A sad sack? More like frustrated with a team that is playing like **** and had they not been beaten by the Yankees who were willing to pay a little more they would have Teixeira and the division lead right now.
Well, now we're guaranteed to still be out of first place by the end of this series. The only question now is, by how many games?
I have a really bad feeling we're going to lose 3/4 and be 4.5 games out come Monday.
Smoltz is god damn DONE. If he starts another game this season I'm going to have a nervous breakdown, stick a fork in him and call it a day. If that isn't bad enough I have to see Bucholz on the mound Saturday, god damn it.
And for the love of God I can't stand Ortiz. His good season's were had because he was on steriods and newsflash; he's not anymore. He's never going to be good enough to be a DH for the Boston Red Sox again, guy went 0-5 tonight. I can't believe people have the mentality that we should still be kissing his ass for his roided up championship seasons instead of focusing on his TRASH play off the juice. THERE WILL BE NO RETURN TO GLORY, HIS STATS ARE A DIRECT RESULT OF STEROIDS.
When he's retired I'll look back on the good times, but right now and for the rest of career HE'S USELESS.
And not just Ortiz (thats a given) but as a team we left so many god damn guys on base tonight. For example while Kotchman did have a HR, when down 9-4 against a guy who had just loaded the bases, he swung at the first pitch (a ball), took a ball then proceeded to swing at two more balls. REALLY?!
If we don't win tomorrow then a sweep becomes a scary reality. An absolute embarrassment tonight. Rangers and Rays both won tonight as well and are both right in striking distance.
