  1. No David Ortiz probably has a lot to do with the drop in attenance and TV viewership.
  2. I hope he finds his way back to the ML team.
  3. No doubt.
  4. Prices have gone up since 2004, but they haven't taken a huge leap in any one year. The ID idea is a good one!
  5. Abosolutely nothing is a bit of an overstatement. Lin had a respectable .379 OBP. Like Kimmi theorized and Spud comfirmed, if they don't think Devers is ready, the Sox FO aren't calling him up. I prefer they err on the side of caution. As good as the kid is, he doesn't need to feel that he'll be responsible for sparking a mediocre offense.
  6. Looks like the rotation is: Pomeranz Sale Porcello Price Rodriguez The entire rotation has had some fantastic games lately, particullarly Price and Porcello. Rodriguez needs to keep it going.
  7. Yup, to air the interview, while the next inning had started was ridiculous. But, that's ESPN for you. Can't let the game interfere with the hype.
  8. I think Moreland's broken toe might be throwing his swing off.
  9. No one is saying Pablo can't be criticized for getting complacent in 2016 and showing up out of shape. The guy certainly dug his own grave, as far as a starting job on the Sox goes. Unfortunately for Pablo and the team, his skills have erroded to the point where ever showing up to ST this in better shape was no help. But there are a lot of posts here that go far beyond simple criticism of his performance.
  10. That's easy. It's a chance for some people to feel superior to someone that has made more money, playing a game, than they'll ever see in their lifetimes. A chance like that doesn't come around very often, you know.
  11. These reasons, along with Moon's idea that it may cause Xander to sign elsewhere, when the time comes, makes it a bad idea.
  12. Trust me, it's hilarious.
  13. Someone did a "Wake & Bake" this morning... The chances that Lin is better than Bogearts at SS are slim to none.
  14. You don't think Bobby V did as good (or bad) a job as Francona??? Good post.
  15. Yup, 8 runs scored with no HRs is definitely different.
  16. I think any manager would've sent Sale back out there. I'm surprised he got hit so hard, after breezing through the previous innings. I'm sure Sale would've been pulled after the leadoff walk, if the score had been closer. You take all the fun out of "hindsight". do you know that?
  17. I may have been high as a kite at the time, but wasn't Pedroia's comment right after Barnes threw one one at Machado's head? I can't say I blame Pedroia for wanting to distance himself from such a dumbass move.
  18. They've already shown what they're capable of, when they went on their 6 game win streak in May (which you called BTW, LOL). They averaged almost 8 runs/ game, during that streak. They're capable, they're just not very consistent.
  19. Thanks, Slasher.
  20. There aren't many teams out the that run on all cylinders, all the time. Frustrating as it is to watch sometimes, the offense doesn't concern me as must as the iffy starting rotation. Relying on Sale and Pomeranz to carry this team into the playoffs has trouble written all over it. The Sox will need to win close games, if they make the playoffs. I don't see Price and Porcello being up to the task.
  21. Games like last night are frustrating, when you know 2 or 3 runs is all they need and they can't manage 1.
  22. Nope, the 2013 team was just "lucky".
  23. They certainly can't be any worse than last night. It's pretty sad when your most productive hitter is the pitcher. Enjoy the game.
  24. Partying too much?
