Forum Post: No, seriously. Don't ever shush me again.

Forum Post: Rumors of Papi's Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated !
Don't understand why we can't just enjoy Ortiz' offense while it lasts. I expect him to need rest from time to time but he doesn't look like a guy who is ready for pasture. Why so much disrepect for more »

Forum Post: OT: the officiating snafus around the league
The spate of bad calls sure have increased at alarming rate. My cynical view is that somehow this is not coincidental with the big push to increase instant replay or other external officiating method more »

Forum Post: Werner calls out media, Globe, Shaughnessy for Ortiz column
Shaunessy never said HE thought Papi was using PED's. He was asking the questions because his readers were asking the questions. Of course plenty of folks are looking at Papi's numbers this season a more »

Forum Post: Game thread 35: Twins at Red Sox
6 hits and 5 runs in 7 innings...that is going to hurt every time. to say this was a decent start is lowering the bar for starting pitchers and when you do that you concede being a contender.

Forum Post: As CONSTRUCTED, cracks are showing in the 12-7 FOUNDATION............
i see cracks in the pitching roster, but they are the same cracks we've had from start of the year. i worry less about batting slumps than i do about pitching meltdowns. batters can snap slumps with more »

Forum Post: Why can't Drew be benched?
