  1. Buehrle is rock solid and he should improve in the NL.
  2. It's about respect, not money. Idiot!
  3. Benji is up from his nap and he has a seat at the bar for Happy Hour!!
  4. Some might call him a boob.
  5. This just in. Benny Boy is taking a nap before Happy Hour. Those long plane flights really hit you on the 2nd or 3rd day.
  6. You are probably not too far off. I got suspicious when Benji said that they would be looking for bargains. Some posters were all enthusiastic about that as if our guys have some innate ability to spot bargains better that the other 29 GMs. Please ... what arrogance. The advantage of the Red Sox is financial resources. They could blow through the cap if they wanted. it's their only chance of filing their holes. Our scouting department is no great shakes, neither is our talent development or our coaches. We have one clear advantage, but they are indicating that they will not use it.
  7. The Sox are said to be in active pursuit of Eric Gunderson and Heathcliff Slocumb. Just kidding. I hope.
  8. And Benji is off yet in another direction.
  9. Hopefully, Theo signs this loser before Benji finishes Happy Hour tonight.
  10. It seems like Benji is off in too many directions with no focused plan.
  11. It looks like Buehrle and Pujols will sign very soon.
  12. Breakfast Buffet is closed. He's waiting to be seated for the lunch buffet.
  13. Benny Boy is still at the breakfast buffet.
  14. Another reliever about to come off the board and Benny is sitting on his thumb.
  15. Another reliever comes off the boards. I don't like Capps, but the once crowded field of relievers is starting to look a little thin. Earth to Ben, we have no bullpen... none, zilch, nada. Do something!!
  16. If the Sox have any thought of KRod in their pen, they had better look into it quickly, because he'll be a Brewer if he accepts arbitration today.
  17. Start printing the playoff tickets!!
  18. That's exactly what happened. The stupid pick mania. He had no market outside of the Sox. They lost all negotiating leverage by offering him arbitration, because he knows that he will be locked in for $14 or $15 million in 2012. He'll never accept 2/$18, not even 2/$20. If they had declined to offer him arbitration, they would have had him signed up for 2/$18 if not cheaper. These idiots let the tail (picks) wafg the dog.
  19. Ortiz shouldn't be holding up things. They should know that they will be paying him about $14 million in 2012, and move on to execute the rest of your plan. There is really very little uncertainty with Ortiz at this point. By accepting arbitration, he is Red Sox property in 2012. He can't shop himself to other teams.
