  1. I do rejoice in the story that Rowdy Tellez had a $200K bonus due if he could get 4 more AB's this year, as the Pirates cut him today. Screw Rowdy. I'm sure the MLBPA will protest loudly.
  2. Well it is a bit of a stretch BUT, if the Sox win out the next 4, and Tigers or Royals lose their remaining games, we are in the PLAYOFFS !!! The real shame is that it will probably come down to a couple losses in mid-late summer when the Sox had a lead late in the game, then the BP blew it. There are multiple examples. Or maybe it was getting swept by the Orioles April 10-11-12 then dropping game #1 to the Angels on the 13th ? Who knows which few games kept this team out of it ? Better ? , what difference does it make now ?
  3. Even more amazing is that they could win out and miss the dance. Hope not, it would be too disheartening. Take the 81/82 wins and call it a success, Sam Kennedy. Something to build on
  4. This f***wit Shugart does not belong in MLB.
  5. Relief pitchers totally incapable of challenging hitters with a strike. let them hit the ball or swing/miss. Pitiful show between two marginal teams
  6. Fred says what everyone is thinking, except Moon
  7. Remember when the Jays were going strong with Guerrero Jr., Biggio and Bichette , plus Manea. Looked like they would own the ALE. Not so fast, Pilgrim
  8. Cora stretching his shorts a bit with Penrod to close a 4th straight victory, but it ain't over yet Ac
  9. Gruesome Grissom is awesome . He may have a future in this game
  10. Hah, Story gets a big hit. They do respond to trashing when necessary.
  11. And the #1 guy ( also nameless) did not reach 85 RBI's. Rafaela could catch him with a big 4 games.
  12. Youk prattling on about Martin's ability to "fill up the zone" with strikes. He walks the leadoff man, but comes right back with the DP ball. It was all a setup, BJ fans
  13. So Red Sox either lose or go to the ghost like 10th. Toronto has at least 6 outs left, Sox , only 3
  14. Did the Sox slide after the A-S break begin with acquisition of D. Jansen followed by Sims and Garcia. ? Did the clubhouse consensus become WTF? Jansen certainly relieved Wong of a significant amount of catching. Is he that much better than McGuire, who was not having a good year. Sims and Garcia were of no real effect. Weak choices, Brez
  15. Our Guerrero on the mound is just wild enough to intimidate hitters from digging in but make no mistake he is a natural born thrower. That's OK if you have others who can paint the black
  16. A viable Grissom, maybe platooning with Hamilton, could be a step up at 2B next year. No more Valdez, please. Sogard isn't the answer either. Gonzalez has value ( as may others in or out of the Sox system) by playing 1B and 3 B , though not real well.
  17. At least yoshi makes enough contact and Toronto bobbles a bit to get the run home. Why do i care. I personally hate to lose anything.
  18. F'ing Story K'ing with a man on 3rd and no outs, A DP would have tied the game. He is a veteran chaser, no excuse like the younger guys. Not likely to become a Story fan
  19. Splendid, O'Neill is one guy I will have trouble remembering who he was next year, and not care.
  20. Rafaela chases one pitch but delivers his 75th RBI with a sharp single with the bases loaded. Given the contract and ability to drive in runs, maybe the Sox should just work with him a little bit . The outfield play, undersstanding call offs would help too.
  21. But note that of the best 12 teams in MLB, 11 of them lose their last game. Sox could win their last , so there's that
  22. This game. Warning track power for Boston, wall power for BJs. Sloppy sliders from Bello and Sims. Slaten is past his expiration date too
  23. Looked like Abreu was calling that ball in RF. Good thing it does not matter in the grand scheme except to highlight the 2 rookies, Abreu and He who shall not be mentioned.
