It almost seems like the 2013 run never happened lol |
|

nah here in boston it seems like we've been more successful
every year is optimistic cause we sign free agents
and 2011 was a huge success until a new chicken wings bar opened up right next to fenway park |

Ben Cherington is a god awful general manager. This year's Sandoval/Hanley contract busts are even WORSE than Crawford/Gonzalez in 2011. |

@yonnd, and he hired bobby valentine *shivers* |

@muffin
remember when josh hamilton killed a dude? |

You say that as if he meant to kill him when in fact the guy had suffered a heart attack on the way to the hospital and the whole thing was a freak accident. |

I was kinda happy that Boston won in 2013

"the crime of killing a human being without malice aforethought, or otherwise in circumstances not amounting to murder."
josh hamilton is guilty of manslaughter |

Fenway Sports Group is still making huge profits with the Red Sox and their assets, the same with Liverpool. The people inside the teams though aren't very good.
Ben Cherington hit the lottery with 2013, and that probably saved his god damn job. |

what are your thoughts on john farrell as a manager? |

"Fenway Sports Group is still making huge profits with the Red Sox and their assets, the same with Liverpool."
off-field and on-field aren't the same thing.
"The people inside the teams though aren't very good."
that is fsg's fault for hiring them in the first place.
"Ben Cherington hit the lottery with 2013, and that probably saved his god damn job."
hey this is brendan rodgers and the 2013/14 season.

He fits the Red Sox mold as a manager, nothing against his abilities to manage a clubhouse. |

Cherington is probably going to get fired after this season if they don't at least contend for a playoff spot. The Boston media is already on his ass, and especially this year with Sandoval being a total bust. |

5 year deal for 95 Million for Sandoval. His former ball club the Giants are getting much better production by a guy being paid at a rookie salary. |

allow me to rant about the red sox for moment. ranting is fun. keep in mind im optimistic for everyone i rant about, but i enjoy ranting
john farrell has been doing a better job managing lately, but this genius stacks the middle of the lineup with a bunch of guys batting under .250
pablo sandoval should lose several thousand tons and learn some plate discipline, at least eliminate swinging at pitchers above his helmet and 2 feet out of the batter's box
hanley ramirez should learn how to ctach a fly ball and stop getting injured.
shane victorino is getting paid to pull his hamstring every 2nd game he comes off the DL
david ortiz isnt being his old self. i dont think age is the issue, his swing isn't consistent at all
mookie betts has a ton of potential but has made some mistakes in the field and has a very low batting average. patience though
if mike napoli could stop battin .213 that would be nice
the bullpen has been good and the pitching has been *BETTER*. porcello and kelly still have a ways to go |

Giants tried that but he then got worked up because "the coaches made me run :(((((" |
