  1. No it does not feel good. The Sox allocated $13. mil this year to a guy that had a poor chance of performing up to his contract and that is what happened. It was the wrong thing to do when they could have looked elsewhere to find scrub level pitching at a much more reasonable cost to supplant him in the rotation. Or they could have used the $13. mil toward chasing a better pitcher to fortify the week rotation. The Sox decided that they were okay with the risk of Buch sucking. That is bad judgement and bad business. Now, partly because Buch has sucked, the Sox will need to spend extravagantly of your precious prospects or worse, front line MLB talent , to make the rotation sound. The no brainer has been no bargain.
  2. Austin Rivers for $36. mil???? Why?
  3. And you can say that as much as you want. It does not change the fact that Buch has been a waste of time and a waste of money this season. So in my view, anyone opposed to the "no brainer" 2016 extension has been proven correct. Regardless of value expected or good intent.
  4. Essentially this. They are paying the stiff. Must try to get some useful mileage out of him. He has the heat. Worth a try.
  5. Don't fret. There is time to get there. .500 ALL ABOARD!!!1!!!!!1

    The Cubs

    Yes. f*** the Cubs.
  7. Did you ever sit at a bar and watch a game with other patrons of the bar? This is the closest to that experience that you can come.
  8. .500 here we come.
  9. I don't. Yes, the GTs are reactionary. But so what? It's a game. It's entertainment. Fans are involved and emotional. To me, that is a healthy sign.
  10. I am consoled knowing that so many experts chose the Sox to win the Division.
  11. I went outside to smoke brooding over a two touchdown deficit. I came back in to find it is now a three touchdown deficit. This is a disgrace. A $200.mil payroll team should play much better. Go Mookie!
  12. Ever the apologist!!!!! Lol. Shaw gave up the dingers too.
  13. It's easy to figure out. This team is not as good as you think that they are. I'll enjoy this season because there is a lot of good on this team. Otherwise I'm looking forward to 2017. Maybe the Sox will get some pitching by then.
  14. Of course he knew!!!! Lol!!1 How could he do such a sterling job of maintaining a strong player development system without knowledge of who he was hiring to play ball? Makes no sense to think that he did not know.
  15. And he had plenty of time to either tag 3rd or make a clean throw to second. Still like the kid, though.
  16. The man was the GM of the team. He had people working for him that did this stuff one could assume. Maybe he did not know anything about this issue. If so, he was a total dunce. How many times will you make excuses for what was a poor General Manager? He made more bad moves than good ones. And the bad ones have been very costly. I would have fired him for allowing this s*** to happen. So maybe Henry deserves blame either way.
  17. He's having a rough season defensively, so far.
  18. Reynold is a class A Twat.
  19. Good Man. You have my respect. And my condolences.
  20. Lol. Face it. You are just enough of a masochist. You can't help but watch the carnage.
  21. You were saying?
  22. f*** me sideways. 1st and 3rd with one out and they don't score.
  23. These Fox guys are annoying as hell.
