  1. Actually moon, having followed this whole discussion with a lot of interest, I think one of your statements that got Max worked up, and bothered me as well, was that we would have a 10 or 15 game lead without all the mental mistakes - suggesting they had cost us 5 to 10 games.
  2. Personally I have seen some good spirit and desire with this team. After all, they just won a 19 inning game that they trailed 2-0 going to the 9th. They seem to me to be having fun, what with the outfield dance and the little ritual they have after a home run with Mookie taking the guy's helmet off. They now have 10 walkoff wins, which I assume is pretty close to the most. None of that stuff even matters that much to me, all I really care about is the W-L record.
  3. What's been a season long pattern?
  4. Hmmm...we're 4 games ahead, so if the Yankees pick up 5 games on us the rest of the way...no, I don't think that would be good.
  5. You guys are whacked.
  6. Some jobs draw a lot more scrutiny, criticism and abuse than others though. I think being manager of the Red Sox is just below being President of the US when it comes to that.
  7. Some call it rest, others call it sitting a rookie who's slumping.
  8. And yet no one even put in a waiver claim on Stanton.
  9. Yes, Fister is playing leapfrog on the depth chart.
  10. No. Farrell's Waterloo will come if the Sox collapse. You don't seriously think Girardi will be fired if the Sox counter-allegations turn out to be true, do you?
  11. Peter Abraham thinks the Sox punishment will be basically a slap on the wristwatch.
  12. It's sort of the reverse of 2013 when everyone had good years.
  13. Not much in baseball truly mystifies me anymore. You just have to accept that it's the nature of the game to be mystifying.
  14. Yeah, not arguing that, but the principle in effect would seem to be that the team gets punished for the actions of its employees...which is probably on pretty solid legal ground.
  15. The Pats were fined and lost draft picks for Deflategate, right?
  16. Um, it depends how hard you get punched? Punches have killed people.
  17. That's kind of oversimplifying don't you think? A lot of pitchers have been successful with 2 pitches. Hell, Mariano Rivera only had one.
  18. I made it into the 18th before giving up. My 'find out the next morning' mojo has actually been very good this year.
  19. mvp and dogs who like Quarter Pounders mojo!
  20. Yes but the .821 only applies if you put the ball in play. I think we've been swinging at more first pitches recently, but I could be wrong about that.
  21. For me, more to the point about Estrada is that, like many pitchers having s***** years, there are some good games mixed in there. On August 10 he blanked the Yanks for 7. Now if you want to say we've been making too many s***** pitchers look good this year, I wouldn't argue with that.
  22. Whatever they want. And let us know all the details of course.
  23. That's baseball for ya.
  24. Which is way below the MLB average of .936.
