  1. @JennyDellNESN: 2/23 #Sox vs TB: Ellsbury CF, Pedroia 2B, Victorino RF, Saltalamacchia C, Gomes LF, Drew SS, Middlebrooks 3B, Overbay 1B, Sweeney DH, Lackey A lineup I hope I never see after March...
  2. And was a pinch hitter in two of those games.
  3. Went through the box scores, he was error free for the last 17 games. SSS for sure.
  4. How is that possible? He only played in 75 games. Where are those other 28 games from?
  5. It's not a lock. I think he should start the season in RI. I just think that IF he regains his form, he's their best setup guy.
  6. You said to use the best reliever in highest leverage situations. That was the impetus for the closer by committee nonsense.
  7. Ah yes, the ol' closer by committee gag. No thanks... But your point contradicts your previous " wont have the pressure" comment if you're still using him in a high leverage situation.
  8. The games might not count, but they're still fun.
  9. Bard was fine in the 8th. Not sure he needs to be a 6-7 guy.
  10. Ben the boob ruined this kid's career by having him start!!!
  11. I just can't hold him responsible for blowing up over that jerk BV last year. He was spoken to this year and he has the chance to turn the page. If he doesn't, it'll be easy to cut bait. He was the only pitcher producing down the stretch in 2011. The Sox should try to harness that.
  12. Of all the douchebaggy things I could have said, that's pretty low on list. Why so sensetive?
  13. If next time is next month, they'll just release him as his contract isn't fully guaranteed. I bet he's a good soldier until April, just for $ purposes.
  14. How's that "retirement" from TS going?
  15. Fred, it's just that your anger takes you back to 1957 to attempt a link to today's club. It's ridiculous. If the only way you "prove" your point is to go back 55 years, then your point probably isn't valid. For someone whose arguments are pretty weak, this Kalish nonsense takes the cake.
  16. Ah yes, you were quite the Sox fan in 57!
  17. The reports are really all over the place. Abraham and McAdam saying it's not a big deal. Cafardo mentioning BV (shocker there). Others stating more in line with what you guys have posted. Frankly, we all know he's nuts. I don't think this issue has changed my mind about that. If seems that Farrell and Nieves handled it well. If it happens again, then ghere's a story. For now, I think it's being blown out of proportion.
  18. The last time I saw John David Booty was too soon. Ugh...
  19. Abraham the says "@PeteAbe: @Tcav222 i don't think it's a big deal"
  20. "But when Alfredo Aceves took the mound on Field 4 Sunday afternoon, his first few pitches to Jarrod Saltalamacchia were batting-practice speed and right over the plate. After a bit, it became obvious that Aceves either didn't understand the point of the drill or wasn't trying. Pitching coach Juan Nieves visited the mound and their conversation lasted about a minute. Aceves then fired a real fastball and the rest of his time on the mound was uneventful. When the righthander came off the mound, manager John Farrell was waiting for him." Writers just need stories. Spring training is boring so everything is blown out of proportion.
  21. The article says "his first few pitches" were thrown at bp speed. It didn't say "players" (just Salty) or "lobbed."
  22. Overreact much?
  23. If SBF seriously thinks Kalish injured his shoulder because McCoy is a terrible stadium, then he's wrong on both accounts...
  24. SBF's point is he wouldn't have been injured in Boston. Knowing what we know now, it should be obvious that Kalish was likely to get injured wherever he was playing.
  25. Rhode Island drivers are horrible. Aside from that, SBF's point isn't valid.
