  1. For every Nava Jersey you can get a Middlesucks jersey at two-thirds off. they have to unload those jerseys before he gets shipped back to AAA.
  2. Nava continues to impress on both sides of the ball. Middlesucks needs to get shipped back to AAA.
  3. Useless since the concussion.
  4. can Middlebrooks get a big hit?
  5. Middlebrooks eeked over the Mendoza Line last night with the wind blown bloop double. Hopefully, he will start making some consistent hard contact.
  6. Probably a guy with minor league options.
  7. From just watching the games (way too many games for that matter), that was my strong suspicion. Thanks for those stats. They make a strong case for playing everyone in position. Eventually, I think managers will go back to standard defensive positioning. Right now, everyone is enamored with Joe Maddon, who in my opinion is an imbecile that one time filled out a lineup card with 2 third basemen and lost his DH for the game.
  8. I'm not a big believer in the shift. It is the flavor of the day among major league managers who all follow each other like lemmings. If everyone had been in position, that ball is an oiut. Davis clearly was having trouble with Wilson's heat.
  9. Is his ceiling Evan Longoria or Mark Reynolds.?
  10. Middlebrooks is doing his best to play himself out of the majors.
  11. It's tough to win extra inning games on the road.
  12. Is it just me or does this ex-Yankee trash cause us a lot of problems?
  13. Carp continues to produce. Maybe Napoli should take some children's tylenol and rest up for a couple of days.
  14. Ortiz hurts the baseball.
  15. Napoli left with illness? I am glad that he isn't injured, but really?
  16. You are treading on some dangerous TS territory by lowering your expectations. You are risking being characterized as a negative fan-- a blight on Happy Red Sox Nation.
  17. It looks like Buch will be pushed back until Tuesday at the earliest.
  18. Papelbon is much better than Bailey, but we have Bailey, not Papelbon so people need to get over it.
  19. You lose me here. If we have to go down the stretch or any prolonged period of starts with someone other than Aceves regularly taking the ball, we will be in trouble and the bullpen will get more overworked and exposed.
  20. There have been so many unexpected things this season. Nava's great performance heads the list. Who could have expected 2 1/2 months like this. Iglesias hitting. He has not had a ton of playing time, but his numbers a way beyond expectations. Carp has been tearing the cover off the ball in limited playing time. Salty has been extremely adequate maybe even good on both sides of the ball. On the disappointing side, I thought that Middlebrooks was a budding star who would have a monster year, especially after the 3 HR game. He is hitting under .200. Gomes has exceeded my expectations as a fielder, but he has been a non factor offensively.
  21. Thank goodness we hung on for the victory so I wouldn't feel compelled to bring up the fact that it was a tremendous mistake for the FO to let Papelpon (AKA the greatest closer in Red Sox history) walk.
