may take a season at AAA for him to get his s*** together.

[Dojji]

Not too concerned about the rate stats of a pitcher just now coming back from TJ. Even if I didn't think he'd improve, I'm not counting on him for much this year any way. De la Rosa is a longer term project.

Perhaps not BTR but you have to keep in mind that I've seen this guy pitch two years ago out here in Los Angeles and he wasn't impressive then at all. His ball was flat, he got behind the hitters and he got hit pretty hard. Yes, he is still very young, has a very live arm and could develop but he looks to be the same pitcher he was two seasons ago, plus he lost some velocity because of TJ surgery. Pedro Martinez thinks he may be a comer so, like you, he disagrees with me as well. Well hopefully I'm wrong, wouldn't be the first time nor the last. BTW, I hear Alan Webster has been called up and will pitch in the second game of the DH tomorrow. He seems to have a higher upside.

[jung]

I think calling up Webster to pitch this game is a really interesting development. Circumstances have really created so much opportunity for us to see young players play this year....JBJ, Iggy, now Webster. We have been so incredibly fortunate so far and have been treated to so much interesting and exciting baseball.

 

Funny how the organization could not buy a break the last couple years. So many of their marketing efforts fall on deaf ears mainly because the core product was just so unappealing. Now, they seem to land in a bed of roses no matter what they do because the core product is so appealing.

[User Name]

Fred, how many times did you see De La Rosa pitch? Did you see him enough times to make your take on him meaningful?

 

Also, you're going against everything reported about the guy. Supossedly he's lost no velo after TJ, and his problem has been regaining control of his secondary stuff.

Im sure that makes you happy.

 

Why is he a white elephant for us Boston Redsox fans? The Redsox got your hometown team, the Los Angeles Dodgers to take all our trash. If he does well, great.....if not....well, we are still 13-4 and your Dodgers are 7-8 right now.

 

I love the fact that you were so wrong about Cherington, you look pretty ridiculous at this point. You trashed them all offseason......every move he made, or didn't make you were right there to bitch, moan and complain, meanwhile I defended him knowing that Ben Cherington got rid of Josh Beckett, and that single transaction made all the difference in the world.

 

Actually, its almost impossible for you to root for them to succeed after all the negativity you have voiced on this forum....for if you started actually rooting for this team as they are winning, you would just be simply jumping on the bandwagon.

 

Continue with you hate towards Cherington and the Boston Redsox Fred, it makes it all that much fun to be around

Fred is happy. The Red Sox are winning.

[SCM33]

So he jumped back on?

 

Wait until they lose a few.....then cherries will be an idiot again.

My Dodgers? f*** You, you gullible worthless piece of s***. You can keep this up but I'll be coming at you with a helluva lot invective than you'll be able to take. It's your choice shitface. You stop and this pissing contest will end. You can't be that f***ing dumb that you actually believe the s*** you're posting about me. If so you are one of the two most pathetic excuses on this board. And for the record turdman I said Cherington's signing of Napoli was a good move as was his signing of Drew and Uehara, but that slipped by your alleged mind. Keep posting this crap and I will answer in kind. What a putz you are.
