    This guy filling in for Orsillo has to go.
  2. Kimmi
    Just when you think you're out, they reel you back in.
  3. Kimmi
    Sigh.....

    Not only that, he'll stay on a tear all year next year too, and we'll wonder why we ever traded him as our new 1B stinks up a storm.

    Go Hanley! A Gold Glove is on the way!

    Napoli is on fire tonight, BTW.
  7. Kimmi
    LOL Perfect!

    I highly, highly doubt that the FO goes by stats alone. There's a reason why they have a scouting department. Any fault that goes to the FO goes to both aspects of player evaluation, not just the stat side. I know that virtually the entire rotation stunk. And they all underperformed. I understand if you want to put the blame on the GM. I really do. I just don't think he deserves it.

    Roger was my first baseball crush. He is no longer the man. Not even close.
  10. Kimmi
    LOL Hanley looked surprised that he caught that last ball.

    Last year we had a team with 3 of our farm guys playing 3 key positions. We saw first hand what growing pains look like. We also saw that fans were not very patient. I like the Hanigan and De Aza signings as well.

    OMG, get Clemens out of the freaking booth!
  13. Kimmi
    Geez ump, gotta have that pitch.
  14. Kimmi
    If he spent $20 mil on a player that was a known replacement level player, he would deserve the blame. If he spends $20 mil on a player who is a 3 WAR player, then said player performs like a replacement level player, then I can't really blame the GM. A GM just cannot control what takes place on the field.
  15. Kimmi
    Of course not. But I've always believed in the philosophy that building a good team starts with the farm.
  16. Kimmi
    Let's see how long this lead lasts. LOL
  17. Kimmi
    Napoli!!!
  18. Kimmi
    Wouldn't that be nice.
  19. Kimmi
    Their strategy clearly did not work. Time to figure out how to fix this mess.

    I believe I read today that the Sox have the #1 farm system in MLB. I think the owners and the FO do patience a lot better than the fans do. Not patience where they will go into rebuild mode for several years, but patience where they won't sell the farm in an attempt to bring in a superstar to "win it all this year".
  21. Kimmi
    For some unknown reason, we don't do shut down innings.
  22. Kimmi
    Sandoval isn't a great third baseman, but he should be solid, and he certainly should have been an upgrade over what we had last year. Finding someone to play LF wouldn't be that difficult. Finding another RH power bat to replace Hanley would be. As far as the competence of Cherington goes, I don't think he's as incompetent as people are making him out to be. When the team stinks as badly as it does, of course the GM is going to shoulder the blame, whether deserved or not.
  23. Kimmi
    I agree that the FO needs to focus on pitching this offseason, both in the rotation and the bullpen. I think the offense will eventually be fine. If they do trade Hanley and/or Pablo, then they will have created other holes that need to be filled as well.
  24. Kimmi
    I should have known it was you. After all, you are the King.
  25. Kimmi
    Of course not. I ask that question because so many people want to get rid of both of them because of the way that they have played so far. Everyone knows that they are not that bad. It's possible that they won't be worth their contract. Even so, they should be valuable contributors to the team going forward.
