  1. That is so cool that you saw Teddy Ballgame play and hit a homer. Were you old enough to appreciated that you were watching a baseball god?
  2. I can't see how having Clay Buchholz for his usual half season is a luxury in any sense. DD made a mistake not getting another starter, It is as simple as that.
  3. Those baseball gods are a fickle bunch.
  4. I didn't get to Fenway until the 70's but I listened to and watched those late 60's teams. They were some bunch of hitters. I was very sad when Hawk Harrelson got traded and then when Tony C got traded a couple of seasons later. Unfortunately, they had no pitching in an era dominated by pitching. I remember pinning my hopes on Dick Ellsworth, Ray Culp, Gary Bell, Lee Stange and then later Sonny Siebert. I am still waiting for Jim Lonborg to return to 1967 form. Even though they never had enough pitching to compete, they were exciting to watch. Yes, lots of memories.
  5. Dempster was 36 years old and had already made $90 million. Craig is 31 years old. He has made $11 million in his career with $20 million more due from the Red Sox. Again, I think you are dreaming if you think there is a possibility that he will walk away from that payday. If there is no possibility of him coming up to the big club, there is no possibility of him rebuilding any value, so the Red Sox should just release him. They are just wasting his time and their time.
  6. Another win in the books!
  7. If they had traded him after exercising his option, they would have had $13 million to put toward another starter.
  8. Ortiz is a one man wrecking crew.
  9. I really expected to see more of this from him as he looked lost in Spring Training on pop ups. I have been very pleasantly surprised so far. He has handled all aspects of first base very well.
  10. No error on that by Hanley, but it should have been caught.
  11. Papi, dogging it on the dribbler to the pitcher. That annoys the hell out of me. Hustle man!
  12. He is fine coming off the bench.
  13. He played it like it was a hand grenade.
  14. There is no need for a phantom DL for Buch. He will get a real injury and he will be done for the season.
  15. What is the word on Shaw's wrist?
  16. I am not biting. Let's move on. This played out. kudos.
  17. I said it was a good troll. No insult. read the thread again. He never takes any kind of position.
  18. You are off your game.
  19. He got me because I am bored today. What is your excuse? LOL! I have to admit that it was a good troll. The mark of a good troll is that you can never pin them down on an argument, because they never really take a position on anything. kudos
  20. He was a mess by the end. He had played out his shelf life and he knew it was time to move on.
  21. I have known some mirror twins.
