    One thing I'm not going to do is hope for Henry to sell the team. That could be an exercise in futility. He can hang onto the team as long as he wants and there's nothing we can do. I haven't hear any good rumors about anyone making offers for the team either.

    Taking the over is a sucker's bet. :harhar:
  3. Bellhorn04
    I'll take the under, mainly because I think if/when Valentine sees two Cookies fly out of the park he'll be out to the mound on the dead run. But then, who would the long reliever be?

    But Aceves has shown the ability to handle 30+ pitch outings. Less than a week earlier he threw 37 pitches against the Yankees and ended by getting through the heart of the Yankees' order.
  5. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, that's pretty much what I'm saying. It's an inexact science to say the least. To go to the other night's game, if Aceves walks Mauer and they bring in Breslow to face Morneau, and Morneau hits a rocket somewhere, I'm pretty sure there would be a lot of people saying Valentine was a bonehead for pulling his closer in that situation.

    Francona was always getting criticized for this too. And I think the manager before Francona may have run into an occasional problem with it. Can anybody name the last Red Sox manager who most agreed did a consistently good job pulling pitchers at the right time? Me either.

    I think Ben's greatest joy this year is assembling a powerhouse in Pawtucket.

    Great moment for the kid.

    Not to worry, the game is now in the hands of our clutch late inning offence.
  10. Bellhorn04
    Sox offence with no Ortiz and Gonzo a singles hitter - not a pretty sight.

    It gets better...Ellsbury is scratched and Kalish is in his place, leading off.

    Thanks to the new wild card setup and the degree of parity in the league this year, the sub .500 Red Sox are only 4 games out of a playoff spot. So the carrot of hope is still dangled in front of the fans and interest in the season hasn't been snuffed out yet.

    Valentine has done a good job with the bullpen. But that may be the only thing he's done well.
  15. Bellhorn04
    If this team deliberately set out to cause as much misery as possible for its fans this year, it couldn't have done a better job than this.

    Defence up the middle prevented a few runs there.

    His ineptitude against lefties is worse than his ineptitude against righties.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Valentine has been pretty consistent with this, batting CC second against righties and seventh against lefties.

    The Dodgers acquired Blanton from the Phillies in a waiver claim, in return for cash or a PTBNL.

    Just looked at the log of Reddick's 2012 home runs on HR Tracker. Not one of them has been a cheap shot. The shortest one was 356 feet. 11 of them were over 400 feet. Pretty impressive.
  21. Bellhorn04
    The best ERA among our starters is Doubie's 4.37, excluding Morales who has a 3.42 but only 26.1 IP. Pretty hard to get around a fact that ugly.
  22. Bellhorn04
    It's the Fortune .500 Red Sox.

    So the FO doesn't add a starting pitcher at the deadline, and in the first 2 games after the deadline expires, Beckett gets hurt and Cook gets torched. Gotta love this 2012 season.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Lester has a 7.39 ERA and 1.75 WHIP at Fenway this year. He might have to sharpen up on that just a bit.
