Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent
Too early to ask whether this lineup doesn't like teh lefthanders?
Or did this Matt Harrison guy really become Randy Johnson during the offseason?

It's April 3. People need to calm down.

In New England?? I'd love to listen to WEEI and 98.5 tomorrow. Panic will be the operative word.
Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent
I'm not REALLY panicing. I do realize it's April. But it's not an ideal start. Not in the slightest.

@Joe
You took the words right off my keyboard. *This* thread needs to calm down? Possibly the right message, but definitely not the right forum
We're talking about the Red Sox. This thread is on quaaludes.

No, I said that "people" need to calm down. My twitter feed is on fire with people who think the season is already a waste.
As I said on there earlier, "Red Sox fans are stuck in a pre-2004 mentality." It's a LONG season.

So then tweet back. This board != your twitter feed.
If you don't want people to chat about day-to-day stuff, then this is going to be one astoundingly boring thread. My $.04

That was also a response to UNH GH as well.
Heidi Watney is advising people not to jump yet.

so they won't win 160 games...
i'm not guessing the pirates will win 2 out of every 3 the rest of the way either

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent
I'm concerned, but again...it's only April 3.
I don't think we should be worrying about our bullpen if our starters are getting shelled. It's one thing to be giving up unearned runs, or having inherited runners score. But giving up as many HRs as we did over this weekend doesn't inspire confidence. 9 out of 10 HRs aren't due to a guy being a great hitter, it's because the pitcher made a mistake. We made a helluvalotta mistakes this weekend...let's hope the coaching staff can get these guys to minimize those throughout the year.

I just don't get it... every starting pitcher in MLB is pitching lights out, like it's mid July... except our guys!
The season is over. Lock the thread.

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent
Not quite yet.
No team has ever started 0-4 and won the World Series. So when Beckett takes the mound tonight, it will be to save Boston's season.
If he loses, then we can lock it up.
Or we could always do what we used to do: start talking about next season. It's only 361 days off!

Well, it was a great run. Maybe next year.

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent
No doubt. There's a first time for everything. Usually.
Either way, they have to start winning sometime. And I know -- when I think of a stopper who can end a losing streak before it gets out of hand, I think of Daisuke Matsuzaka.
Who knows. We're due for a pleasant surprise. Maybe Matsuzaka is ready to go.

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent
These lineups tito is putting out are horrible. You put your best hitter at third. Its not Crawford, and its sure as hell not little Dusty. Gonzalez is the best hitter. And look, put Crawford at 1, Ellsbury isnt exactly lighting it up either at 1.
1. Crawford
2. Pedroia
3. Gonzalez
4. Youk
5. Ortiz
6. Drew
7. Salty
8. Scutaro
9. Ellsbury
