  1. If the Sox had lost to the Guardians in 07, would everyone be pissing and moaning about a Sox decline since 05? While they didn't win in 08, it was a great year. Stop pissing on it just because they didn't win a ring. If the only thing that makes you happy is a WS win, you're a pretty s***** fan, imo.
  2. The same blind loyalty that had Francona leave Wakefield off various postseason rosters... Let's just throw out logic and reason because who needs it? We're straight shooters!
  3. Ah yes, Francona "torpedoed" 2008, rather than got them almost to the WS... The alternate reality that some people live in is just amazing to me.
  4. As in why Larry didn't let Ben make the managerial decision last year?
  5. CERA is more important than throwing out runners. Tek was one of the greatest Sox catchers of all time (second to Fisk). The flack he got on here was from people who think they know more about the game than they actually do. I'd take 2011 Tek over any of the options we have this year.
  6. Can't be mad at Youk for going where the $ is. If he pulled a Ray Allen and went to a rival for less $, then I could see why people would be mad.
  7. http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/gamelog/_/id/28578/ryan-sweeney He hit .250 in May. His average was tanking before the concussion.

  9. It means that there are players with higher upside that should take a roster spot.
  10. At least Lars isn't coming back, just signed with ChiSox.
  11. Career .280 hitter with only 2 hr's since the start of 2010. Gross. It's not like he's Vince Coleman on the base paths.
  12. Lohse isn't worth the pick they'd give up.
  13. Ladies and gentlemen, your AAA 1b: Lyle Overbay.
  14. How many years were the O's paying Albert Belle after his career ended? Why should the Yanks be treated differently?
  15. Great, so we can keep him around for 5-6 years until he becomes serviceable? Fantastic.
  16. Didn't say you were. I just think if Wright is pitching, so much has gone wrong that it'll be another lousy summer.
  17. Kill me now. Get it over with. I follow him on twitter. He doesn't know who Wally is. He just calls him the monster.
  18. I hope you are able to gloat and win many sig bets.
  19. Also, calling someone a "crafty veteran" just means the guy is a soft tosser. There's no way he has an ERA under 4.
  20. Dempster is awful. Doubront will outperfom him.
  21. @PeteAbe: Be shocked if Jason Varitek wanted a full-time coaching job. Chad Epperson could replace the mysteriously vanished Gary Tuck
  22. Guess he doesn't want full time gig. It'll be someone else.
  23. Gary Tuck is gone.
  24. That has yet to be seen. The lack of attendance was more due to diehards haring the direction of the team. The late arrival fans are happy with just going to Fenway to drink and sing Sweet Caroline (basically a Cubs fan) and don't care if they win or lose. If bandwagon fans left after bad seasons, they would have disappeared after that boring 2010 season.
  25. With Lackey around, we won't have to waste a keg on Bud Light. Also, work on branding a Red Sox beer.
