  1. He's gonna kill himself the way he dives around.
  2. What we have seen the last two nights has not been the Yankees falling apart. They are in no danger of falling apart. What we have seen are two very evenly matched teams going head to head in very exciting games. An ALCS between these two teams should be very exciting.
  3. Who the hell is Jake McGee, and why is he pitching in a big game like this?
  4. Tampa takes a 7-6 lead. Hope of keeping it interesting re-emerges.
  5. StubHub
  6. Need an OFer with a big stick too.
  7. Granderson isn't quite the proven HR hitter as Ortiz. Also, Granderson missed a lot of games with a injury.
  8. 2008 he had a wrist injury that usually requires surgery. It basically took him until June 2009 to fully come back from that injury. Seasons with injuries are not good indicators of a decline in skill. This year has been pretty special in that he didn't have much support around him.
  9. The decline with a big guy like Ortiz doesn't usually come in 6-7 HR annual increments. There is usually a sudden precipitous drop off followed by a quick end. If next year isn't that year and he ends up in Yankee Stadium, be prepared for the possibility of 40 bombs almost entirely against right handed pitching. That's one scary platoon player.
  10. He's hit more HRs this season than last season, so where are you getting the 6-7 HR/yr decline?
  11. I would be. He'd probably launch 6 or more bombs against just Lackey and Beckett.
  12. I think he takes 2/18. I think 2/12, he walks to the Bronx. Would the *******s boo him if that happens?
  13. No one sees the possibility that if the Sox lowball Ortiz and try to get two years from him for the cost of the 2011 option that the Yanks might swoop in and give him the full option amount for 2011? With that porch he'd hit 40-45 just playing against righties.
  14. At least the press is writing about it. So much of this season has been about stupid play and poor fundamentals. There is no excuse for it. That is the fault of the manager and the coaches. The other big variable not related to injury was the horrendous bullpen. That was the fault of the FO. The last line of the article indicates that Ortiz was not too happy with last night's half assed effort. The guy doesn't like losing. The fire still burns for him. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/
  15. Rivera with 2 innings on Friday night is back out there again tonight. Why?
  16. Salty is not even a good backup catcher. Theo needs to give up on him like the Rangers and the Braves did.
  17. Nava PHing for our #2 hitter. Symbolic of how pathetic the Sox have been this season.
  18. Control has been an issue that had plagued Bard in the past. This season so far he has put that behind him.
  19. Suck-my-assia leads off the 8th with a helpless AB striking out.
  20. More classic stupidity by the 2010 Red Sox. A base hit to LF where Hall bobbles the ball. Instead of realizing that the play was lost at the plate and keeping the tying the run at first base, he heaves the ball home to the catcher that can't catch. The runner goes to second base. The next batter singles to tie the game. f***ing stupidity.!! The trademark of the 2010 Red Sox.
