Forum Post: Please Release Cameron
Have no fear, 20M .275 OBP Crawford is near.

Forum Post: Closer to 3rd than 1st.
Red Sox are in a lot of trouble, with only half the season to play. The Rays look to be the class of the league. What they are doing to the NL is dominant.

Forum Post: Please Release Cameron
Cameron has been bad in a mop role. Crawford deserves an extension, with his .275 OBP. Extend Wastefield, Varitek and Crawford. Cameron's play has been the what's holding this team back. Wastefield ha more »

Forum Post: MILLER SHOULD BE THE BILLY WAGNER/EMBREE OF OUR BULLPEN WHEN BUCH IS READY!
Don't do anything to throw Wastefield off his rhythm. His ERA is under 5, and he has been the workhorse on this team. He is the team leader, firing up his team with all that fire in his belly. more »

Forum Post: Francona Letting Beckett Bat in 6th Down 3-0
Tito always saves his water until after the fire has burned the building to the ground. Brilliant to put DMac in the 5 hole, getting the only extra base hit. It had a catalystic affect on the rest of more »

Forum Post: Tim Wakefield is now 9 wins away.
Nothing sad about booting Wakefield.

Given Wake's WHIP for the few months of 2011, he should be the #2 starter in the rotation and the Playoffs. Wakefield is a top of the rotation guy, trapped in #9 starter's body. more »

Wakefield to the DL role. Miller stays in rotation for now. Doubrant to the lefty pen role. more »

Forum Post: AGon in RF--again
Do not put weak hitter in the 5 spot! Move Scutaro to #2 and put Pedroia in the 5 hole. Tito can be quite dense. more »

Forum Post: The Sox dilemma--correctly predicted last week before the road trip started
Actually, reddead, I did have an original thought. There wasn't anthing orginal about saying that going on road games, losing the DH, playing an improved Pirate team and a PHillies team has prospects more »

Forum Post: Are You Excited?
Phillies fans are bad, but they aren't stupid enough to want to see Wakefield over Miller, Aceves and Doubrant. Only in Boston can that happen. more »

Forum Post: Decisions looming:Poor outfield production has Sox looking for upgrades
The Dodgers would be stupid to trade Kemp for Ellsbury. Yes they save some money, but they are only getting one extra year untill a BORAS client free agent. For what they are giving up long term talen more »

Forum Post: The haters in the Philadelphia news media are starting already.
Excluding the 4 fans in Tampa and Miami, the worst fans of all are Red Sox fans. Yes, I'm a Red Sox fan, but few fans are as clueless and bigoted as Red Sox fans. more »

DL Wastefield and get Lackey looked at. If Lackey needs a long term DL, call up Doubrant. Keep Wastefield on the DL as long as possible. more »

Forum Post: Giambi Juice
HGH can be detected by testing. It's called blood testing, which the MLBPA refuse to allow, just as they refused to allow any testing for steroids until the Congressional threat of a public law. more »

Forum Post: Decisions looming:Poor outfield production has Sox looking for upgrades
the trades mentioned for Kemp are down right laughable! There isn't anything laughable about a trade offer of Ellsbury, Lowrie and Doubrant, with the Dodgers also being allowed to swap out Lowrie or D more »

Forum Post: Latest TSN Power Poll
Red Sox have had some bad management and two horrible patches of play. But, unless one of the core players has a long term DL, the Yankees will be in the rear view mirror and getting smaller and small more »

Forum Post: What to do about Timmy? Buch returns from the DL soon, What do you do with Wakefield?
You are assuming only Wakefield could do what he's done in those innings, not that his ERA in part-time dutry is anything to brag about. Your assumption is wrong. more »

Forum Post: Tim Wakefield is now 9 wins away.
I never said anything of the kind. more »

No, Wastefield is not "as good as one can count on". The Red Sox would be 5-4 in games Millwood started. more »

I have yet to hear the words "Red Sock", and it's been a long time since I posted this thread. Henry usually response favorably to my requests. Thank you, John, I'm gracious this "Red Sock" phrase wil more »

Forum Post: Giambi Juice
If the players are using PED's The players are using PED's, but you won't know who because they refuse to allow blood testing. And this "trainers and owners won't report them if they are suspicious". more »
