What about the Sox strength and conditioning program? Ownership is looking to their Soccer organization for alternatives. There was plenty of blame to go around, and going back to your original post on this, whether Crawford turns out to be a bust has nothing to do with whether I wanted to get him. If he's a bust, it goes on Theo's record, not the fans.

If he is still under contract in 2012, the E1's wish to get him for 2012 really is a pipe dream.

Is Matt Cain a FA?

In fairness, he took over a team with a very strong core. They won the 2 World Championships in his first 5 years and nothing in the last 4 years. He missed the playoffs in 3 of the last 6 years. Theo's final chapter hasn't been written. A lot will have to do with whether Carl Crawford and john Lackey cripple this team going forward and how well Theo's last three draft classes progress. I don't see that his legacy could ever be one of failure, but his legacy is far from complete.

I hope Crawford is home in Houston and not reading the Boston press. The Boston Press is as out of control as I can remember them. It's like a feeding frenzy. This is not good for the franchise. The team had a terrible organizational failure with plenty of blame to go around. The organization needs to figure out how to fix itself. The ownership group is a savvy group that built the franchise into a gold mine. They'll figure it out. The press just can't resist stabbing these guys in the back as they leave. It's despicable and cowardly, because they kiss their asses while they are here.

I misread your post. I thought you were talking about 2011. Pedroia did break his foot on a foul tip. Varitek broke his foot on a foul tip and VMart broke his finger on a foul tip. I don't know if I would call Youk's injury an impact injury. He didn't tear ligaments. He tore a muscle in his hand which was kind of freakish. Wakefield was in bad condition in 2010. Beckett's conditioning was horrible in 2010. He couldn't get past 5 innings. Dice K was in terrible condition too. In general, our starting pitching was in terrible condition. Lackey was fat in 2010.

It was a stupid and pointless move by JH. If Crawford was feeling pressure to perform, knowing that the owner thinks he is overpaid isn't going to help him.
-
It should really help his confidence knowing that the owner was against signing him.

So you blame Tito? I guess you don't think it was all bad luck.
-
If you owned the team, what would you have done after the season ended?
-
Fate? Bad luck? One guy got fired and the other guy they no longer wanted. The owners are blaming some people. JH today said that he didn't support the Crawford signing. I guess he blames Theo.

So, in the days to come we should also find out that Lackey was Theo's call and that Theo had been playing the guitar during games and that he was doing coke. Let the smears begin.

I also thought the Sox would win the World Series this season or at least go to the post season. Didn't you, Red Sox Rules?
-
Yes I was.
