RED SOXXXXXXXXXXX Part 4
Anyone not rooting for the Red Sox this season loves the cock
What'd you think I'd forget? :cool: |
Aaron Boone sends his greetings
|
Aaron Boone goes with Bill Buckner and Babe Ruth - They don't matter anymore in regards to the Red Sox.
He is still a d-bag for hitting that homerun though |
Congrats on your 3rd place finish this year
|
Question: How many times does Manny asked to be traded this year?
|
5.03, equal to Curt Schilling's ERA
|

and then hit 40+ HRs and over 100 RBIs? |
Question: How many times does Manny misplay a fly ball this year?
|
The thing about Aaron Boone, he didn't even win the World Series and practically the whole Red Sox team he knocked out did. Therefore, as much as I prefer other teams over Red Sox, I have to say Red Sox > Aaron Boone in the long run.
|
Quote:
Its alright tho cuz he'll hit a lot of fly balls over the fence |
Quote:
Then again, I wanna see Oakland win it as much as you do. |
Is Johnny Damon still in center for you guys?
|
Yeah but Error Renteria and Kevin Millar are both gone as well.
|
And the Lord said...GO SOX
|
Veritek 2 RBI double YESS
|
hells YES TEKKKKK
|
Wow Schilling sucks
|
Schilling pitched well on opening day. VERDICT IN. NEXT 34 STARTS DO NO MATTER. SCHILLING = GOD
|
Quote:
And if the Mariners were a 1st place team, I'd probably make a thread about them. But they aren't, which is why they don't deserve one, same reaosn why the Red Sox don't either. |
I've been making a Red Sox post for 3 seasons staright so I really don't care if you would or wouldn't make a topic about Seattle. I would think you were just copying my idea, The Miz doesn't think the Red Sox 'deserve' their own topic NOOOO
I think Schilling will continue to pitch well this season, I could be wrong but who knows. For some reason you know for sure that he'll have a bad year though, since you've saying it ever since post-2004 season, totally ignoring the fact that he didn't have an offseason program before the 2005 season where as this year he did. You hatred for the Red Sox (for whatever reason) is funny, but we'll see what happens at the end of the season. Also the reason why people bring up the Mariners is because, lets just say if you kept talking shit about my car, I'd be like "Well its better than yours" than you'd be like "What does my car have to do with anything? I was just talking about how your car sucks" It is the exact samething, I don't understand why you don't understand about that. Its pretty obvious but I guess us Red Sox fans aren't too bright. |
And if you were a White Sox fan, I wouldn't say anything because the White Sox are the better team right now, much like if you talked shit about my car, and your car was actually better..I wouldn't have much to say, would I?
"Have fun with your 3rd place finish" Why exactly is wrong to say "How fun with your 4th place finish" back to you? Just some good old fashion sport shit talking, dunno why people in this forum act like lillllll bitches sometimes |
Wake, what's goin on? Talk to me, man. :(
|
I think it's pretty obvious from the performance of the Blue Jays tonite that they are indeed going to win the World Series quite easily.
|
Fucking Wakefield got shelled. Atleast the Sox new catcher proved he can catch the knuckleball...when it is 3 feet off the plate in the dirt. Hopefully this is just a one time thing for him, they said they always pitches bad in Texas or something too. Hopefully that is all it was, or his knuckler was just off. Need a big year from Wake for the Sox to be succesful.
|
Stima, your logic makes no sense. "Congrats on your 3rd place finish this year". If you disagree, why don't you make your case on why? What you should do is state your side and why you think the Red Sox will finish 1st or 2nd, but instead you come back with "Well your team sucks worse!" That makes it sound like you have nothing to say about my Red Sox 3rd place comment (ie: you think I'm right), so you come back with something unrelated. If you think I'm wrong, argue your point, you graduated 1st grade about 15 years ago so you should be able to come up with something better than a "Oh yeah... well, so are you" comment
|
What are you talking about? I'm not even the one who brought up Seattle, and I never do. I'm just saying, its not like its totally out of the line for people to do it. You simply came into this post and talked shit about the Red Sox, why aren't people allowed to talk about your favorite team when you shit on theres? Why is it againest the rules or something? I really don't understand your logic about this. Plus you aren't even right, I highly doubt the Red Sox will finish in third place in the East, you can post all the stats about how this guy will do this and how this guy will do that but If I was a betting man I'd put some serious money on the Red Sox finishing in atleast 2nd place in the AL East. I have my reasons why I think the Red Sox will be succesful, Schilling will be back to his old form, Josh Beckett will hopefully be able to stay off the DL and be a huge factor this year, not to mention they added a Goldglove 3rd basmen and improved their defense at the rest of the infield positions. I think Coco Crisp has played great thus far in 2 games and I don't see any reason why this will change, I don't think the drop off from Damon will even effect themthat much. All the Red Sox have done this season is made a lot of improvements, and somehow they are worse? They made it to the playoffs last year with Schilling pitching horrible and Foulke pitching like garbage. Now they also have some insurance incase Foulke starts off like garbage again. Yeah they got a few question marks but so don't a lot of teams, I'd be real surprsied if they didn't have a good season.
|
I think the Red Sox warrant this custom thread every summer purely because a good portion of the board is from that area. This way, the Red Sox banter and a lot of the Yankees stuff doesn't fill up the other thread. It's like ESPN.
|
Been doing this shit for years my friend and I would do it if the Red Sox where in 1st place or 4th place.
