Posted Monday September 29, 2008, About: Martinez likely to pitch in '09, but not with Mets
Pedro, Boston will always love you, and there's a home here for you...maybe not for a big dollar, multi-year contract...but we'll give you something to hang your hat here.

She HASN'T been to Cinci. Patterson only taps Natosha in hotel rooms during road trips. It's her thing...

I thought that was a pic of Theo from the Cosby show...
Posted Friday September 26, 2008, About: Angels leaning toward three ALDS starters
God, I hope LAA goes down easy. I remember walking down the strip in Vegas with a Red Sox hat on, and a group of college kids pulled up to me in a car, and started screaming about LAA. I remember just swaggering by, saying, "Yeah, won't be hearing you cheer in October..." I don't want to eat my words...
Posted Friday September 26, 2008, About: Cabrera rips White Sox teammates
Cabrera was pretty good in Boston. He was always dancing and hand-slapping, and all that stuff. He got along real good with Manny and Pedro, and a few others. They always showed shots off him clowning around, building morale in the dugout. If he's being an idiot now, maybe he has good reason.

Throw him on the treadmill with Giambi.
Posted Friday September 26, 2008, About: Giambi headed to Blue Jays?
I hope the Nationals pick him up...
Posted Friday September 26, 2008, About: Garland talks way out of Angels rotation
Maybe he has a small ****. Let's hope the rest of the rotation talks their way out, so the Red Sox have an easier time in the playoffs...

Posted Thursday September 18, 2008, About: Red Sox sending Lowell to specialist
Schilling had the bloody sock, maybe they'll stitch Lowell up and he'll have the bloody undies in the HOF...

Posted Wednesday September 17, 2008, About: Red Sox quietly negotiating with GM
There have been a few days, maybe even weeks, when Drew wasn't hurt. I remember he played a whole nine innings once or twice.
Posted Wednesday September 17, 2008, About: Source: D-Backs won't scapegoat Melvin
I bet there was a group hug and a lot of grown men crying. "Bob Melvin, after careful review, you're a fine man, and we choose you, yes you, Bob Melvin, to continue to lead this team, through high seas and low seas, winning streaks, and losses, for you, Bob Melvin, are a Men among Men..."

Despite Drew always being hurt, despite a bad choice in Lugo, despite having to ship Manny off mid-season, despite some prospects not living up to their expectations, despite Schilling out for the season, despite Ortiz out for 1/2 the season, despite have to shuffle around relief and starters, Theo's team is somehow still in playoff contention, with a real good shot at being in first place. Most of this done without having to dig deep in the pockets...and knowing when not to dig deep. Every high money player this season and off season was rumored to be scouted by the Red Sox because of deep pockets...and Theo let them all go. The man is pure genius.

The boy's hurt, not Theo's fault...

Give him the difference between what we would have paid Manny next year vs. what we'll pay Bay. His only mistake I can recall has been Lugo, but what a great job of sweeping that no-talent chihuaha under the rug!

How soon we forget the Dan Duquette era and the mess Theo had to clean up. The scouting, prospecting, and bold moves he has had to make are simply amazing. His ability of getting rid of players is uncanny. Boston fans were scared shirtless when he wanted to get rid of Nomar, Lowe, Manny, Nixon, Hillenbrand, Pedro and many others, but Theo always made it work. Sure, he's got a lot of money to work with, but look at the money he saves knowing when to fold 'em. And the prospects, he brought up Youk, Pedroia, Papelbon, he has an awesome baseball business sense.
