  1. Yeah, it makes you wonder if Valentine's mind has snapped.
  2. Could we at least try to not be behind 4-0 or 5-0 before we come to bat...
  3. The downward spiral for this team started the day they signed Lackey. That was Step 1. Step 2 was the AGon trade and Step 3 was the Crawford signing.
  4. Pretty goddam desperate when Kalish is hitting in the 6 spot isn't it.
  5. That has to be one of the worst lineups we've had in a long time.
  6. Reddick had 2 hits and a walk last night. I think SCM is trying to will him to suck. I've been trying that too but so far it isn't really working.
  7. What else is new - things are always worse than anticipated with this team. Seems like the most sensible policy is to just expect it to keep raining s***.
  8. Lester now assumes the ERA lead among the 5 pitchers with the most starts, at a sparkling 4.33. So yeah, it's hard to argue the starting pitching hasn't stunk overall.
  9. Youk hit 199/314/346 after the break in 2011 and 233/315/377 for us this year. 324 PA's or about half a season of abject sucking. How are you supposed to expect him to suddenly catch fire by keeping him around one more month.
  10. That leads into a thought I have about effecting a change in Sox ownership without Henry even having to sell. Simple plan...Henry's wife Linda kills him. Nothing spectacular, just slow acting poison. The best part is, nobody would even notice Henry was dead for several weeks, even if he was out in public. It'd be Weekend at Bernie's 3.
  11. Pumpsie, they're saying this injury happened on a diving catch attempt in Wednesday's game. I didn't see the play but I assume a lot of people did.
  12. You're right...I didn't put much work into that...I figured somebody would come up with some better picks.
  13. I've been giving Papi a pass on this stuff up till now, but enough is enough. This is incredibly selfish stuff. The team is struggling and the last thing they need is this kind of press. Save it till after the season. An apology would be a good idea.
  14. Well at least Papelbon is trying to make us feel a little better. Last 5 appearances have been nasty. IP 4.2 H 9 BB 3 HBP 1 ER 6 2 blown saves. ERA has gone from 2.02 to 3.45.
  15. This complete loss of control is actually referred to now by some as 'Steve Blass Disease'. In golf its called 'the yips'.
  16. I can't remember too many similar cases to what Bard is going through. It appears very serious to me. He seems to have totally lost the plate. The only other examples I can think of are Steve Blass and Rick Ankiel. For both of them it was the end of their pitching careers. Can you think of anybody who went through this and came back successfully?
  17. Bard had another disaster outing tonight. A couple of hits, a couple of HBP, a couple of wild pitches. You couldn't make this s*** up.
  18. No Pedroia this weekend apparently.
  19. We could put together a team of traded/released Red Sox. 1B Rizzo 2B Scutaro SS Lowrie 3B Youkilis C Kottaras LF Murphy CF Crisp RF Reddick DH Moss P Masterson
  20. Really...they are pissing themselves at us the last week or so. Reddick, Crisp and Moss all homering against us, while Bailey and Sweeney aren't even playing. Youkilis turning right back into 2007 Youkilis as soon as we move him. Rizzo hitting bombs while Gonzo hits singles. Oh well...maybe Lillibridge will heat up.
