    Welcome! What part of NY are you from?

    Aceves spring ERA is 5.50 and Bard's is a Lackey-ish 7.23. It is not encouraging that with one week left until opening day that we still don't know who will be the 5 starters and that the choices for 4 and 5 are not very good at all. Maybe everyone's pitching is this thin? I don't know.

    Aceves line of the day: 6 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 4 K, 87 pitches, 54 strikes.

    He is the brother of our top prospect.

    He wasn't an expert about pitching. He was an expert at hitting pitching, but not pitching. When I saw Teddy Ballgame at Cooperstown when I went up for Yaz's induction, I was awestruck, but I've done a lot of reading about the guy, and he was a blowhard. I still love him, but that doesn't eliminate the warts.

    Blashemy!

    Bill Lee was a left wing nut job, and that never bothered me. I still like the guy. He was a great competitor and a Yankee killer. For that, he should hold a special place for Sox fans, and his legacy pales next to Big Schill's. Like I said earlier, no one was a bigger blowhard than Ted Williams. I guess the great icon was just lucky that he didn't play in the days of 24/7 news cycles and the internet. He's still on a pedestal for me.

    These manufactured feuds between Bobby V and Cherrington and now the supposed terrible impact on the team made by Schilling is just so much ado about nothing. I'll bet more that 20 of the guys from the opening day roster don't even know what he said, unless some idiot from the press quotes him in a press conference.

    No one is right 100% of the time, not even me, but Curt Schilling should be above criticism from every Red Sox, no matter what he says. When some other player helps bring us two championships in a 4 year career with the Red Sox, I might consider knocking Schill off that pedestal.

    Any team that gets distracted by the opinions of commentators is just looking for excuses. I'm not big on excuses. What Schilling says doesn't matter. What Shaughnessey and all the others say doesn't matter. This talk of distraction is ridiculous.

    Obviously, Bobby V needs to take heed of what Schill says. Schill is a winner. Bobby V has never won anything.

    The rotation is thin. I can't optimistically overlook that. Even if Bard and Doubront can do the job for most of the season, I am not comfortable with Cook, Padilla and Ohlendorf backing them up.

    He'll always be right. Save your breath. I do find it funny that people don't like him because he is a blowhard. He's soft spoken compared to the great icon Ted Williams. He was as loud and as big a blowhard as any player in the history of the game. Schilling doesn't even come close in that regard.
  23. a700hitter
    Let me come right to the point. Schilling is right and you are wrong. It will always be that way, so cut your losses.

    What a joke!! I guess Cherries didn't see the need for a medical evaluation.
