  1. Any old bum can walk, can he jog or run?
  2. Yea I've continued my on and off watching myself. Watched about 3 innings yesterday that was all I could stomach. I got errands and gym and a grill thing to go do today, fuck carving out any time to watch this club right now. I just hope sometime this summer they catch a little wind and become an enjoyable follow.
  3. My level of concern is frankly for older fans. I think for anybody over 60 or so you're looking at some great memories maybe in the early 80s, a good part of the 90s, 2005 and then pretty much just horse shit since you turned 40 or so. You were holding out hope for a great stretch of Sox baseball, similar to the best of the early 90s teams but with more depth and higher ceiling. Younger fans can brush a bad start or even a bad season (or hell five of them or so) off and look to the future -- older fans don't have that luxury and have a lot of scar tissue built up that is painful as well. Baseball is a sentimental game of course and as you get older it becomes harder to separate the past from the present from the hypothetical future -- and the future is looking shorter all the time.
  4. They rushed both guys so badly.
  5. Start him. Fuck it. We have nothing to lose. The way Dallas is pitching is basically an auto 5 run hole by the 4th inning.
  6. I would like to see some crisp baseball this series. Outside of the TB series there hasn't been much of it, and even that one had some WTF moments.
  7. Frankly our best hope is that he's not completely washed and can put up a 1.5 WAR season somehow. Our other options are trash.
  8. Yea I was gonna say most good teams do not have stretches like that. Not that it never happens but that it's a bad sign early for the Sox. There are plenty of arguments for optimism that isn't one of them however.
  9. Is there a chance the system will have a couple back end top 100 ranked guys in the midseason updates? Seems like it right?
  10. This is one of the 80 you're gonna lose. Wait, that's not right.
  11. If the Sox suck this year Jason is going to be insufferable. I mean I already think he is, but my opinion will spread to half this forum or more. He's a total water carrier.
  12. I mean you scored 2 runs in 9 innings. It's not Bummer's fault or TLRs today it's the fucking offense sucks balls.
  13. This is a bad team with no leadership. It can change but right now is what it is.
  14. There are times to hustle and times to take it safe. Bottom of the 9th is time to fucking hustle.
  15. You build your bullpen dead last except in Chicago where you build it first and it still sucks. You'd think 2005 would have hammered into the FO's how silly it is to try and project relievers year to year.
  16. hey guys stop me if you've hard this before: your bullpen is only as good as your offense.
  17. ump putting in about as much effort as the sox hitters.
  18. I'm starting to think the "true talent" level of this team is 80 wins.
  19. I'd probably prefer Engel to Gavin every single day until Engel is hurt. Gavin just isn't cutting it.
  20. If there was one thing I didn't want to fucking see it was corpseball. This is that.
