I agree, I don't know if I see him really coming back. His days as a premiere DH are gone for good.

Weren't you complaining about getting pitchers off the scrap heap?

How good is the guy going back to the Orioles? Seems like they might have gotten more at the TDL.

Totally agree

And that was his best 4 week stretch of the year. He hasn't done much else outside of it.

Very good point:lol:

We can only hope. Might bump up his trade value.

His way of saying Dice and Wake shouldn't be counted on for a full season.

I hope Wake sits out the 1st half of next season and comes back the 2nd half. It's usually when they could use a fresh arm. This is just my opinion but I think one of Dice-K/Tazawa will be part of a trade this off season.

Yes because it's unheard of to eat a players salary and release him:rolleyes: Not saying that's what's going to happen. But there are options. Ortiz or Lowell could be an add on in a trade possibly too. Bay would be nice to bring back, but like I said there are other options. If this was a small market team, then yes it would be hard to move some of these guys. When you can eat $ and not have it be a big issue, it's easier to move players. The view of Holliday as being a downgrade is laughable and could only come from someone like you. Holliday's younger, far superior in the field and his bat isn't that much of a downgrade. Of course if the Sox sign Bay, and the Yanks sign Holliday, I'm sure it will take all of 5 minutes for you to show up and tell us how Holliday is the superior player, and how the Sox missed out again to the Yanks...

I'm not ready to give up on the season. But I agree with you to a certain extent about this team being old in certain vital places. I think we could see a decent roster shake up come this off season. Like the one following the 2006 season. Holliday should be the #1 option for LF, Bay wouldn't be bad to bring back either. But as we have seen he is very streaky. Either hits everything, or hits nothing. There might be some other options there as well via trade or someone who's option might not get picked up that we don't know of right now. Find a horse SP via trade or maybe sign Lackey. Although his numbers are not good in Fenway. SS needs to be set. Lowrie doesn't look like he's going to cut it. He would be a great super utility player for this club though IMO. Decide what to do with Lowell and Ortiz. Lowell might be able to bounce back next season. With Kotchman/Youk.V-Mart all able to play 1B. Youk should be able to allow the Sox to not over use him, thus hopefully keeping him healthy all season. Ortiz is tough. Maybe someone will trade for him. Maybe they flat out release him. I don't think they should go into the season enxt year as the teams full time DH. they could keep him, but AB's in the DH spot should be spread out more. Ortiz and Lowell just aren't full season guys anymore it would seem.

Ya he looked like he rolled a little bit when he hit the brakes around 2nd.

Fook Over under on Penny pitches this inning?

Ells!!!!

Let's go offense, nut up!

f*** me running....

Weed or no weed, this doesn't look good...

That was awful

We don't see eye to eye on a lot of things. But I couldn't agree with you more. Nice post:thumbsup:

Not a bloody chance in Hell:D Same here. It could be worse I suppose:lol:

Now the weed has kicked in... Penny looked dominant that last inning!

Was ok inning by Penny

91MPH on Penny's FB? Is the gun just not juiced away from Fenway?