It was here when the Red Sox lost to the Yanks in game 7 2003 and it was here when Red Sox beat the Yankees in Game 7 2004 (one of the happiest moments of my life I think) |
I was here when Steve Austin defeated the Undertaker via pinfall to win the World Heavyweight Title on Raw is War.
|
I was here when the Blue Jays won consecutive WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIPS.
|
IT WILL BE HERE WHEN THE RED SOX WIN THE 2006 WORLD SERIES
|
WOOOO 2 GAMES INTO THE SEASON YEAH
|
When we win another World Series i'm gonna laugh. Also when Ortiz wins MVP.
|
I think this years MVP race will come down to Ortiz and A-Rod again, but A-Rod playing the field hurts Ortiz. Same goes with Manny, he isn't a very good outfielder so that has always hurt him (especially when he drove in 160 runs)
|
Ortiz would have to put up MUCH better numbers than A-Rod to win the MVP, which probably won't happen. A-Rod had a better year last year without even taking defense into account.
|
Yeah, he batted .021 higher than Ortiz. Ortiz drove in more runs, and also had ton of clutch hits (34 RBI that put his team ahead [most in AL] plus eight RBI from the seventh inning on that gave Boston the lead for good) I think they are pretty had a pretty comparable season on offense, A-Rod won the gold glove though and that's why he won it.
|
Batting average is irrelevant. ARod's OBP was 24 points higher
|
Can't Ortiz play 1st everyday? I mean is their something physically wrong with him I don't know about :?:
|
No, but he might be the worst defensive 1st basemen ever
|
He injured himself every second he played for the Twins, might as well keep him where he is effective and not worry about MVP awards.
|
Yeah Ortiz CAN play first, I remember last year they put him at first a few times. He also played in the World Series. Isn't exactly a Gold Glover tho haha
Papelbon came in for close tonight instead of Foulke...got 2 quick outs so far...lets see what happens here |
STRIKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 3
|
Make fucking Papelbon the closer, his fastball isn't 86, isn't that enough reason?
I am sure this will be all over the Boston Papers tomorrow too, gonna have a field day with this. |
Papelbon was sweet. Yeah my boy Trot with the 2run homer. I thought Beckett did well too.
|
7 innings and 1 run
Looks pretty good to me |
Fluke
|
Well Kyle Lohse is a fluke :roll:
|
What was a fluke? Beckett doing good or Papelbon?
Neither of them is a fluke if you ask me. Beckett has always proved to be a good pitcher, just his injuries have gotten the best of him and I think Papelbon will be great in the closer role until Hanson is ready for the big leagues. |
(Kidding)
Kyle Lohse = This years John Garland Hopefully |
Foulke had a 1-2-3 9th last night. Wasn't even close to a save situation, but good to see that. Still though, I'd rather just have Papelbon. Foulkes style always makes it way too interesting at the end. It always seems like he gets saves by getting guys to "pop out" to the warning track and stuff like that.
|
Foulke's style makes me way too nervous at the end.
|
Wow Schilling is awful
|
Schilling is done.
|
Man on 3rd no outs..Wakefield strikes out the next 3 batters :love:
|
If we stay healthy we got it. Crisp is out for a bit but Stern is more than capable to step in.
|
Damn just tried to buy tickets online, was hopeful for a random single game ticket for like a Tampa Bay game or something but everything is sold out wow fuck. Unless I wanna play 90 dollars to go to a Baltimore game on the 6th of May :-\
|
Skipping my next 2 classes to watch the Red Sox home opener
|
Go Jays
(STFU) |
4th save for PapelbOWN :cool:
|
Goddamn it Nixon. You better be ok. You and Crisp are going to screw me in fantasy.
