    I was definitely disappointed that the Sox didn't land Santana. I never would've looked back, because Santana would have helped win two more championships. There was nop urgency for management to pull the trigger because they had just won twice and the Yankees withdrew their offer. Red Sox management didn't want another high priced guy.

    Johan Santana for Ellsbury was a missed opportunity. He would have been the difference this year, and probably next year too.

    Remy called the last two games embarrassing. That's why I like the Remdawg. He pulls no punches. He tells it like it is. Hopefully, our lilly white racist team will not humiliate us Caucasians. f*** Ken Rosenthal. I hope Red Sox management bans the prick from Fenway.

    Last year the Red Sox faced Sabathia, Carmona and Westbrook in games 5, 6 and 7. This year we would be facing Shields, Kazmir and Garza. I don't think they are any tougher than the Guardians pitchers.

    The defending champs should not be getting bitch-slapped like this. Really, who the hell are these bums wearing the Red Sox uniforms?
  7. a700hitter
    Time to give Ellsbury an AB in a meaningless situation.
  8. a700hitter
    Seriously, this 3 game beating has to be some sort of record.
  9. a700hitter
    At least put up a fight. These games must be setting a record the most one-sided three consecutive post season games in history.
  10. a700hitter
    It's like we are using whiffle ball bats and they are using supercharged titanium.
  11. a700hitter
    There you go again.

    If the Sox were to rise from the dead once again to win the Championship, Yankee fans would be lined up to jump off bridges all over the NY area.
  13. a700hitter
    Pathetic Yankee fans are obsessed with the Red Sox. Pathetic.

    They are dominating the Sox. It reminds me of a game that my son played in the 7th grade. His team was so far ahead that when he hit the ball to the next field we stopped all the runners after they advanced one base so as not to humiliate the other team. Is there a merecy rule?
  15. a700hitter
    Nah, If we only had Schilling.
  16. a700hitter
    This Tampa team is just manhandling the Sox. It's getting to the point that they are embarrassing our Sox.
  17. a700hitter
    Everyone of us could see this type of s*** happening to Wakefield, but management expected something else?
  18. a700hitter
    I don't care about how he eats innings and blah blah blah. He sucks and he has n't been able to take the ball to give 200 innings in the last 3 years. Get rid of him and get a real pitcher.

    Whenever they cut to Rosenthal during a game, I always have the same comment. He adds absolutely nothing to the broadcast. He never has any interesting information. His rumors are almost always unsubstantiated and turn out to be wrong, and he is not the least bit entertaining. I am convinced that he is married to a network executive's daughter. Plus, he is a short ugly midget. Edit: I guess he must be trying to get himself a controversial image (like Howard Cosell) to get himself some sort of distinction. Cosell, however, had a brain, good sources, and a very distinctive voice.

    He's very large, but for his frame, he is not very fat at all. His legs will go, but I don't think they will go as fast as Mo vaughn's. Mo was a fat slob.

    Ortiz will produce again. Also, let's not forget that they played very few meaningful games in September 2006. If those games had been critical to a playoff berth, he would have been pitched around quite a bit more. I am not saying that the injury is not a major factor, but the absence of Manny makes his situation worse, because he is seeing more offspeed stuff and he is committing earlier because of the injury. There is more than one force at work here resulting in his below par performance. I don't think it is fair to conclude that he is in a decline due to age or injury yet. We need to see how he bounces back next season. If healthy, I expect that his HRs will be down from the 40+ to which we have become accustomed, because he will be pitched differently, but I expect that his OBP and BA will remain high.
  22. a700hitter
    We all agree. Is there anyone in Red Sox management discussing this with Francona?
  23. a700hitter
    His 7 HRs in September were down from 10 in August and 14 in July when Manny was in the lineup. He's a great hitter, but even greater when Manny was behind him.
  24. a700hitter
    Does he realize that Coco is on the team and that he plays CF?
  25. a700hitter
    I would guess that it Youkilis's line in the last 2 post seasons. I would also say that he benefited from batting behind Papi (this year) and behind Manny and Papi (last year) rather than that they benefited from batting near Youkilis. He is an excellent hitter, but he doesn't carry the fear factor of the other two. After a couple of more years like this, he might have that effect on pitchers, but he is not in that class yet.
