If we can get Elsbury back of the DL list for christ sake..... We might win a few games without losing 8 in a row first....lol

I think the talent thing on the Red Sox is an overrated statement. The Red Sox have perceived talent. Our pitching staff is a mess.

Theo must share in some of the blame for this inauspicious start to the 2012 season. These are his guys, for the most part.

I, like you, hope that Bobby V can do something to fix this. It's my opinion that there are group of players that have already tuned him out and could care less. There's another group that just want to get paid, and are about their individual #'s, regardless of wins and losses. Then there's a small minority that still want to win.

I would be willing to bet that if you asked the players, especially now, that they'd say playing in Boston sucks. Too much *****ing and moaning by fans, too much media scrutiny on every at bat. And that I think is where Tito came in. He was somehow able to keep the nay-sayers and the dark cloud off the club house.

Getting back to Bobby V, IMO there were likely better candidates out there to do this job, but ownership felt the need to go with the "sexy" hire and get the name. Something to sell.

From 98.5

I don't see why they just don't cut Bobby V loose and name Luchino and Cherington co-managers already. It's clear that Bobby is just a puppet for whatever decisions the front office makes.

Good thing these knuckleheads don't run the Pats. Imagine if Kraft said to BB "Bledsoe starts" back in 2001. Things would be pretty different around here.

Hardy on 98.5 just said that one of his sources spotted Beckett on the golf course last Thursday. Is this the same Beckett that couldn't make his start on Saturday because of injury? This is pathetic if its true.

Trade him.

the dude makes a start, throws 120 pitches, and then misses a start. Meanwhile, he's out golfing. Seems to me like he's showing Bobby V, the front office, and us, that the tail indeed wags the dog.

"leave me out there for 120 pitches? I fix your ass. 'Oh, my back hurts'."

I should probably shut off Felger, because he's not helping me feel good about the situation. I'm gonna let it rip on my site tonight.

Gonna be difficult to trade, as the RS will probably be on the hook for most of his salary...

Wonder how his golf game is, probably better than his pitching game.
