  1. I'm not for forcing a promotion, but I do trust they know when the time is right better than I do.
  2. It seemed like on opening day, most of us felt we were one big bat away from being a favorite to make the playoffs or even more. Now, we act like Brez was so dumb leaving 4-5 positions weak or empty. It's fine being pissed, angry or whatever: I am, too, but if Brez sucks and judging who to get and not get, then so do we.
  3. What Sox players had unclear roles by opening day? Sure, the 5 OF'er/DHs knew something had to give, but Yoshida was the known man out on day one. Mayer knew 2B, Durbin knew 3B and everyone else was set. It's hard to argue against Brez adding too much depth, when we've already needed to start, Early & Tolle, and used 13 pitchers out of the pen. Monasterio looked like added fluff depth, but he's outplayed IKF and even some starters. One depth piece many wanted gone was Wong, so is that something Brez just got lucky on, or could he actually know more than we do?
  4. Mayer had only 5 PAs vs LHPs before today and had his only homer against one. We don't really have many internal options at Woo that look like sure help. so maybe we just need to shake up what we have.
  5. They were going to offer peanut saleman.
  6. Between RHB Story & Durbin and LHB Mayer, Story still seems good enough to play near FT, at least vs LHPs, but it should be 2B.
  7. Only two teams in the AL are more than 2 games above .500 (NYY & TBR.) The other 13 teams are within 4.5 games of each other. The Sox may look s*****, but just about every AL team has major issues & questions.
  8. Woo is 15-11 POR 11-9 GRE 11-10 SAL 10-11
  9. VTek & family have been thanking Sox fans. It sounds like his time in BOS is over. The Sox top brass didn't have the balls to cut him loose, and instead claimed "re-assignment." What a joke.
  10. Could it be that one of the worst batters on the team, who was leading the team in games played and PAs was just given a day off in the middle of 13 games in 13 days? He probably should have already had a couple other days off.
  11. Woo got the win. Anderson looked good in 4IP (3H 0ER 0BB 4K) Eaton went 3-3 with HR, BB and 2B. POR won as Mullins pitched 2 hit shutout ball over 5 IP but had 5BB & 5K. Baez homered and Arias went 1-4. GRE won 10-7 in 10 IP, despite walking 11 batters. GRE walked 11 times, too. Gonzales went 3-5 w HR. Tucker homered, too. SAL was the only team in the organization to lose, and they lost 7-0. D Reyes did not do well.
  12. Ward was activated from suspended list for Woo. Sena sent from Woo to POR. GRE: Ehrlicher to 7-day IL. Tucker promoted from Salem. SAL: Harry Blum takes Tucker's place. Friday: Sansone POR>Woo Kirwin POR>GRE (on rehab) and Labriola GRE>POR Brandon Neely SAL>GRE Mambel & Gilman added to SAL roster
  13. Sonny Gray remains on track to start May 6th. Slaten is due for bullpen session April 28th. Crawford & Sandoval have been pulled from rehabbing with no timelines. Casas, Oviedo, Romy & Houck remain on the 60.
  14. These guys have mostly had 10+ years to "learn fundamentals." One could argue, it might be too late to effect a big improvement, and certainly it can't be done overnight.
  15. Two wins in a row! We have yet to win 3 straight, this year. At TOR tomorrow night!
  16. As much as people have question the line-up choices, this kinda points to Anthony batting first as not being the major issue: OBP 1st Slot Team: .331 .354 Anthony .167 Duran (in 10 PAs, Ceddanne is at .400.)
  17. ...the Yoshida signing didn't help either. Nor Richards, Kluber, Paxton, Buehler, Hendriks, Giolito, Sandoval...
  18. I'm not trying to stop it. I've often joined in the bashing. You are wrong again on my meaning and motivation for this post. It's not crying. It's not an attempt to stop the bashing.
  19. That was precisely what I was thinking about when I wrote that. These guys are damned if they "try" and damned if they don't. The same people who wanted 2 from Bichette, Bregman and Alonso want Brez fired.
  20. Contreras has been pulling his weight. Who was the lousy GM acquired him, instead of paying out the nose for Alonso?
