Forum Post: Biggest Surprises of the 1st Half
Iggy's bat for me is #1, followed by The BoSox leading the ALE at the AS Break...July is a tough road with our schedule though, I must say Ells power outage is not really a surprise, but definately a more »

Forum Post: CONGRATS ALL, I sense ................

Forum Post: Your pick: Francona or Farrell?
In response to Hfxsoxnut's comment:

Forum Post: Thank you John Farrell for realizing that Middlebrooks should sit
Hopefully we are working hard to sort out Middy's obvious funk at the plate. Sending him down may be too drastic, split time with Iggy, invest hours in the cage makes sense.

Forum Post: Poll: Your solution to the closer problem
Definately not Paps. Cost too high now and part of the "past". Blockbuster trade for a closer is not a good idea imo. I hope we can find an adequate solution from within our current roster. Give Mille more »

Forum Post: @ 431, who said the KID can't hit ???????
My answer to the thread's question is; pretty much everyone through 2012. We all knew he has a ++ glove, his hitting in 13 is quite amazing and totally unexpected. I do think Management is handling hi more »

Forum Post: The Blockbuster: Approve or Not Approve?
Purely a salary dump. I approve though. We get zero in return. Many, many years ahead of lower division finishes. Apathy has set in. more »

Give Youk 20 games if he can stay healthy playing in LF in order to set up a trade Youk for anything. Do not take Middy off third....play him until the end of the season! more »

Forum Post: Ellsbury injury
I hope he comes back soon, when at 100%, then rakes the remainder of 12 and all of 13. Then I hope he goes to a team and a city where he is appreciated. Meanwhile BC will replace him in centerfield wi more »
