  1. Plenty of talk about lack of production at 3B. Dusting Pedroia, apparently playing for another team these days, is 28th in OPS among 2B. Although he is playing his usual great second base.
  2. Both Pomeranz and E Rod needs to be more efficient with pitches. They will wear out the bullpen going only 5-6 innings each outing. Look at Sale. He simply does not waste a pitch to waste one. Throwing a high pitch on 0-2 count does not mean throwing 2 feet over the strike zone. The goal has to be 7 innings.
  3. tell me again how Wright hurt his knee? He looks out of shape and unathletic.
  4. the ball was dropped....what the hell was our Dustin doing glued to 1B? And these guys are professionals?
  5. Apparently team is ignoring "it's not me/it's them" leader. Sale throws retaliation pitch to Machado for Betts getting thrown to yesterday. Chris Sale is quietly becoming the leader of this team.
  6. We hit too many ground balls. As a pitch, I thought you wanted to induce ground balls, no? So we are doing exactly what the other team wants us to do.
  7. Wright to 10 day DL for sprained knee. I think it's time to move past him. Knuckle ball is too freakish for me. He's giving up too many homers. Why would you event want him to come off the bench? It's not as though he can ramp up the speed on his pitch.
  8. As we close April, Moreland is 1st in AL in OPS, Dustin is 10th at 2nd Base and Xander is 5th at SS. At $5M, Moreland thus far has done his job. (although he doesn't look to be a Gold Grover) I think we were spoiled last April because so many players got off to a hot start.
  9. In last night's game, we had 3 consecutive singles and still had not scored. I'm not sure how to check it, but April 2017 seems to had more 0 run innings than in the past. Big part I believe is our scoring is too dependent on stringing together 3 hits/walk in an inning. And that's due to lack of power hitting.
  10. Holt ready to return.....WOW..I'm excited....does he have a picture of JF or what? Another little non athletic dude that can hit singles.
  11. apparently Sox hitting coach didn't get the memo about it's all about hitting fly balls now. Let's hope our clean up DH making $20M per year continues to hit hard into dirt/grass.
  12. Only the spoiled Sox fans would think nothing of giving out a $6M contract for washed up reliever who can go MASH on moment's notice.
  13. I don't care how light the bullpen is right now. Why did JF send back out Wright after he's thrown 98 pitches and had the lead? Wasn't it time to give Wright some positive mojo after couple of rough starts? The manager who wouldn't send out our elite pitcher to finish the game leading 1-0 but keeps struggling starter to pitch his 99th pitch. I'm sorry, JF sucks. I've had enough of his act. It's time for him to go. I NEED CHANGE.
  14. Young, Not me/it's them and Xander have slugging % close to their BA.....our propensity to hit into double play negates what little offense we are producing. We're playing tee ball and everyone is playing man's game. I really hate watching this offense. It's not Red Sox offense I'm accustomed to.
  15. can you win Cy Young with 10 wins?
  16. He uttered the words, "it's not me, it's them." He referred to his teammates as 'them'. He will have to live with it.
  17. Xander is going to want a bank vault when he comes up for free agency. Is he really worth it? Speaking of hitting singles at Fenway.....it may take 4 hits to score a run because of short left field. Ugh. I grew up thinking we need power from corner positions, 1B, 3B, LF, RF and obviously DH in AL. You fall in love with Sale. Everyone else is trade bait. That's as far as my loyalty goes.
  18. I love accountants who say what do you want one plus one to be equal?
  19. if JF hates Ross so much, trade the mother. I am so sick and tired of JF. What's his love affair with Holt? Get rid of him. We have too many 5-8 guys with no athleticism. He's a waste of roster spot. Can we get someone who is a manager and not a politician? Parsing of words, skating the issues. A former pitching coach who gets every pitcher hurt.
  20. Just wait until his skills are diminished..........his teammates will be snickering
  21. Will we ever score runs for Sale?
  22. id do it in a heart beat
  23. Well, JF can always put Wright in.....he's probably a better first baseman than a pinch runner.
  24. Not criticizing him for sitting out. I'm just pointing out the irony. A grown man wants love from an opponent that's going to put him on bench but throws his teammate under the bus. I will never forget it. "it's not me, it's them" cries our 2nd baseman....them are the Sox.
  25. Dustin not playing today. He's still mad at Barnes. But he loves Machado........enjoy the f***ing game sitting on the bench.
