red sox nation west!

bard might make papelbon expendable... papelbon reminds me of k-rod... doesn't start pitching till he has a couple of runners on... ended up costing us last year

tupacboy · 04-13-2010, 05:45 PM

Never been, but I would make it a point to stop in if I ever get back out west

What a sorry looking team this is, Ortiz cant even hit a pop up to win a game Drew not hitting his weight.
Heads must roll. If Francona don't want to hurt the players feelings, it's time for him to go?
This team is painful to watch

Can I inject something here? I'm glad to live in Tampa Bay right now......sall I'm sayin.

And the best part about living in Tampa is that, once the Rays stumble, the fans can always dig out their Yankee caps again.

Very true.....but I got a funny feeling about this year......I just do.

No kidding...that was painful to watch.

I at least had decent seats, but it was very cold in the stands...

VTDragon · 04-20-2010, 10:38 AM

Time for some serious shaking up. Bench Big Papi & play Mikey Lowell, bring up Dice-K and let him pitch, Wake can go to the pen, bring up Reddick for Drew - he can sit for a while, put Cameron in left and let Elsbury play center once he is healthy again.
Most of all DO SOMETHING ! Make the whole team realize that they don't get to play if they don't perform. Tito's patience with struggling players is well documented, but if he is much more patient the AL East leaders will be out of reach.

VTDragon · 04-21-2010, 09:26 AM

Hooray we won one! Nice debut for Darnell McDonald, great to see Mikey Lowell as the DH and good to see Reddick again.

One in a row

!

Hoping tonight's game doesn't go as long as the Mets on Sunday... what was that, 20 innings? 11 is good as long as the Sox win.

mosesbotbol · 04-28-2010, 10:33 AM

I'd go with Dice-K early on and see how he's doing. Wake is good in the right situation, but when he is off, forget it... In the big picture, the addition of Dice-K has lead to World Series wins. Whether that was direct or not is a debate.

I would not second guess any decision Theo and Larry make.

I feel like I don't know the Sox right now. So many new faces. It'll be June before I have handle of who is who.

Bruins Fan · 04-28-2010, 03:06 PM

I don't know but the move of Wake might be good ? He is always hurt the second part of the season this might save him?
It could be like in case of fire break glass

VTDragon · 04-29-2010, 07:10 AM

Nice win by Lester last night for a sweep of the Jays. Two good pitching performances on consecutive nights - this is what we all envisioned this past winter. Now on to Baltimore for some fun before the Yankees and Angels come to town. By the way - nice to see Papelbon get his save without any drama.

Hope we get Elsbury back soon, I miss the excitement he brings to the game ... though McDonald has realy swung the bat well - he has earned the right to stick around for a while.

Upon reflection - you guys are right about Wakefield - he is the right guy to go to the pen - for now. I was just being sentimental about the old guy getting dissed.

I hope that this little stint in the minors has made an impact on Dice-K with regards to listening to his coaches & trainers. Time will tell. Hey, maybe he has pickeced up the pace of his pitching too. Well-we can hope.

PeteSB75 · 04-29-2010, 11:19 AM

McDonald has been playing center, hasn't he? Think they will keep him up once Cameron is back? Can we hope?

I would at least keep him as a reserve - he's earned that.
