  1. Nah, teams are not pitching around Ortiz. Not at all.
  2. I blame SFF. He was always building him up last season.
  3. And Red Sox Nation will gleefully laugh and mock at your Yankee stupidity 5 years down the road after crying for 4 years as that pitcher owns us . Haha! The joke is on you. I love torture followed by delayed gratification!
  4. Heck, I'll criticize the manager when things are going well. That's what he is there for. Managers are hired to be fired as they say. In the meantime they get criticized. I don' t feel sorry for them as they are a bunch of half wits that get paid very handsomely to make out a lineup card. Ah duh this is hard, where should I bat Ortiz and his 19 homers? Should I bat the .125 hitter after him? Should I take my starter out after 7 runs? What inning does the closer come in? THis is hard.
  5. That is the term that I would apply to ignoring your chief rival and competition.
  6. You lost me after the first sentence. The Yankees got 4 stud years out of C.C. with a 7-2 post season record and a World Champioship. I find no solace that the end of his contract is marred by underperformance. It doesn't erase what he did for the Skanks. Similarly, it upsets me to watch Ellsbury playing for the Yankees in his prime. I expect it will upset me to see Lester still in his prime pitching with the Yankees.
  7. True. That site is no longer user-friendly. It used to have a lot of useful info. I think they tried to get people to pay for it, and people didnkt sign up.
  8. Thanks Pete. I saw that and there were stats with the lineup too. That was a nice addition. The VA lineup thing is a mojo thing. I saw her online last night. That is why I asked the question. It is unlike her to be online and not post in a GT.
  9. BTR runs for the hills when the team is going bad.
  10. Ridiculous. Can't harp on Peavy for this game. There is nothing wrong with 6 innings and 2 runs.
  11. Hey YOTN, would I be misusing the term "ironic" with relation to Drew breaking up the no-no?
  12. It's not free. I herd that he cries every time he cashes a Red Sox check.
  13. His career ERA over 5 seasons in almost 5. He stinks.
  14. Because he is a gritty gamer who yells at himself on the mound. He is that competitive.
  15. Sweeney doing what he does best-- giving up bombs.
  16. Hey VA, where the heck were the lineups for my gamethread?
  17. Jed Hoyer at the game with Darnell McDonald. Now I understand why Theo keep giving DMac major league jobs.
  18. He might be the only one. And I don't think he catches it. He plays pretty shallow and I don't think he can get that ball without slamming into the wall. No one playing his first game at Fenway, Bradley included, gets that ball. Cut the kid a break calling that a misplay, maybe on the carom, but that wasn't going to be a single.
  19. We can't let this recycled trash own us like this.
  20. The misplay. Lol! Most CF's don't catch that ball. And if it doesn't get caught it is going to be a double.
  21. But it will not be easy. That's the Red Sox way.
  22. Mookie is going to triple into the RF corner and bang a double off the Monster tonight and Bradley's days with the big club will be numbered.
  23. What year was that?
  24. That caliber of prospect just does not excite me when it means losing Lester. Avisil Garcia, Mike Olt? Not for me. That's just a signal to your team and fans that you have thrown in the towel. It doesn't scream out that there is a commitment to the future either.
  25. Who was the top 100 prospect in the Peavy deal?
