Wily Mo continuing to remind me of Dave Kingman.

$52 million for Pedro. $24 million for Clement. Saved $28 million wasted $21 million on Renteria. Net savings $7 million. Less $1 million wasted on Jason Johnson ( a total loss). Net saving $6 million. While he made a good decision on Pedro, he did n't spend the money wisely. He basically flushed it down the toilet.

That's a shame. I'll miss watching him pitch.

Brewers have just taken a 2-0 lead over the Cards in the 7th inning. If they lose today, they leave the door wide open for Houston. If the Stros win their last two, even if the Cards win tomorrow, they'll have to play SF on Monday.

He's had lots of arm problems. I wouldn't want him unless his contract was loade with incentives.

I agree!! He is not fit to carry the name Soxfan#1. "Number 1 Fraud" would be more appropriate.

You would think that with Manny in the lineup that Ortiz would want to play, because he might see some strikes and be able to add to his record.

It was post-life for him after the choking.

Maybe they thought that privately, but they never said that publicly. They played the public PR game that they were doing their best to put out a winning team, but they clearly didn't. It was indeed ugly. I hope they'll be back next season, but they'll need to be aggressive with trades and FA's if they want to challenge for a title next year. The kids are not ready to carry them yet.

I don't have anyone specific in mind and there isn't much point to throwing out a couple of names, because I don't know if they would be available. I think they should explore opportunities get a power hitting 1B.

Well that's true. I never thought that was a realistic possibility. If the Padres wanted to get fleeced, I would have had no problem with that.

http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/headtohead/player-matchup Youklis is not such a big upgrade over Millar. I'd like the Sox to pick up a stud lefty first baseman with some pop, and use Youk in more of a platoon role with some time a 3B and an occasional game in LF at Fenway.

Wrong guy again. I still want to keep Loretta. JSinger wanted to DFA him in the middle of August. Maybe that is what you are remembering.

You got the wrong guy. I was defending him going all the way back to ST.

I just love to watch Lowell play defense. The guy is almost flawless. Foulke continues to throw well. He has put together an impressive string of outings. To bad he did n't get healthy earlier. His velocity hasn't been bad. I would n't mind this Foulke in the bullpen next year.

He's young and really talented, and he's still learning. He's proven that he could go 200 innings in a season without wearing down. I will not mind at all having him in the rotation for the next 3 or 4 years.

I never said that anyone should be fired, but I do feel strongly that the FO should be held accountable. I think today many more people think the FO didn't do a very good job than when I started criticizing them months ago.

MDC's stock is falling. He hasn't looked good in some time.

Real baseball fans would enjoy it, but MLB and the networks would hate it.
