  1. 1. Or if Kalish was in Boston, he could have gone crazy, broken into the team plane's cockpit and flown the plane straight into the ground! Hypotheticals! 2. Or Ells could have been hurt even worse in CF since he clearly has the injury bug as you clearly stated. 3. Like the back of his hand??? Does absence make the heart grow fonder. Bay was competent in LF, not exceptional. And like you said, Bay probably would have been injured anyway. 4. Even if they signed Holliday, they still would have picked up Lackey. 5. Of course "now" people think CC was a bad signing. Prior to 2011, the majority of people were clamoring for him to be signed by the Sox.
  2. No. That would be horrible. Sox should stay in Boston. I din't want them to be the Boston Red Sox of Marlborough.
  3. I think no trade is made for Ells. He has an ok season. Ends up resigning with the Sox as no other offers blow him away.
  4. Major money? Not unless they move Ells, but that's not happening until July at the earliest. There will be moves to round out the roster, but none to bring in AS talent. Certain posters will be pissed, but it is what it is at this point. Not much wiggle room left.
  5. A million times this. Overwhelming evidence here.
  6. We had a poster on here getting all pissy because a friend saw Lackey drink 5 Bud Lights after a game one night. The problem wasn't the drinking, it was his elbow.
  7. People complained last offseason that Ben moved too slow. He did the majority of his work after Jan 1st. I expect more of the same this year. I expect about 2 trades and several more depth signings.
  8. We're lucky they aren't over 5 already!
  9. Choke jobs to last several generations! A foul pole named for a guy who didn't hit homeruns! Seats in the OF that don't face the IF! Bricks!
  10. Yup, give me 6 innings and 3 ER all day from the 5. What was it last year, 5 innings 5 ER for the 5's. Any competency would be an improvement over last year.
  11. New Years resolution: burn Fenway down and build a real stadium for christsakes...
  12. 10 games from 69 wins, or 10 games from the 81 win pace they had before the trade?
  13. Get rid of interleague play. Stop the AS Game from deciding home field. If the Sox start too slow, everyhome game against the Yanks could be meaningless. Fantastic. Thanks Bud.
  14. Well, being "worthy of a platoon" is actually a step up from where they had him last year (AAA).
  15. There's no f'n way... Is there?
  16. Not surprising as he struggled mightily at the beginning of the season. Lavs wasn't called up until after Buch turned his season around.
  17. Drew is 7, Ross is 3
  18. If anyone cares: @JennyDellNESN: Checked @RedSox site-changed #'s: @Middlebrooks 16, Gomes 5, @dnavs33 29, Iglesias 10, Ciriaco 23, @RyanLavarnway 20, Tazawa 36, Doubront 35
  19. And yet your crystal ball is saying none of the prospects will be as good as Sanchez (a prospect we dumped btw).
  20. Trade for an ace. Figure out the rest from there. Without a true #1, this team will always be an "also-ran." No combination of Sanchez, Jackson, Buerhle, Johnson, Dempster, and Kuroda would change that.
  21. Did John Lackey improve the pitching staff here? This team needs less mediocre pitchers and more frontline starters. Sanchez is a 3-4. We have enough of those already...
  22. Doesn't matter. Throwing away money on 4 year contracts is just as bad.
  23. Why couldn't they be?
  24. This is basically the thought process that gave us such great contracts as Lackey, Crawford, Cameron, etc. Signing some shmo just for the sake of spending money is not how responsible teams build their organization.
  25. Then the answer is nobody. Thank you, sir.
