    But the O's will not go away.

    Russell Martin with the walk off HR against the A's in the 10 the inning.

    Let's not forget the phony website that he tried to put over on MLB.

    Brandon Moss hit his 19th to tie the Yankees in the 9th inning.

    CC is acing up unlike our guys.

    He had been in Boston and the results had been pretty consistent with this year's product. No one is talking about getting him back. Edit: He had comparable production while playing for Toronto too, or doesn't Canada count.

    Who will be our second baseman in 2014. Pedey is starting to show wear and tear. In 2 more years, he will be on the downside. Lester will probably be shot by then too, so add second base and another starter to the list of needs.

    So, we will be suffering like this until 2015 or 16?

    How long do you think the team will be rebuilding before it goes back to the playoffs?
  10. a700hitter
    So Scutaro's full season of production in 2012 that is in line with his production since 2009 is not as good an indicator as his partial season at Colorado? If that is what you are saying, it makes no sense.

    rim shot.

    Greinke has done very well in the heat of a pennant race with the Angels. The concerns about his makeup based on an anxiety issue that he had several years ago are overblown in my opinion.

    I agree that he will want to finish as a Yankee, but if they make no move to sign him and he feels disrespected, he may want to prove them wrong. You never know. Could it hurt to court him in the off season? Never mind whether he would want to end his career elsewhere. The answer to that is clearly no, but he may not like having the door shut in his face. From a Red Sox perspective, would this be a good move?

    If a team pays a guy expecting a certain level of production and the guy produces to that level for the life of the contract, it is hard to argue that he is overpaid.

    As much as I would like to see the Sox ruin Showalter's season, I'd rather see the Y*nkees suffer. This whole season has been one big s*** sandwich. We will probably be subjected to watching the Skanks clinch against us in the last series of the year.

    I have read that Soriano can opt to walk from the Yankees after the season. After the year he has had and the failure by Robertson to step up, I suspect that the Yankees will try to retain Soriano. Mo Rivera has stated that he will be coming back. I'm not so sure that the Yanks will want him back if they commit to Soriano. Food for thought: should the Sox make a run at Mo again like they did a couple of years ago?

    Scutaro is better than both of them. He's like Pujols compared to Iggy.
  18. a700hitter
    Are there mid-tier Hall of Famers, because in the end, he could make it there?

    With the payroll flexibility that they have, they should be able to field a contending team if they make the right moves. Here are our vacancies as we go into the offseason: First Base-- Maybe they go on the cheap with a Gomez/Loney platoon for 1 season Shortstop-- It doesn't look like Iglesias is ready to hold down the job LF 4th OFer 2 Starting Pitchers 1 Quality Reliable End of the Bullpen Arm I think they have the payroll flexibility to fill almost all of these needs through freaa agency or trades. I don't have much confidence that they will make these moves.

    In 6 years as Red Sox closer, Papelbon never gave up 5 earned runs in an outing-- not once. Bailey is off to a great start breaking new ground. I guess he feels that he belongs now that his ERA has been inflated to almost 7.
  21. a700hitter
    Anyone that thinks our pen will be strong without adding to it has not taken a close look at the late inning and close game numbers. I am not sold on the injury prone Bailey being the next Papelbon. He s*** all over himself tonight in his only real pressure situation this season. Aceves may need a change of scenery, and he is not a reliable closer or 8th inning guy. He is a good flex/long reliever. We need to bring another strong arm in house, because we don't have one in the organization yet. Maybe Tazawa develops like a Robertson, but I wouldn't hand him the 8th inning job just yet. Let him go through the fire next season and win the spot.
  22. a700hitter
    Bailey not looking like Paps successor.
  23. a700hitter
    They deserve the 2012 Red Sox.
  24. a700hitter
    She's watching. She's not posting, because she doesn't multi-task very well.

    Bush league scrub Nava with no patience hacking at the first pitch.
