  1. Figgins is in Seattle.
  2. ...and they sent Aceves to Pawtucket, leaving the useless Wakefield to take up a roster spot. Gutless move. BTW: WTF are they going to do about the catching situation? Salty is a complete mess and Varitek is a fossil.
  3. Agon might as well pack his bats away for the rest of the night. He will not see another pitch with Scutaro batting behind him.
  4. Scutaro batting clean up between AGon and Ortiz. Ughh
  5. Let's jump on Chadwick and send him crying back to the Yacht Club.
  6. Kalish got injured at AAA:
  7. It's highly unlikely that he has a Spanish accent.
  8. Chatwood Chatwood III
  9. Sounds like a story created by some whiny Cub fans.
  10. Tyler Chatwood? Sounds like a white guy from the Larchmont Yacht Club.
  11. Yes. No one will take his contract and the Sox will not eat it.
  12. How did Buchholz look today? He's having trouble getting deep into games. Gotta love the Papelbon panic in the thread. He gets the k in the 8th with the bases loaded and everyone is panicking in the 9th. Lol! Jenks doesn't look like much of an alternative, but in a pinch, he could probably eat the opposing batter like a chicken wing and spit out the bones. Lol!
  13. Lowrie Wowrie!!!!
  14. Home Run Derby Clay.
  15. He got tagged after he popped up at the end of his slide. Ridiculous.
  16. Offensive stats, I would propose: Runs HR RBI OBP OPS I would also propose Lefty/Righty splits if the owner is going to run a platoon at a position.
  17. Which stats do we post? We should have an apples to apples comparison. I structured my team to platoon at a few positions, so I believe that I should post the applicable righty/lefty splits.
  18. Has Nova lost his spot in the rotation?
  19. On a positive note, Crawford's batting average went up.
  20. West coast games don't bother me unless they go to extra innings. I'm pretty much a vampire. On the weekends, I prefer the west coast games, because I don't have to rush home for a 7 O'clock start. On the weekends, I don't care if there are extra inning games that go until 2 in the morning.
  21. I'm not advocating that he be pushed out because of his age. I'd be advocating the same thing if he was 28. He just can't perform up to standards. There just aren't enough garbage innings in a season to justify a spot for him as the team is fighting for a playoff spot. Middle relievers need to hold a game close to give the offense a chance to get back in the game. He can't serve that function anymore. As for me being put out to pasture, if I couldn't do the job anymore, I wouldn't want to continue. In my job, there is no room for failures. I can't field issues at a .970 clip and expect to keep my job. Mistakes cost the company millions. If you make them, you are toast. That's the cold hard truth, and it doesn't matter if you are 30 or 50.
  22. I agree that the Sox should have a day to honor him, but I don't think he meets the criteria to have his number retired,
