  1. How to Fix This Team? Get rid of Salty. He's killing the pitching staff. He can't hit, he can't field, and he can't call a game. Catcher's ERA isn't usually the best indicator for performance... but Salty is just plain terrible, and it is obvious to anyone watching the game. There is a two full point difference between Shoppach and Salty-- and Shop has caught two Buchholz starts. 2012 Shoppach's cERA -- 4.20 Salty's cERA -- 6.20 2011 Varitek's cERA-- 3.56 Salty's cERA-- 4.63 2010 Varitek's cERA --4.22 VMart's cERA --4.60 Salty's cERA --4.95
  2. I don't think they'll get through the season with Bautista hitting 180. If something is wrong with him, they suddenly lose a lot of their mashability.
  3. In all fairness... Nick Johnson is a trainwreck.
  4. Fun Fact: In the five games prior to this one, the Red Sox have averaged 9.2 runs per game in games that Buchholz has pitched.
  5. Fun fact: It is more expensive to buy Pawsox tickets for the game on Thursday than Red Sox tickets.
  6. Beautiful catch on the wall. Crawford, you watching this?
  7. I turned on the TV, and noticed that someone had kindly placed a ball into the parking lot. Hell yes WMB!
  8. a700 has brought up a very good point all season long. With the extra wildcard spot, there are more teams that are going to be trying to get that extra piece at the trade deadline. The cost for quality players is going to be at an extreme premium. Personally, I'm starting to believe that there is a deep problem within the chemistry of this team. There are a lot of problems, and one or two more overpaid pitchers aren't going to solve them. Trade Beckett and his fried chicken. Trade Youkilis, and his broken body. Trade Salty and his 6.00+ cERA. Even trade Dice-k, who may suddenly have value if he'll waive. Get whatever value you can for any single member of the bullpen besides Aceves. Fire Valentine. Load up on talented players that are a year or two from the majors, and make a run.
  9. It is one thing if a player is trying to trade a player that they drafted too high. But if someone is trying to get a player from me that I do not want to trade, they need to trade a player to me for where I value them.
  10. Can someone explain to me why Darnell Mcdonald is batting versus a right handed pitcher?
  11. Works for me. Let them win, then.
  12. Is Middlebrooks here to stay? Everything he's shown seems to scream "Keep me in the majors" all over him.
  13. That was the weakest RBI I've ever seen
  14. Red Sox having trouble hitting with RISP.... what else is new.
  15. And there goes the lead.
