  1. These 3 are to professional to just go through the motions.
  2. This Red Sox team ought to feel real proud heading home after a listless 3-7 road trip all against division opponents, and tied in the loss column for last place with the Minor League O’s.
  3. This game has turned in to a fitting well deserved end to the road trip.
  4. Semien is hitting 153 at the moment.
  5. The Celtics sucked today, and the Red Sox are playing what at the moment is normal listless baseball that they have played since opening day. Neither is good, but well deserved.
  6. A good manager would know enough to bring stud closer in for a 4 out save last night, or any night he was available. Of course that takes Cora off the hook last night, because he wasn’t available.
  7. Bad trade by Bloom no matter how you look at it. Like I said Renfroe could have been traded for someone else not named Bradley who could hit a little, and play a decent D.
  8. At this point it’s getting hard to care about the freaking Red Sox. The fans were as bad as fans can be to Russell. They broke in his house, and s*** in his bed.
  9. Who said Renfroe had to be traded for JBJ? There was no one else out there? Only the Bloom knows, or maybe doesn’t know.
  10. Different story for a different time, which doesn’t take away from Bloom doing this fiasco.
  11. And paid him more for doing it.
  12. I’ve been doing that since the trade was made, and Moon made his famous head scratcher comment.
  13. Thanks for the info, and I’m all for giving Houck a shot at closing, but I just think Whitlock is just more consistent.
  14. Ok I get what your saying too, but I guess we’ll have just have to agree to disagree. If Frail hadn’t gone down again Whitlock would have been in the pen to start the season, and if Houck would have been vaxed Whitlock wouldn’t have made his last two starts anyway, so the plan was already deviated from, and the last report I had heard was that Whitlock wasn’t penciled in to start the next two weeks. I can’t confirm that though.
  15. We’ll never know is right, but with Whitlock closing is was a greater possibility to win than to lose. I’m not telling you anything you don’t know, but I’m taking my chances with Whitlock over Barnes, or the Sour Man 7 days out of the week. Even though the RED SOX only scored 1 run last night the game was there for the taken, and for Evol, and Cora, and the Red Sox did not take it, and it’s not the first game the Sox could have won this year despite not scoring runs by not having a closer, and it won’t be the last. Unlike Moon I’m not afraid to say I don’t agree with Cora, and I think Cora is wrong by not having Whitlock close games.
  16. No pitching has not been the problem, but do you think the Red Sox would have won the game last night if Whitlock had been there for a 4 out save?
  17. Sorry, but I can’t play today, because there is more important things going on, which is namely the Celtics, so you are on your own today to fix the problems, which I’m sure won’t get fixed, and will be there tomorrow. Have a good day, and LETS GO CELTICS!
  18. 1B, RF, 2B, CF, and C are problems at the moment, and Dugy has also tailed off. This is pretty much an offensive TEAM effort.
  19. A traditional closer does just not pitch the 9th inning. He could have come in the 8th inning yesterday with two outs, and locked down the win, so sorry I don’t agree with your assessment.
  20. Mayer hasn’t played since April 23rd, and is out with a bad wrist.
  21. Exactly, and it’s not that hard to see, but for some reason Cora can’t, or won’t figure it out.
  22. Come on man! Try to keep up, because that had already been explained.
  23. I already mentioned that the guys swinging the bats are the biggest problem, and Whitlock can’t fix that, but Whitlock closing will fix the problem of the games the Red Sox have lost already this year, because of not having any kind of closer.
  24. Cora had already explained the only reason that Story would only play SS this year.
  25. Big game for the Sox tomorrow to see if they leave Baltimore tied in the loss column for last place.
