    This is idiocy. You're new to this board, so how about you calm down just a little bit? I'm not saying i like Beckett's attitude. I'm saying i don't care about it as long as he keeps his mouth shut and performs. After Saturday, there was no confrontation or ********. Just the cold, hard truth: He didn't execute and the Tigers kicked his ass. If you want anything more than that then you're "Either related to one of his exes or a Marlins fan"

    20/20 hindsight. Also, he's not a proven commodity as a closer. I see little substance here. Sorry. You're entitled to your opinion though.

    Point A is a knee-jerk reaction. If Bard can be a good starter, he needs to be in the rotation until he reaches his innings cap. This is about long-term instead of short-term tunnel vision. Starting pitching is more valuable than relief pitching, which is, in turn, easier to fill out mid-season. Point B i don't understand. What exactly did Beckett do this time to draw ire? He got bombed because he was all over the place, but what did he do/say that makes his attitude "wrong"? Should he have cried on the mound? Send part of his salary back to the fans?

    Which player on the Red Sox do you think they would be willing to trade that has significant value to other teams? Also, the farm doesn't need to be "replenished", it needs to be given time to churn out its current talent. If all four of those guys go, there are in-house options to replace all of them (Jenks and Dice-K are already being replaced by in-house options) and that money would be enough to cover raises and spend on pitching. Actually no, it really doesn't. Those guys need to be kept around as this team's core. You would sabotage the very plan you present by trading young, cost-controlled talent.

    Larry Lucchino agrees with you:

    Wasn't this off-season the definition of calculated planning instead of overreaction spending? Don't they have a bunch of money coming off the books from several aging veterans that will likely be replaced with cheap, in-house but viable options? Your thought process and the reality of what's happening to the Red Sox are mutually exclusive.

    Asinine. The adjustment can be made on the fly while still fielding a good team.

    This is spot-on.

    So the pitchers who haven't signed even though the season started are now more expensive? That makes no sense.

    Aceves needs to go back to his anytime-reliever role. Melancon i just can't figure out what's the problem. His velocity and movement seemed to be very good after going back to check on Gameday, but he keeps throwing meatballs.

    After three games? The panicky s*** is surprising from you, since you're usually one of the more reasonable posters. Pull your s*** together. It's been three games.
