So Rowand wasn't decent? And before Pods, the last one I can THINK of was maybe Tim Raines. Other than that I can't think of a single person.

I said ONE of the most, and I don't believe I'm overreacting. I can't think of one thing that happened this offseason that gave me a positive mindset for this year or even made me smile whatsoever. The last thing I had hope for was BA being the starting CF, but that didn't happen either. We get Wise instead.

Is there a point to quoting a post debating CF and replying with discussion about leadoff which is totally unrelated or did you just not read my (very short) post through? I'm not talking about leadoff (and I highly doubt Wise is going to be any better in the long run and hell, BA could easily hit more HRs). BA is a better CF, period. The fact Wise is starting in CF says a lot about this organization's position this year as well as its overall stance.

You can't possibly believe Wise deserves to be in CF anywhere NEAR as much (at ALL, even) as BA... As far as Leadoff, I think I'd rather see Getz than anyone else.

Unbelievable. Seriously, WTF is the point of keeping BA on this team if you're not going to give him the spot he deserves? I mean, this movie was obviously a possibility, but that doesn't make it any less stupid. Jesus, just put BA out there. His offense isn't going to make the team that much worse than what it is now. I just don't think I can defend this organization's f***-ups anymore. This offseason has been one of the most dreadful I've ever seen.

Just give the CF job to BA and be done with it...

Not trying to sound negative, but we'd need a damn miracle to win the division unless most are players are hot (I guess CQ and Alexei is great for starters) and the rest of the division s***s again (like last year) considering I think technically the Sox are a much more vulnerable team than they were last year.

Big surprise, LOL.

Oh? Do tell...

Huh. A true fan for ya.

This reminds me... who in the HELL is going to be our backup catcher???

If KW didn't jerk many of you would not eat

So is Owens. This just makes me laugh.

I get your point, but I guess that shows you the hilarious reality. What point in letting people ask questions if we can't answer them honestly?

IMO the only one who sounds stupid in that quote is KW. Not about Crede, but that defense of Colon is hilarious.

Wow, I heard Owens as a possibility and that just makes me sick and I feel I have to look at this offseason as a failure overall. Seriously, on paper this team would look absolutely terrible on paper without Quentin and Alexei, and even with them it's laughable.

I probably am going to sound ridiculously ignorant here, but are the Sox in such good financial shape because the team just looks terrible if it goes into opening day looking like this? Seriously.

I had no idea Ray Durham was available. Would it be such a crime to take a look at him? I mean, how much is he expected to make?

I gotta go with Sizemore (passing up Pujols and a few others was VERY hard, trust me). Young, great D, great O, pretty good speed... how often do you find a player like that?

Those are some damn good hot dogs.

Which sounds better than a lot of what we have now.

I, uh... respectfully disagree.

LOL I can't wait to see those last 9 seconds on Youtube tomorrow... sheer hilarity.

Hmm... get that 5th starter and leadoff hitter we need? Doesn't seem all that complicated to me, but what do I know. I'm not a businessman, but all I know is that the payroll is way too high for what this team has to show for it. And BTW, it's not like I'm in a minority with my opinions at ALL.
