I don't understand why people can never find the middle ground. It's stupid to think that a manager has a gigantic impact on team performance, but it's also stupid to think he has no impact.
RR jr was a starter last year, but was a pretty decent reliever before that. The one move that still busts my balls about the offseason is the Sandoval signing. Why did they sign him? I just don't get it.

Just......beat these *******s.
So Sandoval finally broke his suck-bone. A bone that only baseball players that suck have, like Panda and assorted Yankee SS. Hopefully they can't repair his suck-bone and they remove it so he stops sucking.
What he's saying is that there's a difference between being realistic like most of us here are, and a consistently whining twat like some others. If the hat doesn't fit, don't wear it. You're taking something that wasn't directed at you in the first place pretty personal.
Father time hit Papi and Napoli fast and hard, as it has many guys with their bodysets, Ortiz defied the odds for a while, but he's done. The Sandoval signing will stand as the pinnacle of failure for Ben's tenure. Thanks for 2013, but goodbye.
