  1. It is baffling to me that the Sox are playing at almost a .600 clip and we are tied for second place behind the Yankees who are old, battered and bruised. WTF!
  2. I am going to miss having a catcher that can gun down base runners.
  3. Lavarnway has been hot in Pawtucket.
  4. What are you talking about? Turning backs? WTF?
  5. They are going to start stretching him out this week. He has been limited to 50 pitches up to this point.
  6. They are treating Bailey with kid gloves. I think they are on pins and needles about him staying healthy. He hasn't even thrown off a mound yet. He has been tossing on flat ground and moving back 20 feet each session. They want to get him to 150 feet before the get him up on a mound. It could be a while before he is back closing. We should have quite a few late inning horror shows before he is back. IMO, they should look to get a healthy closer. If Bailey returns, he would be a nice set up guy. If not, they still have Uehara and Tazawa for the 8th.
  7. Even this lineup without Papi should have enough to beat up the Jays starter. Who the hell is Jenkins?
  8. Ellsbury is still in the lead off spot and Papi is getting a rest.
  9. A good article analyzing the cost of replacing Papelbon: http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/2013/05/the_rising_cost.html
  10. He wasn't a fit for us. no one is asking that. He was our discard our trash and he is providing tremendous value to our arch-enemy. If Nava hadn't played so well, I would have been frosted that we didn't send Nava down and keep Overbay just to keep him from the Skanks. A blind man could see the Yankee move a mile away. They had no first baseman. He had no place on our team.
  11. Napoli will get $13 million if he stays healthy. Overbay will make $1.25 million.
  12. Better value-- Napoli or Overbay?
  13. and their idiot manager tried his best to hand us the game.
  14. Ells needs to be put in the bottom of the lineup till he gets his act together. Farrell needs to understand that the lineup is not written in stone for 162 games. BTR, you s*** the bed today.
  15. Time for Ells to earn his money
  16. More stupid manager tricks.
  17. Melky is such a tool! Thanks Melky!
  18. Cablevision stinks. Maybe they have added it. I'll have to check. Have you always had NESN or have they added it recently?
  19. I hope you realize how unhealthy this is^. Although it is not as unhealthy as watching our late inning bullpen for the last 2 seasons.
  20. You knew the door was slammed most games if we had a lead after 7 innings-- sometimes after 6.
  21. It's nice to have a catcher that can throw out base runners. That has been like an endangered species on the Red Sox for about 10 years. I feared that it was extinct.
  22. They need to send someone to see Brian Wilson throw.
