  1. Clinging to a position that is clearly wrong erodes your credibility. This guy will finish the season with more than 30 bombs playing in a ballpark that is tough to hit HRs, plus he has a gun for an arm. His OPS is higher than our $22 million slugger. But yes he sucks, because our FO has no patience with young players.
  2. Reddick hit his 23rd Home Run tonight.
  3. If I had zero hope, I wouldn't watch. It's baseball. Anything can happen, but I am not expecting it to happen.
  4. The first 35 thousand go very quickly.
  5. I'm trying to cling to some hope.
  6. And in the next 3 games our pitchers will get to face Joe Mauer who will hit balls all over the park. This team is just a mediocre mess.
  7. There is no need for a pitcher not to go after our hitters. Without Ortiz, we don't have any established power hitters. Yes, WMB is strong, but without AGon hitting the long ball, we don't have anyone that scares a pitcher.
  8. This guy has not had to break a sweat against us.
  9. Lester is not an ace and this is not a game where our offense is raking.
  10. They have to work this pitcher over.
  11. I don't think we will bash them into submission all 4 games. Our pitchers will have to do their part. Rookie looking play from Kalish.
  12. I think he will be okay. I picked him up in a sell-low trade for one of my fantasy leagues. The guy who had him is known as a mush. He drafts good players who turn to s*** every year, so I was very concerned when he drafted AGon and Lester in the first 2 rounds... And rightly so. Hopefully, getting him away from that jinx will turn him around.
  13. :lol: It gives me something to do.:lol:
  14. If that is the case, then they should just cut him. If he can't start and he can't pitch in high leverage late inning situations, then he should just get released. I think the Red Sox believe that he can still be effective in late innings so they are trying to get him back on track. He wasn't really as bad as a meltdown freak show in September 2011. That's a bit of an exaggeration.
  15. He's in Fort Myers now. They can send someone to watch him pitch down there. They should be able to judge how he is throwing without putting him in a minor league game. Also, I didn't say that he should be thrown into the rotation. I said let's see if he has any bullets in his gun. Preferably, they should see this in a low leverage situation or two out of the pen. Holy crap back at you.
  16. Have you ever heard of a figure of speech? There comes a point where a players performance is unacceptable and he has to go. Lowe has reached that point with the Guardians, and I am hoping that Cook meets the same fate with the Red Sox. You are an incessant nit-picker. Stop it. They both suck. That's the point. And I disagree with putting him in Pawtucket. Cut Cook's ass now. Bring Lowe here to see if he has any bullets left in his gun. If not, adios.
  17. But so far they have only put Crawford and Punto on waivers-- no one else.
  18. So, we are going to pick nits over degrees of s*** now? Neither one's pitching has been acceptable recently. We already gave Cook a chance. He blew his chance by giving up 6 HRs in his last 3 games. We can give Lowe a chance.
