The Mighty Mite

I hope he comes back and starts to produce and then maybe we can trade him, he's another guy in the lineup that just can't be counted on anymore.

That would be nice but I'll settle for 1 win.

We had a chance to sweep the DH yesterday which could have led to a sweep of the 5 game series, instead we got another one of TLR's inane lineups. Winning 3 out of the 5 against KC will feel more like a loss of the series, the Sox need to win tonight and tomorrow and go to NY on a little bit of a roll and 2 games over .500.

Great to win 2 in a row and I still want at least 4 of 5 against KC but damn I'm still concerned, when are these guys going to start bashing the ball. I would be nice to have an 11-0 no brainer once in awhile.

Besides the batting averages being low , the ribbies are pathetic.

I think we will win 4 of 5 as the Sox break out of their hitting slump, it has to end eventually so it might as well be in this series.

Well we lost Rodon and Lynn is still out so that has hurt the pitching but this offense is just killling us and the defense is a joke.

I'm just hoping we can just win one of the games today or tomorrow and go into KC only 1 game under .500 with 5 games with the Royals.

.....and 10 in a row if they had finished off that 9th inning comback against the Angels.

All the way at the top.

The Sox are 4 games over the .500 mark since last years All Star break plus 1-3 in the playoffs. Unfortunately it looks like that's what we have on our hands, basically a .500 team with some serious flaws. The handwriting was on the wall and during the off season the FO refused to address the needs of the team, shame on them.

Except for the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Sox offense so far this year is giving the phrase "under achieving " a whole new meaning.

That's one angry person.

He hasn't done it since he's been here, why would he start now.

Hahn's hands are tied by JR. We will never be a premier franchise and have it run as a major market team until JR is gone and we have a new owner.

Exactly.

I've thought along these lines for decades.

Going nuts is putting it mildly, that guy needs some Valium.

I'm also tired of TA's act. Remember a few years ago when the Sox needed a Centerfielder and TA said he wouldn't mind giving it a try, maybe it's time. You can move Robert to RF which might lengthen his career. Can Yolbert Sanchez play shortstop because this kid is probably ready, if not the Sox should try to get Taylor Walls from the Rays.

My guess is Burger was sent down to play second base as Harrison hasn't been the answer.

Yes, wrist injuries can be a real nuisance, I had a wrist strain from hitting a root while golfing back in 1990, it took a year and a half before it was 100% again but AV's is not a strain so I think he will be back much sooner. Cortisone wouldn't help with an injury like mine but should help with any inflammation that AV is experiencing.

I despise everything Red Sox including their fans I'd rather beat them than the Cubs, 2 out of 3 would be great but with the pitching matchups, I only feel good about Sunday. BTW, that goes for the Bruins and the Pats, Celtics and NBA, couldn't care less.
