Lord Snow IS unjustified pessimism. He's also not very smart, because his negativity-filled arguments make no sense.
That being said, the Sox do need to shore up their SP depth.
In all fairness, Gagne was really really really good there for a significant amount of time. In fact, he was great in Texas before the trade to the Sox. But there seems to be something in the Red Sox' water supply that makes pitchers suck.
I could not disagree more. How quickly we forget Ortiz' contributions to this team in the past, and the potency his bat still holds.
He may be a bit of a primadonna, but that rant is ridiculous man.
It's linked to a post where he says he can't wait until WMB and Napoli start hitting to see what the lineup looks like. And since Napoli and WMB accounted for four homers and half the team's runs.......well, it makes sense.
