I was thinking Blaine Boyer.
-
Why wouldn't we want him to consider himself a leader? He's got all the credentials. He's a highly accomplished veteran player who's been on 2 World Series winners and who's known for giving 100% effort.
-
Optimism this time of year is good. One thing I've noticed though is how fast it disappears once the real games start. Just check out the game threads from the first few games of the season and you'll see it. I remember people getting down on Moreland last year because he started 0 for 8 or something.
-
I'm with Spudboy on the batting order stuff. Drives me nuts. Let the manager take care of it.
-
I agree. I see nothing wrong with what Pedroia said to the press. He was basically just affirming that he accepts that role, is how I interpret it.
-
Yes, it was kind of funny too. Man did he put a hurting on that thing.
-
Nothing affects those in the Boras Waiting Room.
-
That was whacked. The bullpen phone was frightening.
-
Oh no... I think we need a thread devoted exclusively to lineup suggestions and criticisms.
-
Or not.
-
I doubt that it ends the JD saga. But if our offer to him gets pulled I'm sure we'll find out pretty quickly.
-
One little incident with Papi I will never forget was when he destroyed that bullpen phone. Man was he angry.
-
I know. One of my favorites.
-
Plus Drew and Koji.
-
There were some big acquisitions in the offseasons preceding each of the Sox 3 titles this century.
-
I will say that I'm optimistic they'll be better than they would have been if we brought Farrell back for another season.
-
Personally I'm looking forward to arguing about it all year.
-
Butterfield gave kind of a non-answer though, didn't he?
-
I'm not super happy being a boring 90 win team battling it out for a Wild Card spot - especially when there are opportunities to get better.
-
We're still waiting for our buzz to show up. A certain famous play by Samuel Beckett comes to mind.
-
Pedroia raised some eyebrows in 2012 when he stuck up for Youkilis vs. Valentine...saying something like 'That's not how we do things here'...basically calling Valentine an asshat LOL
-
And he laughs and says 'f*** you, I'm not doing anything today either.'
-
I think it should also be factored in somewhere that JDM has no QO attached.
-
DH's can't win MVP so that one's safe...
-
There's risk no matter what you do or don't do. If we fail to sign JD there's the risk we blew a chance to sign one of the best power hitters in baseball over the next 4-5 years.