|
Nixon must be back on the sauce haha
|
Coco and Ortiz lockeddddd up for the next few years :cool:
David Wells is a lil bitch though, had a post game interview saying how he thought the crowd was saying "Boomer" and not booing him after he gave up 2 homeruns in the first inning. I wish they would just trade him honestly, hes such a d-bag. Last couple of games each starter has posted like a 1 ER then Wells blows that..what does he expect? This isn't San Diego |
Ahhhhh looks like the first losing streak of the season :mad:
|
Jays are hot tonight. ;)
|
|
|
Yeah they played well this series, on top of Red Sox starters pitching awful in the last 2 games of the series so the shitshow of games really wasn't that surprising. Hopefully this is just one game thing for these guys (kinda like Wakefield)
To make my night even better, I just got written up at a party at school...awesome |
Ortiz was about 15 feet from tieing it too though :(
|
Yeah I wish my friend hadn't made me leave at the bottom of the 9th. Pretty sure it was over by then. :mad:
|
Schilling and Papelbon all day everyday
|
Joel Pineiro and JJ Putz all day everyday. 3-0 Mariners
|
Mirabelli :(
|
Manny takes out YAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHDDDDDDDDD KIDDDDDDDDDDDDD
|
hahahah nice bullpen ass holes.
just liek last year blue jays> Red sox |
lol right
That was a pretty good game even though the Red Sox lost. Manny is back with 2 homers, Beckett didn't pitch as well as he has been but I think he should have been pulled after the 7th then he woulda only had 2 ER. Oh well though, Papelbon pitched real good in relief again, things are looking good except for a few shaky guys in the pen. btw, 95-67 > 80-82 |
we owned your ass last season. and for far 3-1 jays.......Kinda sucks when you line up consists of two guys carrying the team
|
Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about. Manny hasn't done shit all year until tonights game, yet they are in first place of the AL East (not like it really matters whos in first right now but it shows that they have been winning) and they will finish ahead of the Blue Jays in the standings. As for that 2 player thing, uhh what about Coco Crisp, Jason Varitek, Kevin Youkilis (you checked his stats this year?) Mark Loretta or Trot Nixon? Or how about Schilling, Beckett, Papelbon? Yeah all those guys are awful. Everyone loves talking about how bad the Red Sox are here at TPWW, but we'll see what happens at the end of the season.
Jays won 11 outta the 18 meetings between the 2 teams last year I believe, so while they had a few more wins than the Red Sox head to head wouldn't exactly call it "kicking their asses" when the Sox finished up with 15 more wins and made it to the playoffs. |
Them Orioles ain't doin too bad either.
|
Blue Jays and Cubs both had over .600 win pct versus the Red Sox last season, both teams are so much better than Boston!!!
|
lol good luck with Dinardo starting against Halladay tonight hahahahaha. Nice starting rotation you got there
|
Quote:
lol i know because all those wins against world beaters Tampa bay, Texas and Seattle are really amazing. The team worthwhile that you've played this year is Toronto and we've handed you your asses |
Quote:
Losing last night sucked, becase that is a game they should have won, and today you don't really expect to win, since Halladay is one of the top pitchers in the MLB. Maybe the Blue Jays could finally do something after 8 years of the Yankees and Red Sox finishing 1-2 atop the AL east standings. I don't think so though, Burnett is already injuried and a lot of people said the samething about last Baltimore last year (Although I do think the Jays are better then last years O's) |
I think AJ has to stop over throwing the ball. It's getting him injured.
|
Damn Dinardi gave up 10 H and 7 ER in 3 innings. Everybody is gonna be jumping all over the Arroyo trade now, especially with Wells talking about retirement. Hopefully this opens the door for Clemens.
|
yeah nice line up stima. YOUR TEAM IS A FRAUD!!!
|
Have one blow out win and fans think their team is the greatest team ever. So if the Red Sox are as bad as you say, then how come every other game has been decided by 1 or 2 runs? What does that say about the Jays?
|
The Red Sox have played well for 17 out of 162 games. Lets wait until at least deep into May until this kind of discussion
|
Miz has a point. There's still guys hitting over 400, and Albert Pujols is on course for about 90 home runs right now, lets let things settle a little!
|
I totally agree with you guys, things look pretty good thusfar but obviously shit can change. Especially with injuries and things like that. I don't read too much into wins or loses in April. I pay attention to more stuff like who has been pitching well, how the bullpen is shaping up, how the team looks in close games(Foulke blowing one, allowing Papelbon to come into the mix) etc. Manny Declareman is being brought up for the next game, so it'll be interesting to see how he throws. I am all for a young guy if he is throwing better than some "crafty veteran"
|
Rios has a higher AVG than he does an OBP. You don't very often, if at all. Still early, I know, but weird to look up his stats and see something like that.
|
Oscar Villareal already has like 4 wins and he's pitched about 8 innings
|
Quote:
|
It is only possible if you have more sac flies than walks.
|
lol friggen rios has 1 walk and 3 sac flies. nice patience at the plate rios
|
yeah because he's had 3 sac flies it's not an official at bat in terms of AVG, but it does count in the OBP. Same thing for walks, just in the opposite of effects.
|
Quote:
|
The guy's lifetime OBP is terrible (.324). He does need to start showing patience if he wants to be an everyday player the rest of his career.
|
Quote:
|
but you can't argue with his start this year.
