god. damn.

am I the only one that hates Josh Grobin?

I am the most diehard sox fan in the world, but I hereby deem that if they get shut out tonight, (no-no into the ninth right now) I will personally boycott the rest of the season until they make a deal that will make them better. if the deal doesn't happen, neither will NESN be on my tv until April.

seriously, to all the Sox. You are becoming an embarrassment. Start playing. Now.

He wanted to leave. And I would LOVE to go to Joe Torre in LA and play for the Dodgers.

Who is on their team now, Nomah, D. Lowe, Chan Ho and Manny?

That was the dumbest move the Sox could have made. Manny plays right field w/ the monster better than anyone else will, and only maybe ARod and Cabrerra can match his ability to hit. Sorry if the world champs miss the playoffs and the rays and yanks get in. I bet they lose at least 3 to 5 games due to Jason Bay playing the monster.

TravMan162 · Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 3:46 pm Post subject:

manny plays left field, for one, and for two, the monster is overstated. seriously. it shortens left field and if you have a slight knowledge of geometry, a ball of the wall doesn't take a genius to play.

plus Bay has a cannon for an arm, so there's that.

The triangle on the other hand, is the hard position to try to play at Fenway. Left field? Come on now.

Is Bay's long term bat going to be as effective as Manny's? Hell no. But is Bay going to run out ground balls, play with a "hurting knee" and be good to have in the clubhouse? Hell yes.

That's not a dumb move. A little expensive, but not dumb.

I said it before they traded him, and I'll say it again: the Red Sox will not win the AL East. The Yankees are coming on strong now, when it counts, and I think they will be dangerous in late August/early September.

And the Cubs just did absolute work on the Brewers. 4.5 up on the Cardinals and 5 up on the Brewers.

TravMan162 · Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 5:52 pm Post subject:

Well not only are you being a little hasty on counting out the Sox, but let's not forget about the Rays either. Granted, age and lack of experience may play a huge role down the stretch, but until they give us some reason to believe they aren't serious, you, at the very least, can't count them out.

I'm looking at today like '04. Addition by subtraction. There was a cancer in the clubhouse before the deadline, he got traded for people who, at that time, weren't nearly as highly regarded, but yet they went on a massive run, almost took the east, and won the whole thing. Look for a similar thing to happen now.

Brew Crew I believe is going to make a run. They made the best deadline acquisition because they moved early to accommodate the fans. They think they can make a run at it, and there's no reason to think they won't. The cubs started off strong, but history is probably going to repeat itself. They didn't do anything to improve, they're playing bad right now, and despite what they did tonight, they still have three against Milwaukee.

It's going to be an interesting two months in both of our divisions for sure Razz

tylerc · Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 6:08 pm Post subject:

They just won 4 games straight against the Brewers? At Milwaukee for all of them?

ILoveToys · Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 6:37 pm Post subject:

You're right..left field...I knew what I meant Wink

, but there is no way that this pays off. So Manny didn't run out a ground ball he was easily out on. Hate to tell you but a lot of guys don't run them out like they should.

All of this cancer talk is BS. Manny still showed up and put up numbers day in and day out even with the off the field drama. I definitely wouldn't count on them winning the AL East, and I find it hard to believe they'll even take the Wild Card after watching them get handled by the Angels.

I don't necessarily think the move was bad long-term for the Red Sox, but it's going to hurt their playoff chances this season.

I'm not even surprised this Cubs team showed up. Hoping for a come back, not expecting anything.

TravMan162 · Posted: Sat Oct 04, 2008 3:07 pm Post subject:

I love how both chicago teams made it in for the first time in a hundred years and then they both just immediately fell apart. Granted, the white sox were doomed. they had to play their asses off just for a berth and they never got a chance to set their rotation, but your cubbies have no excuse.

Victor, Aramis, Alfonso, Derrek, etc, etc, they have no reason to be in this situation whatsoever. It's no billy goat either: it's lack of character and determination

the WS is going to end up Boston and LA and then manram is going to show boston that they do in fact miss him.

The Dodgers' pitching has been damn near flawless. I just wish the Cubs would at least win a game.

the only thing that could make this night a success is if we find out that Mike Timlin, after blowing this six hour marathon game, went home and put a bullet in his brain.
