  1. The FO needs to get some help for this team and not sit on its hands. Thos of you who think this is a temporary slump are in denial. We have been mediocre for some time already, and now since Schilling has been taken from the rotation, they are approaching full stink mode.
  2. With Gabbard going on Saturday and Wakefield on Sunday? I wouldn't be making any bets.
  3. That part was tongue in cheek, but if Theo is such a genius at spotting value players like Ortiz, he had Pena right in front of him to observe.
  4. Ortiz is still the money. Every one else sucks as well as 3/5 ths of the rotation.
  5. 20/20 hindsight? There are several posts from me in the offseason and ST where I recommended selling high on Youk.
  6. Losing two to these clowns at home is just unacceptable. 9 runs last night and 6 runs tonight. Yea for our pitching!
  7. We could have traded Youk for pitching help over the winter and kept Carlos Pena. Theo's keen eye missed that one I guess.
  8. but the two are going in differnt directions.
  9. Jackson, you will have 20 minutes to submit your reply brief.
  10. Yes, the same Helton that is winning my bet, because his road OPS is .30 more than Youk's. The bet was that Helton would not do better than .20 rooad OPS above Youk. They are going in different directions those two players, but that should be expected. One of them is an all-time elite hitter. The other one is a nice player with limited skills.
  11. Yes, the same Helton who is in terrible decline. Yes, that Helton.
  12. Why would we ever consider trading him for Helton.:dunno:
  13. Youk flashing his turtle-like speed. Why throw strikes to manny.
  14. you could see this coming all night long.
  15. Also, we should not be losing one game to thes chumps at home, never mind two. That would be disgraceful. What is your cause for optimism?
  16. If you haven't noticed, this team has not been coming from behind very well.
  17. f***ing Jays leaving men all over the bases. They are trying to give the Yankees the game
  18. Have you noticed that we are losing to the KC Royals and they beat us last night. Let's thump our chests and proclaim our team as the class of the league.
  19. I stick by my assessment of Pedroia in ST. Good hands, below average speed, average arm, below average power. His upside is Mark Loretta. Pretty dead on wouldn't you say. It has nothing to do with vet vs youth. You don't ever hear me criticize Papelbon, Beckett, or Ellsbury do you?
  20. If Youk put a big swing on this guy, he could reach the track.
  21. Are we going to blame the offense again if we lose tonight? No way KC should be scoring 6 runs. Nice HR for the powerless over the hill Ramirez.
  22. When I saw him throw in person last spring I was completely underwhelmed after hearing so much about him. There was no 95 mph heater, no pinpoint command. He walked 3 in a row and he was throwing upper 80's at best. I got beat up all over this site for my evaluation.
  23. He may only be a 5 inning pitcher. We don't know if his secondary pitches are good enough to get him through an order 3 times. He's an awesome closer. Why mess with excellence?
