  1. We have to really consider whether or not pedroia should be on the Post season roster. He is a one legged gimp and slumping badly. It would be nice if Nunez was back healthy.
  2. The biggest problem with the slumps is our guys are flawed hitters. Most can't hit the low outside slider, yet none can lay off it. Another problem is almost all are nicked up. Broken toes, hurt knees, sore hands, thumbs and wrists. Just a ton of injuries that affect timing.
  3. Oooppsss! Spell check is a beast!
  4. The zombies are back! It would be nice if chilli noticed and snapped them out of it.
  5. csn Wright come back after being out so long? Ps: if we sign ohtani, then whatever happens with Wright is mute!
  6. Plan A, the one and really only offseason priority is for desperate dave to go balls out for Ohtani. If he has had to pimp out verlander's squeeze to get this done, then get the pimping done! If he has to donate a kidney or give a quart of blood to an ohtani family member, then do it. Plan b, if dave bungles plan a, is to sign Cobb. I really think he is on the verge of a break out campaign, especially if he gets out of Tampa. Plan c, sign/trade for a replacement for Moreland, use porcello and Hanley as trade bait! Plan d, sign/trade for a replacement for young. Ohtani, sale, Pomeranz, price, Rodriguez. With Wright, Johnson and Velazquez in Pawtucket! Wow, rotation set!
  7. Our offense is power deficient and it is very difficult in the major leagues to get three hits an inning to score a run! Add in a host of minor/semi major injuries to almost all our hitters and you have a recipe for less runs than last year. Single biggest problem is lack of a veteran leader. Pedroia is not that kind of guy. Hanley is definitely not that guy. Neither betts or Bradley or bogey have stepped up. Benintendi and devers are rookies. Neither Vazquez nor Leon appear to have any varitek in them. The ultimate locker room leader is votto,but he plays in the other dugout!
  8. Can we find a better starting option for Porcello? If we do, are we able to trade porcello?
  9. How does Carlos Santana for first base sound? Some power, plus good on base percentage.
  10. Or a phat bank account!
  11. We really need Rodriguez to come through tomorrow! Hopefully benintendi shows his family some offensive fireworks tomorrow!
  12. Wow! Great win tonight and we pick up a game on the Yankees!
  13. Porcello throws more meatballs than anybody I have ever seen. Only a few are turned into taters, the rest leave batters wondering how they missed the meatball.
  14. any chance Nunez returns after the Cincy series?
  15. The Pomeranz deal was a huge overpay. I do not know what injury he had when he came over last year, but I am 100 percent sure he was injured at the time of the trade. I know in hindsight Espinosa blew out his elbow so the deal looks good now as well as next year, provided Pomeranz continues to throw well. In my mind, dave over paid in the Kimbrel trade and that set the stage for overpay expectations from every GM from that day toward. And for some reason, maybe due to desperation, dave has been biting the pillow on every trade since he got here. Sadly for us dave has taken to pillow biting like a duck to water!
  16. Is this the first pennant race sale has ever had a legitimate chance to be part of? If so, he must be jacked and having the time of his professional life!
  17. By the end of the year, we will have pitched the most regular season innings in our history. You don't make the playoffs under those circumstances unless your bullpen is solid!
  18. I was at a fund raiser for the museum of natural history the other night and I could not believe how much the mummy they have there looks like Sox owner John Henry. Really creepy!
  19. Sale has been everything we could ever dream of and more. Think of how many wins our zombies on offense cost him earlier in the year!!!! Ps: otani will be everything sale is, and more. Desperate dave needs to move heaven and earth to sign this kid in the offseason.
  20. Sale is amazing! I wish the Yankees would implode so we could give sale a little rest,
  21. Price could be a weapon, but given his health issues, do the Sox put him on the post season roster.
  22. The zombies need a jolt. They look terrible tonight!
  23. Rodriguez threw a very nice game. Shame the zombies ruined it for him!
  24. This offense could use a boost that a return from Nunez could provide.
  25. Nice win tonight! Porcello spun a great game. His pitches were sharp and tight!
