This jersey was always my favorite. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41Y4eKTYbyL._SX300_.jpg I love the very plain letters, very retro! And with no names on the back, please!!

Everybody in the universe knew that was a bad decision.

At least the guy has a classic Cardinal Fan mullet. You don't see that in Boston.

Forget Peavey. Why not use Workman until he shows he cannot pitch in the Big Leagues. Keep Middlebrook!

It seems to me the pitching coach came out of nowhere. I think Farrell identifies good people and that is a plus. Lets hope they can fix Bailey. BTW, I love the Japanese duo. That is what baseball is all about!

A former pitcher, not a stellar career, but once threw a no hitter. Is he the reason the RS pitching staff is doing so well? Who found this guy? What is the connection to Farrell? Could a pitching coach make this much difference? http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/team/_/stat/pitching

Is this Ben Sherrington? That is exactly what he said this AM in WEEI. CC cannot hit lefties. Never did!

I get it that. But getting CC back so soon after TJ surgery is much more stressful than having CC in rehab.

CC is looking awful and BV will have to play him because he is getting pain 142 million. One has to wonder how the team-mates that make minimum salary relate to CC.

Lets be real. It seems Crawford cannot throw and hence is removed in the 7th inning for defense upgrade. Will need TJ surgery and will be out one season. Has a HUGE contract. Cannot hit. Cannot field. Is getting old. Legs will soon go. Has no heart. Chokes. Is there a single GM in the planet that may consider Crawford for a trade? I think there is no one out there that would take him.

Could it be they want to showcase some other pitcher before the trading deadline?

I am in shock! This is our ace and he is back in the bullpen. Any ideas? I feel more confident watching this guy pitch than watching Lester and Beckett. How long will this last?

That statement is in contradiction with the bulk muscle mass secondary to steroids. This caused an epidemic of sluggers. Brady Anderson went from 15 to 50 homers in one season after bulking up.

By the way remove the name from the back in the away gray uniforms.

In the old days ALL players used stockings. So stockings would be more traditional than long pants all the way down to the shoes. I like the idea of having an extremely plain gray away uniform with the red stockings.
