    Ah, but I spotted him as a problem on a play that he was 100+ feet away from the play. Lol! No one would have seen it on TV and few people at the game picked up on it. Edit: By the time I saw him making or should I say butchering plays, it was pretty comical.

    After Porcello's last out, his ERA sits at 5.02 with one scheduled start left in 2015. Do you think they might sit him out to preserve the 5 ERA?

    Lol! Don't forget that these old expert eyes spotted Hanley as LF trouble in my first spring training game.

    Another Hanley Triple goes into Bradley's glove for a routine out.
  5. a700hitter
    Xander choked.
  6. a700hitter
    Hanley would have played that third out into a Triple.

    Porcello is insisting on finishing the season with a 5+ ERA. Another gopher ball.
  8. a700hitter
    Then who do you think leaves? There is no room for 2 new top of the rotation guys and Porcello, Miley, ER, Kelly, and Buch.

    Kicking the crap out of Pineda. 6-0 Sox in the first inning.
  10. a700hitter
    I didn't read that anywhere. He should have taken the interviuew. A prolonged family vacation is not a good idea.
  11. a700hitter
    oh? I don't think that I gave you much of an argument on that. I never understood the deal after having signed Pablo.
  12. a700hitter
    told me so? I never would have given Crqwford $143 million. That was an insane overpay.

    if they can unload him like Crawford got unloaded, the Crawford signing would probably win the boobie prize.
  14. a700hitter
    That is more about his groupies than him.

    i have nothing against Theo. He made some bold moves in 2004 which were just what that team needed. I never thought he was a very good negotiator when it came to giving out contracts as he tended to overpay. He's not our GM anymore so he means nothing to me. He's not even in charge of a team in our league. He's irrelevant as far as I am concerned. The only reason I even know his name is because he used to be our GM. I couldn't name the GM of any other team in that division.

    The worst Red Sox FA signing that I can remember by any GM.
  17. a700hitter
    i get it. You are convinced that he is a genius.
  18. a700hitter
    Win!
  19. a700hitter
    Yep. He went through a whole insane ritual when he entered the game.
  20. a700hitter
    He gone!

    If the Red Sox were to sweep the Skanks, it could put a lot of pressure on the Skanks this weekend. That would make Ben's Shitshow of 2015 worth it.

    Hanley had a chance to showcase himself at first base this season and earn a spot with the team next season. Reports are that he has been swinging and throwing pain free for a while, but that he wasn't comfortable enough at first base to play in games. I guess that he was afraid of embarrassing himself. That's surprising as he didn't seem to mind looking like a clown in LF. Could he have looked worse at first base? His reluctance/refusal to play first base this season has probably guaranteed that he will be gone by next season. There is no way that DD opens camp in 2016 with a defensive experiment with Hanley. He will not risk the failure and embarrassment that in large part cost Ben his job. It just isn't going to happen. The only chance of Hanley being on the 2016 Red Sox is if they move Pablo and Hanley plays 3B. I think that is a very remote possibility as diving for balls at 3B would likely put him on the DL with his chronically bad shoulder. The Hanley deal may be the worst signing by a Red Sox GM in my memory.

    The altercation was the only interesting thing in the Nats September. Papa is one big guy with a crazy look. I always thought that his crazy look on the mound served him well. Crazy is good for a closer. Do you remember the Mad Hungarian!

    How much trade value do you think Allen Craig has?
  25. a700hitter
    Third place team. You can't pick your division.
