  1. A lifestyle choice for sure!
  2. How many HR's will he get in the AL? Zero for the past 3 weeks. Not good!
  3. moon: going to the store to buy dinner! moon's family: ok. moon: I'm back with one bag of takis! moon's family: uh? What about dinner? moon: I bought it. moon's family: where? Is it behind the takis? moon: no, it is the takis. you should be happy now.
  4. The pen acquisitions were lateral moves. They added a LHB who plays LF. They already had one of those. They were NOT buyers.
  5. From 75-59, they won 90+ games 4 times. Hard to believe the goal was only 81 wins. IMO, .500 was more indicative of the early to mid 90's teams.
  6. A Red Sox source told ESPNdeportes.com that the cause of the dugout disagreement was Youkilis' temper following a poor at-bat. "It all happened because Manny complained about Youkilis' habit of throwing bats, helmets and other objects in the dugout when he has a bad at-bat, something that has become a constant practice," the source said. "Other players have told Youkilis in the past about the situation, which makes him look selfish and that he is more worried about each at-bat than about the team. If Boston is winning easily, there's no reason to throw objects all over the dugout because of a bad at-bat. "There was a meeting where the team let Youkilis know that many of his teammates were tired of his explosive reactions for each bad plate appearance. It became very bothersome … more so when the team is winning and it's in first place. There's not much room for individualistic attitudes."
  7. Go back in time and give Ryan spider tack...
  8. Yes, they aren't the 2nd best team in the division. Probably destined to not make the play in game. They have won several offseasons and have nothing to show for it.
  9. I guess we can ignore his 5 rehab starts then.
  10. I'd be fine with that. My preference in retrospect: buyers > sellers > nothing They chose the least desirable option.
  11. No, they'd f*** up the timeline, kiss their moms and teach everyone about launch angle.
  12. Like when Manny and Youk fought in the dugout?
  13. It was and is bad juju.
  14. He could only go 5 innings against the O's and gave up 2 bombs. What would that game have looked like against a stacked TOR lineup?
  15. Kimmi, if the free fall began a few weeks before the deadline, would you have been fine with Bloom standing pat?
  16. The Sox had an abnormally high winning % in 1 run games. It was clear that wasn't sustainable. The bats have cooled off. The pen has struggled. I wouldn't start patting yourself on the back just yet because you said the Yanks were the best team in the division and the Jays were second best. You said the Rays would maybe have a WC chance. The Sox exceeded our expectations, but even if they go .500 the rest of the way they will have smoked yours. The "I've predicted everything that happened to this Sox team for the past 5 years" was ******** then and is ******** now.
  17. I'm hopeful for your take, but not seeing it right now. This team isn't showing any signs of life. Beating the O's during a 14 game losing streak doesn't count.
  18. ^^^ I was going to make the offseason thread as a joke, but realized that even if I'm down on the Sox I can't put it out there in the universe.
  19. He didn't start last night. Is his hammy still bothering him?
  20. He doesn't need to do it all, but someone at some point has to provide a spark. If it's not the new acquisition, then what's the point of bringing him in?
  21. MLB has been like this for 25 years now at least.
  22. 434 OPS since this post.
  23. @ChrisCotillo Nick Pivetta still believes the Red Sox are better than the Yankees, who swept them and passed them in the standings this week. "Yes, they’re a good team. But we’re better and we’re going to move forward from this.”
