  1. They have a nice set up with the pathetic Stros for 3 more games before we go on the road. This fast start is more than I hoped for. I just didn't want the team to bury itself in April like they have for the last 3 years. A little over .500 would have made me happy. Jumping out to a start like this gives them some cushion to withstand some injuries to the pitching and still be competitive. If the pitching stays healthy, it could be a very very enjoyable year, but I don't want to get ahead of myself.
  2. I missed Bard. What was his velocity?
  3. With Aceves on his way out the door and Steve Wright stinking like 3 day old fish, we have one depth option for the rotation--- Webster. I hope the rotation takes their vitamins and stay healthy.
  4. How are they going to get PT for Lavarnway, Salty and Ross?
  5. Aceves down, probably going to get traded. Lavarnway up. Are we going to carry 3 catchers, or is a bigger trade brewing? Is there any news out there on this?
  6. We should steamroll these guys.
  7. You asshats will be messing with mojo. This is the best start we've had in years. If we go into a tailspin, I will hold you personally responsible, and bring down my wrath upon you.
  8. Gomes is very inconsistent from year to year. He can have some stinky seasons.
  9. I sense some frustration in your post. Is Strasburg on one of your fantasy teams?
  10. According to Boston.com, Aceves is blaming everyone and everything other than himself for last night's debacle. Tough guys stand up and take the heat. Aceves is not a tough guy, just a psycho.
  11. I'd say yes if I were Cherington, but no if I were the Marlin GM.
  12. De La Rosa last night pitched 3 scoreless innings giving up 1 hit, 2 walks and 1 k. An improvement-- a small step.
  13. Command has always been an issue for him.
  14. I wouldn't trade Stanton for Webster if I were the GM of the Marlins. I wouldn't trade him for Webster and Bradley either.
  15. Stanton is a bona fide stud power hitter. Webster is at most a "potential" ace. I read someplace last week that after 4 or 5 innings his stuff falls off a cliff. He did give up two bombs around that time. Papelbon could go through a batting order once, maybe twice and then he would get lit up. That is the reason he went to the pen. There is no guaranteed ace status for Webster-- far from it. Stanton is already a bona fide major league star.
  16. He no longer has the big time gas. He'll be toast unless his command is perfect.
  17. Aceves and Wright were complete garbage tonight.
  18. He was better than my first baseman or third baseman.
  19. Victorino is our best OFer without question.
  20. Just begging for funny nicknames.
  21. Us old guys just crap ourselves if we laugh too hard.
  22. That doesn't sound racial. I haven't heard racial stuff at Fenway since 1978 and that was a f***ing Yankee fan yelling a Rice.
  23. It's the walks with him. It's always the walks. He was very lucky that they didn't bite him too badly tonight. 5 walks per game is playing with fire.
  24. Does Youk have his annual back spasms? If that's it, he'll miss close to a week, but his back will be okay the rest of the season.
