This is two straight poor outings from Felix. Although he pitched well vs the o's and the giants( giants not formidable what so ever), we saw through may, june, july, and in bits of august the best he can be , which is a 3.50 guy, but now hes up over 4. He does have higher ceiling than dempster and lester certainly went through a tough stretch, but lester certainly has a higher pitching potential than doubie. If they do go to the 4 when clay comes back, see ya later doubie and demp.

Yup..like i said...Farrell really does not have anybody to go to short of late innings....this is really a weak pen when it comes right down to it...saved by the starters and Ueh at the end.

Boy Eck is getting really good in the analysts chair. He still gives us info we don't normally get from an analyst especially about pitchers as they are pitching. But he has gotten away from that sort of gadfly thing that was hard on his credibility sometimes. He still has fun with it but he is no longer all over the map. I would not be surprised if he has the feeling or has been told that if he finishes out the year continuing to improve as he has, he is in line for the job.

Boy that is the first time I have seen a ballplayer take one of the big long sunflower seed tubes out on the field with him and chock a bunch down right from the bag. I am getting farther and farther removed from having any empathy with or for the modern baseball player. Being able to concentrate on where you need to be and what you need to be doing between pitches has always been a big part of the game, not stuffing your fat face. We were always taught that you have to be anticipating every possible situation between each pitch and you are not doing that while you are chowing down.

Seriously? Doubront has a bad start, the Sox are up 5 games in the division, and we're reduced to complaining about sunflower seeds? If that's what you're choosing to focus on, it should be a sign that everything is going to be fine.

You must not have been watching...it was the Yankee first baseman that was chowing down. But if your point is that I do not think the modern ballplayer takes as much focus out onto the field with him as they used to regardless of uni....you are correct. That is how I feel about it....with few exceptions like the guy at the plate right now...Pedey
