  1. Happy 20th anniversary to Arod getting a good taste of Tek’s catcher’s mitt. I t couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.
  2. What’s interesting about losing 4 games 29-21? Throw in a 6-0 win, and the combined score looks close. Shows me the pitching isn’t all that good, and no matter how you analyze it, or add it up it still adds up to a 1-4 record.
  3. No ONE is exempt from criticism on the game tread. EVERYONE should know that, and hoping, or thinking it is, or should be, and it bothers them so much should just not read them.Gloom, and Doom can start on 1 pitch. From Joe Castig. Can You Believe IT?
  4. Why would you possibly think O’Neil has silenced any of his so called critics? He’s hit some HR on the current road trip, and may even hit some more, but then he’ll go back being K Man for long stretches of games. He’s just like YOshida who can go from GOshida to NOshida from game to game, and even pitch to pitch just as your Hero Raffy who can be Devers Forever one game, and Never Devers the next, so it’s GO’Neil, or NO’Neil depending on what streak he’s on, and will be judged accordingly, so No he hasn’t silenced anyone in the BIG scheme of game threads, but thanks for asking.
  5. The Red Sox put a little bandage on that four game gaping wound last night, and hopefully it heals better today. Remember BIG Brother Brez is watching it.
  6. As I’ve said before you don’t have to wait for the dance to start to get a dance partner. Time is wasted, and losses from three out of the last 4 games are a result.
  7. I don’t believe Abreu could be the best OF the Red Sox could have, and they need more RHB.
  8. I didn’t say he didn’t have value, but just not the kind that Moon thinks he has .
  9. I don’t think Abreu is going to bring you a real good anything unless he’s part of a package.
  10. Criswell to the rescue! Stopper, or not?
  11. I know you need a trading partner, but as the last 4 games has shown the BP needs help NOW. 3 losses late in the game when you had the lead. Don’t wait for another week, and watch more losses pile up, so if you’re going to make a move make it now.
  12. Physically, or mental swings?
  13. I think it’s the big panic before the trade deadline.
  14. I don’t know anything about it. I just looked up a trade grade, and that was the first that popped up.
  15. Pretty much every move in sports gets graded at the time it happens, and I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Even in fantasy.
  16. Fansided graded the Astros with a B+, and the Red Sox a C+ at the time. Graded now that could be flipped around.
  17. It doesn’t matter now on how it affected the ball club at that time,but it did at the time in the clubhouse This is an example of a trade grade that went up over time.
  18. Bogey, and Raffy were two players who didn’t like the trade.
  19. I think the players had a harder time with it than the fans did.
  20. Everything gets pretty much graded from draft picks to trades to FA signings. It’s just the nature of the beast. Grades can always go up, or down, and usually do with time.
  21. Like I’ve always said the goal each season should be to win as many games you can , and to make it into the postseason. If not then why play at all?
  22. Only time will tell. I don’t have much confidence in Brez anyway, but I’m giving him a chance to prove me wrong, and I hope he does.
  23. Wow! All these super fans quitting, and throwing up the white flag already. I said all offseason to wait, and see what the club looked like on Mar 28, and go from there, and I’m waiting now to see what the club looks like ton Sept 1. They may crash, and burn like they have the past two seasons, but they haven’t gotten to that point yet on July 23, and 1 game back in the loss column from making the postseason.
  24. Poor, poor Brez. He should feel lucky he has the job he has, and that’s ONLY, because so many refused to even interview for the job in the first place.
  25. No doubt they need help, but like I said there are no juggernauts in the standings ahead of them.
