I dont have sympathy for Jenks here. He has a job that requires him to stay in some sort of shape, and all of the little nicks and knocks that bugged him this year, including the kidney stones, seemed to revolve around his poor overall fitness. Ozzie really didnt said anything different that he hasnt said in the past, I dont know why Bobby feels like he is being scapegoated now. |

With your title, I thought that Oz was asking Jenks to wear a bra. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

JC is the clever. Regardless, Bobby needs to be in shape, or just be dominant again, because no one complained when Ozzie did the Wide-and-Tall gesture. |

Bobby’s already on tenuous grounds in this organization. If I were him I’d watch what he says.

From Jenks' comments, he would seem oblivious to the fact that he has very little trade value and won't be playing anywhere else but with the Sox in 2010. That is unless Jenks is doing well near the deadline, ups his value and the sox are out of contention/ have another option at closer to replace him.
I still think the sox comments about conditioning near the end of the year/ right after? were intended to spur Bobby to keep in shape in the offseason. Calling him out publicly may work for him where the "pat on the back" might not. Either way, the sox need Jenks to improve on his 2009 season. It can't hurt having Bobby come into ST in good shape. |

Shouldn't you wait until after the team has offered you arbitration and guaranteed you like $7 million before picking fights?

Jenks is a fat man in denial.
Dear Bob; You are fat. You have a chance to make millions or lose millions. No excuses. You are fat. |

I'm about to be one of those posters that makes bigs leaps and bounds. But he sounds like a guy who has already heard his days are numbered with the team.

I dunno, I feel like I see a lot of teams when they've underperfomed go through some personal recriminations after the season ends. |

I love that this "you are fat" letter came from a poster named "wallyburger." I don't mean this an offense to wallyburger, I just found it very amusing. |
