  1. The kid's on cruise control so far.
  2. The kid just blew away Pratt with a high FB out of the zone.
  3. Nice clutch hit by the Captain! Bases clearing double.
  4. Didn't Hudson walk a bunch of people the last time he faced the Sox?
  5. No, I wouldn't send both, but I might give them one and Pedroia. If Lester keeps pitching like this and Hansen comes up and does well, a good part of the problems will be solved. I am just saying that the Sox may not have the luxury of waiting very long for them to start to contribute.
  6. Why, are you studying abnormal psychology?
  7. You might be right, but can we agree that if Schmidt goes for two prospects, the Red Sox should be involved.
  8. Loretta hit it to the wrong place. You can't hit it to Andrew.
  9. Jaret Wright being Jaret Wright. 3-3 in the 4th with 0 out and bases loaded.
  10. The kid looks good so far.
  11. Wait, what if someone gets him for less than three prospects, you won't answer then?
  12. Gonzo is a better fielder, and he does have a tendency to get some hits in big spots, plus he has a little pop.
  13. I disagree that no one else will pay the price for Schmidt, and when and if they do, you'll have to answer my questions.
  14. Thanks Edit: It's one thing will can all agree upon. We want to watch the games.
  15. The football game went off, and now I have a notice that the game is not available in my area.
  16. Send a post when you get the feed. I'll do the same if I notice it first.
  17. By the end of the game? That's friggin outrageous!
  18. Isn't Schmidt in the last year of his contract. Why wouldn't SF want to get something for him if they fall out of the race?
  19. WTF Why am I not getting this game on Direct TV?
  20. I have some questions that no one has addressed. Why would other teams be willing to pay the price of prospects for Jason Schmidt? Are they more willing to sacrifice the future? Is the Red Sox FO just smarter? If the Red Sox have the same or better economic resources and prospects as these other teams that are pursuing Schmidt, why wouldn't the Sox prevail?
  21. The moves made in this past off-season moves are causing me to lose confidence in the judgment of the FO.
  22. They can't afford to be giving away games pitched by one of their established major league pitchers, because they are at a disadvantage with the minor leaguers in the 4th and 5th slots.
  23. If Lester doesn't work out, they will have to move fast to get someone or they could easily fall out of contention. I think the FO should make every effort to win this year. They already have a high payroll, and Red Sox fans pay some of the highest ticket prices in baseball to support that inflated payroll. They owe it to the fans to put together a team that can go all the way. It's not an acceptable strategy to hope the current team makes the playoffs with the expectatiion that they will get annihilated in the first round. My 39 years of fandom has proved to me that it you can be building for the future for decades. When you have the opportunity to grasp for the brass ring, I think you have to go for it. If they win it all this year, they would have to rebuild the farm system somewhat. I am not selling our future, the FO created this dilemna by their really sucky off-season bullpen moves.
