    1. They never "got rid of" Bill James. He's been on the payroll since 03. 2. Hoyer didn't leave until Oct 09. Where is all this "all downhill since 07" nonsense coming from? You can make a case that it's been downhill since the end of 09, but anything else is pushing it. 2008 was a solid year. Most posters would give their left nut to have a repeat of 09 rather than 12...

    You know, the same "Country Club" that had them ship out Manny...

    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.

    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!

    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.

    As in why Larry didn't let Ben make the managerial decision last year?

    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.

    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.

    http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/gamelog/_/id/28578/ryan-sweeney He hit .250 in May. His average was tanking before the concussion.

    It means that there are players with higher upside that should take a roster spot.
  12. mvp 78
    At least Lars isn't coming back, just signed with ChiSox.
  13. mvp 78
    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.
  14. mvp 78
    Lohse isn't worth the pick they'd give up.

    Ladies and gentlemen, your AAA 1b: Lyle Overbay.
  16. mvp 78
    How many years were the O's paying Albert Belle after his career ended? Why should the Yanks be treated differently?
  17. mvp 78
    Great, so we can keep him around for 5-6 years until he becomes serviceable? Fantastic.
  18. mvp 78
    Didn't say you were. I just think if Wright is pitching, so much has gone wrong that it'll be another lousy summer.
  19. mvp 78
    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.
  20. mvp 78
    I hope you are able to gloat and win many sig bets.
  21. mvp 78
    Also, calling someone a "crafty veteran" just means the guy is a soft tosser. There's no way he has an ERA under 4.
  22. mvp 78
    Dempster is awful. Doubront will outperfom him.
  23. mvp 78
    @PeteAbe: Be shocked if Jason Varitek wanted a full-time coaching job. Chad Epperson could replace the mysteriously vanished Gary Tuck
  24. mvp 78
    Guess he doesn't want full time gig. It'll be someone else.
  25. mvp 78
    Gary Tuck is gone.
