No, I stand by my statement that but for the good fortune of Wright becoming an overnight success, this is a .500 team. That was my original statement which you disputed.
There used to be an announcer in NY who used to show the turning point of the game and then would say "you could turn off your televisions right there."
With Sale on the mound, that could be the case right after the first pitch.
First 2 pitches == a Homer completely out of Fenway and a a double off the wall. The only no-brainer about Clay is that he sucks.
please Babe, cut the crap. Half of your so-called dynasty of the 90's had to pull the needles out of their asses while they were in the on deck circle.
My point is that I agree with Spud in that I don't think it is much better than a .500 team. I was a little reluctant to go out on a limb like you to make the point that the team is currently 39-30.
