  1. We can't get beat by a guy called Chi Chi.
  2. This is a great post. You let it all hang out. We know where you stand, and it is as good an approach as anyone else's. If people want to criticize you for it, screw them.
  3. If Sandoval is 50 lbs lighter, he makes that last play.
  4. As an interim, I don't think it matters much. i haven't thought much about a full time replacement. Spud, you know that I don't have much regard for the whole lot of them. LOL!!
  5. Thanks RSFL for putting a positive spin on it.
  6. Rarely, but it might make them feel like s*** that they cost him his job. They deserve to feel like s*** for the way that they have played, and he deserves to be fired. There's no downsided to firing him.
  7. Who made the threads for those games? We need to have him/her make more threads.
  8. Let's see if we can get a 3 game winning streak. We haven't done that yet.
  9. He should see the season through, but if they are in the same place at the end of the season he has to go, and his career in baseball will be finished. Edit, Farrell should be fired in season if for no other reason than to light a fire under some asses in the clubhouse.
  10. I have 45,000 posts that say otherwise. LOL!! Pathetic.
  11. Time to shake things up. Go Sox!
  12. Excuses excuses. This crapfest that Ben is turning out for the third year in 4 years at the helm is starting to hit them in the pocket books. The have already opened up new subscriptions for season tickets which they have not done in around a decade. They are coming up with new ticket marketing techniques etc. Once the bottom line is affected Ben will be gone very fast. JH and LL know that prolonged terrible performance by a premium franchise can cause lasting financial damage to the franchise.
  13. Whether a deal is great, is decided after the results are in. If Rodriguez was a bust, no one would care much as we only gave up our 7th inning reliever. If he turns out to be good, it is a great deal.
  14. Ben needs to figure out which of these kids is for real with the biggest upside and install him in our rotation. The other one should be packaged in a trade for Cole Hamels. That would get this season back on track and would differentiate us from the rest of the ALE.
  15. if Rodriguez is the Real McCoy, it was a great deal for a reliever. In that case, there was a bidding war for Miller and Ben played it right. He should have taken a similar tact with Lackey instead of accepting used spare parts from the Cardinals.
  16. "Errand Boy" is kind with the junk that he has run out there this season. I don't think that I am being harsh. If they finish last in 3 of 4 years, that will be a record of futility that none of us have witnessed in our life times. You would have to go back to the 1920's when they were playing in a half burned down ballpark to match such terrible results. I call him an errand boy, because I have checked his resume, and there is nothing distinguishing in it academically or professionally. They rewarded a loyal assistant with a job that is way over his head IMO. If this season continues like this, the fault is at his doorstep.
  17. I was thinking the same thing. Why would Porcello go away from his bread and butter -- the sinker? It doesn't make sense, and his transition to a power strikeout pitcher is not having good results.
  18. Lol! Hamilton gave him whiplash.
  19. I went to the Mets game to see Matt Harvey pitch. I never give up on our boys. I was following on my phone. Wright's results were not bad against a hot offense. How did he look?
  20. Marcus semien is having a good season. He's eligible at SS, 2B and 3B.
  21. Not much of a game thread. Did anyone watch the game?
  22. I really think this is wishful thinking. He is just as likely an errand boy whose loyalty has been rewarded with a job that is over his head. There is nothing in his his education or work resume that would indicate a high level of intelligence. I am pretty sure that he would get smoked in TalkSox Fantasy. Lol!
  23. Kimmi, if you are so positive about a last place team, your head must be spinning when the team is on a good run. LOL!! If we didn't have hope, we couldn't watch. Keep the positives coming!
