No pitching reinforcements. No OFers. We get to see minor league trash that not only lack MLB talent, but they lack brains enough to play fundamentally sound ball. Let's have another week of talking about Bobby V while the trade rumor sites don't even have a whisper of the FO doing anything.
Brutal. This guy totally stinks. He has nothing. Nice pickup, Ben!! Yes this was really an under the radar acquisition. There's a reason for that. Every other GM knew that he stinks.
We need an OFer. We really deserve to see an OF with 3 major league caliber players. Every night we have to watch either Repko or DMac. One is AAA and the other AAAA, but neither is MLB caliber. Is a major leaguer too much to ask? But by all means let's fixate on Bobby V's inane ramblings.
When Bill Veeck owned a team, he had a special night where the fans managed the eam by holding up cards. That must have made his manager feel good. I'll bet there was no 24/7 coverage about how the guy had his feelings hurt.
Is Repko a functional idiot? Dos he know the score and does he realize that the top of the order was coming up behind him? Same fundamentals as Francona's group.
If Bobby had done what we all knew needed to be done and taken Lester out after the 2nd inning, this would be a close game. As I have said numerous times, as a whole baseball managers area very stupid lot.
