  1. Let's go Clay Greyjoy. You do not sow...
  2. Jose Iglesias hasn't been on the team for 3 years. Xander has turned into an above average fielder. Jose doesn't come close to Cander's hit tools. Also, I don't remember anyone ever calling him Iggy Pop.
  3. He was given a temporary ban for attacking other posters. After the temp ban, he didn't clean up his act. This was during the disaster of 2012.
  4. Craig has only played in 4 games so far. He's been on the DL.
  5. Red Sox at White Sox: Betts RF, Pedroia 2B, Bogaerts SS, Ortiz DH, Ramirez 1B, Young LF, Shaw 3B, Vazquez C, Bradley Jr. CF, Buchholz RHP.
  6. If they kept Manny, he wouldn't have hit .400 down the stretch the way he did for LA. He just didn't want to be here and was fine with sulking. Thinking otherwise is revisionist history. Plus, they filled his spot with Jason Bay who played better than Manny had for the Sox that year.
  7. Also, the Yankees and Braves sucked long before they faced the Red Sox. They are two struggling teams.
  8. http://fullcount.weei.com/sports/boston/baseball/red-sox/2016/05/02/christian-vazquez-heeds-chili-davis-advice-hits-longest-home-run-of-life/
  9. He's being paid $13M over 2 years. Where is the $2.5 coming from?
  10. It was a great decision to bring him back though...
  11. He had one last year and didn't impress with it.
  12. These are definitely the top 2. It's beyond the scope of this post, but they should have also retained Roger and Boggs for the remainder of their careers.
  13. 1. The bold sentence is the exact opposite of what UN has been saying. We are criticizing the strategy, not the results (i.e. why start Young against RHP if Holt is available). 2. The record is more indicative of beating up on the Yankees and Braves, 2 of the worst teams in the league. 3. When we give Chili Davis credit for preparing Vazquez, Farrell gets all the indirect credit he can have. The leaders of well run organizations/departments typically will take the blame for corrective matters but will applaud their staff for any successes.
  14. Plus, his dog is great for NESN commercials!
  15. I can disagree. I don't believe he can "deal" anymore. His velocity is down and the contact rate is up. He's also never been a 7th inning guy and there is a transition there (uncertainty of when he'll pitch, come in with runners on, etc.).
  16. I'd give Young into June before making a change. Obviously, the Sox have more info and should hold onto him as long as they deem fit.
  17. Who is the sacrificial lamb that will take the Buchholz game thread today? Thunder?
