  1. Not before July.
  2. I think it should be painfully obvious to all of us that Theo left this team in a bad budget bind. The owners will have a dilemna. They'll have to decide whether to stay within the constraints of the luxury tax limits and go salary neutral in their moves. If they choose that path, I truly think we will not be watching any meaningful baseball in September. Their alternative is not an easy one- break out the money go over the cap and make a strong run at the post season. Personally, I hope they do the latter. I don't think JH wants to finish out of the post season for a 3rd year in a row.
  3. With over 700 consecutive sell outs, I don't think the FO has to worry about making decisions to appease fans. We haven't exactly formed a protest mob and decided to Occupy Landsdowne Street or Yawkey Way. Unfortunately, the Red Sox have only 3 starting pitchers and their farm system is not going to produce any starters in 2012, so what are their alternatives besides acquiring starting pitching through free agency or trade? I'm not seeing any alternatives.
  4. I'm not joking. I'm mocking Joe Pa and Penn State.
  5. They took away his keys? Wow!! That's some tough love. Please pardon the tasteless pun.
  6. Where was it available?
  7. I think it will be something low profile like a bullpen piece-- not a major bullpen piece.

  9. This will be the first of two polls that I will post tonight.
  10. There was no video on demand in clubhouses for players to study in Mantles day, so I don't know how he was going to study pitchers. If there had been video in the locker room, maybe he would have taken a peek while icing his legs.
  11. Shame on him. You call the cops when you learn that a child is being sexually abused. You don't report it to your employer. Sorry Joe Pa, but you messed up huge and disgraced yourself and the University.
  12. There are two groups-- those who have accurately and correctly assessed the situation and what needs to be done and those who have incorrectly assessed the situation and what needs to be done. There are those who are right and those who are wrong. It has nothing to do with optimism, pessimism etc.
  13. As usual, you state the case more clearly and succinctly than I.
  14. I thought the centerpiece of the VMart was Masterson. I just think that getting a couple of draft picks for a guy of Papelbon's caliber is not something I would ever celebrate. That's just my opinion.
