  1. I long for mediocre as I am entitled.
  2. I wonder which of the deposed GMs will find new GM positions for next season.
  3. GTs have been neglected lately which is surprising to me since this is the best baseball that the Red Sox have played in almost 2 full seasons.
  4. Yep, I saw it. It put the Mets in a 7-1 deficit. I thought they were toast, but they came back to win. Everything is breaking right for them. Edit: I have seen a lot of Cespedes since the Mets got him. To put Hanley in context, Cespedes has looked like Willie Mays out their in comparison. Also, he has played some CF for the Mets. Go figure. BTW, Castillo has looked great in LF. I think he should be the Left Fielder with Bradley in RF. Last night, Castillo made several good plays in LF. He threw out Donnaldson by 15 feet on a line drive off the wall. He held runners at first and second on another wall ball. There were abut three plays that Hanley would have turned into a tour around the bases with the Toronto thrid base coach windmilling runners around. People think that LF is no big dea in Fenway, but if you put a bad fielder out their it can wreck game after game. Hanley may be the biggest cause for our terrible season right along with the terrible pitching.
  5. Oh,I didn't see that. I know Headley hs been having throwing problems. There was a play on a throw at 2nd that local sportscasters were blaming on Headley.
  6. Can't we all just get along? LOL!! We're playing winning baseball. Let's enjoy it. We haven't had this brand of baseball since 2013. If we had a bullpen, I might be onboard with Pedroia, Thunder and Kimmi about making the playoffs.
  7. The one where the ball hit him in the face?
  8. The Cardinals knew it, but Ben did not.
  9. This game should be Breslow-proof.
  10. Yankees drop their second in a row to the faltering O's.
  11. We are cleaning Toronto's clock. They have not been used to this since the trading deadline.
  12. Yanks are trailing in the 8th inning 4-3 after an 8th inning HR by Pearce.
  13. The parade of pigs will commence. Hopefully, we keep adding to the lead.
  14. I am glad that UZR and DRS agree with my assessment of XBs fielding. Otherwise, I would have to question the validity of those metrics, because I have watched almost every inning of every Red Sox game and part or all of about 100 other games.
  15. Congratulations on going wire to wire in the regular season. PM me and let me know your address and how you want to be paid.
  16. I don't think he could surrender more HRs if he placed the ball on a tee/
  17. Can anyone think of one good reason why Ogando has not been released. Does it serve any purpose having him in our bullpen except as a reminder of the failure of this team's season? Is he the best bullpen spoon player? Maybe he is the conductor? Seriously, ship his ass home. Is there a stat that shows that he should be regressing to some mean.
  18. Thunder and Pedey are on the same wavelength.
  19. They are the under 5'"10 versions of Lynn, Rice, and Evans. Those guys were specimens. We have a disproportionate number of small players. Is that something the scouts look for these days? Personally, that body-type would be a negative for me in scouting anything other than middle infielders. I want small agile middle infielders. I am not a big believer in outfielders under 5'10".
  20. Because history shows that major league outfielders with all their limbs shouldn't be as bad as Hanley. Of course every other major league outfielder has lots of outfield experience and scouting before they put him in the OF. They don't just pluck a guy with no experience and plop him out there. It was negligence period.
  21. I'd hate to part with Betts too. I never like trading fill time stars for a pitcher. I'd prefer to trade Bradley.
  22. I don't think Harvey had 2 surgeries.
  23. Nice run, Kimmi!
  24. Ogodno is worse than Breslow.
