    The facts I stated in this case were cold hard facts. More wouldn’t have changed anything.

    I don’t think Casas eye at the plate is as good as he thinks it is. He’s taken quite a few called third strikes.
  3. Old Red
    Max they are not going to change things at the spur of the moment. All these pitches have routines that they go through, and Bello’s is focused on tomorrow, and Pax on Friday.
  4. Old Red
    I was only talking about our pitching when I mentioned the eye test. You have to go by some kind of stats when you are talking about what the other teams are doing when they are not playing against the Sox.
  5. Old Red
    I think Casas does better when he swings at the first good pitch, and looks like he wants to hit instead of taking too many pitches, and looking like he’d rather take a walk. He’s taken a lot of called third strikes.

    So of course to you it doesn’t come down to the one poster being realistic, and the one poster who’s being optimistic doesn’t like it, which is the case in this instance, and facts bear that out. Like you are objective in all of this.

    This was all about living in the moment that I was doing, but Moon didn’t want to. I don’t look at things as all Red, which works for me just like the eye test that works for me. If I’m watching a Red Sox game, and a Red Sox pitcher, or batter gets a bad call against them then I’ll complain, but if the same thing happens to the opposing team I’ll complain too. Like all the complaints about the ball girl that cost the Red Sox some runs, which she did, but I saw the whole picture that Casas who hit the ball shouldn’t have got up in the first place, because Turner should have been called out on strikes earlier in the inning. I’ll go with the old cranks thing, but if I have to agree with Moon to be right I don’t want to be right.

    You were the one who said to live in the moment, so that’s all I’m doing, but in the moment at the moment is not a very good time. To go from a 8 game winning streak to a 1-6 skid, and go back into last place in the Div, and out of a wildcard is where things are at on this day, and time, and some just don’t want to face those cold hard facts. Maybe we should all get together with Tom Werner, and form a circle, and hold hands and he can lead us in the Lets go Red Sox chant. Maybe everyone would feel better.

    You stopped posing like you did last year, because you are only a front runner, and bailed at the first sign of trouble. I was told to live in the moment when the Sox were on their winning streak, and I thought that’s what we were supposed to do, but I guess it was wrong that it meant to live in the moment only when things were going good. I got it now.

    Pivetta is due a good game, so hopefully it’s tonight. Someone, anyone has to be a stopper. Rotation, or the pen it doesn’t matter.
  11. Old Red
    The eye test tells you different, or at least it should.
  12. Old Red
    At the time yes, but what about now?Where is the posting now? Live in the moment.
  13. Old Red
    Just living in the moment, and at the moment, which is where this all started. In the moment, and at the moment the Red Sox are a last place in the Div team, and out of the wildcard. Also they on on a 1-6 run. Those are the Cold Hard Facts. Now what you do with those Cold Hard Facts are up to you, and shallow, or not doesn’t change that.
  14. Old Red
    Post #8885 you didn’t finish the whole post did you? It said but you, and others do, so that’s why I would continue the updates to keep everyone informed, which is what you told Dale the other day.
  15. Old Red
    Wha, wha wha! BLUE MOON!
  16. Old Red
    Like I tried to explain before is that just because a team has a winning record does not necessarily mean they are a good team, and the Red Sox May be one of those teams, and just because a team has a losing record does not mean they are a bad team like the Cardinals.
  17. Old Red
    No baiting involved. It’s just so shallow to be a fan, and can only live in the moment when things are going good. Facts are facts, which are indisputable at the moment that the Red Sox are on a 1-6 stretch, and in last place in the Div, and out of the wildcard. Even Tom Caron knows, and admits that. The JINX may have something to do with that.
  18. Old Red
    Obviously there is nothing wrong with what I posted today, or you would have come out with it. Just living in the moment, which I was told to do. What’s funny is how shallow some are that can only live in the moment when things are going good, but can’t when they are not. Kind of like posting the standings when things are only going good,but don’t worry I’ll pick up the slack even though I don’t care about the scoreboard, or the standings this early in the season, but you said you, and others do, so I want to keep Everyone informed. How about a little Tom Werner chant? Let’s go Red Sox!
  19. Old Red
    Middle, and Wake are bad too?
  20. Old Red
    I agree, but the only time Whitlock has been pretty much healthy is when he’s been strictly pen.
  21. Old Red
    Tell me what isn’t true in all of this? I’m I call balls, and strikes right down the middle no matter who it benefits. It’s pretty bad that Tom Caron has to do your standing updates for you.
  22. Old Red
    I can’t see Bello getting sent down now.
  23. Old Red
    Cora has a revolving door on favorite pitchers. Agree on Kike who I said at the time of his resigning that the Red Sox could have done better with that $10M.
  24. Old Red
    Agree 100%, and I have always said Whitlock too.
  25. Old Red
    Things might be getting better, because Houck is looking for answers on why he can’t get by 5 innings. Of course he’s been looking since pitching for the Sox.
