    Dear Lord, do you owe Farrell money? Is he holding one of your kids for ransom at gunpoint?

    Thanks, it's my favorite cop-out phrase.

    But then that doesn't make any sense, since injuries to his legs and problems with preparation because of wear-and-tear on his body are reasons 1 and 1A why he's considering retirement.

    And he's a guy who's had a measure of success at the MLB level before.

    I am crossing fingers I had no idea I could cross together.

    YOTN will fix it. But that's really the point, to try to lighten his workload. Not such a big deal though considering how much Shields is discussed on this forum one way or another.

    But demanding in what sense, just to clear this up: Overall physical fitness or injury likelihood?

    I still think Farrell's teams run the bases like idiots. The personnel here is much better, so that covers for some mistakes, but some gaffes from Hanley/Shaw tell you that they need to be a little more conservative with some of the slower guys. In general, though, if there's a team constructed to run the bases like idiots with little to no negative consequences, it's this one.

    Why do you keep talking like you know what other people are thinking? First off, the complaints about Farrell playing Young against righties are and were, valid. Now he's playing out of necessity and doing relatively well, but come on, dude was a OPS'ing low .600's in a limited sample size. I've been a staunch Farrell defender on this board since they hired him (and a700 can confirm this) he was my guy as soon as Vallentine was let go, but that doesn't shield him from my criticism when he does something I consider stupid. Farrell barely received any criticism here anyway. We discussed his in-game moves because he started the season with some head-scratchers he clearly isn't commiting now, but here, in this baseball forum dedicated to the Boston Red Sox, we are allowed to discuss managerial moves, either negatively, or positively (you conveniently forget how many of the "bashers" whatever that idiocy means, have given props to his improved performance).

    You are now my spirit animal. You explained what I've been trying to explain in a much more eloquent manner. Swinging a bat and throwing a pitch are extremely taxing and unnatural motions with an extremely high rate of wear and tear/injury risk, and that's without the solid mass hurtling at you at up to 100 MPH.

    Answer my question.

    Yet Swihart can't hit MLB pitching after 300 plate appearances. Be consistent.
  13. User Name
    Now you answer my question: Is it realistic to say that being a DH for an MLB team is not a demanding job both physically and mentally?
  14. User Name
    ^This.
  15. User Name
    Because of so many maximum effort movements, imo.

    They need a pitcher and E-Rod's recovery. The BP may fix itself with improvements from the unit itself, and maybe Kelly joining.

    In other words, you are indeed your wife's bitch. As Hitch says, I trust no man who *says* he kills the spider. You, sir, are a liar.
  18. User Name
    ^Ditto
  19. User Name
    Don't lie to me. You're on diaper change/booger wipe duty. Bug duty falls to the wife, since you're scared of any and all bugs.
  20. User Name
    Bitch you can't even kill spiders in your house, your wife has to do it. How you gon' handle a true beast?
  21. User Name
    I don't even know how to respond to this without making it worse.
  22. User Name
    146/181.
  23. User Name
    I'll take on any and all male comers under the age of 65, because anything above it would be considered a hate crime. So it's you and MVP. Let's get it on!
  24. User Name
    I don't agree with anything or anyone. Fight me you li'l bitch!
  25. User Name
    Your post literally says "It's not as demanding impact wise as the other 3", which is debatable at best anyways considering length of season, and the wear-and-tear of certain positions.
