I think it will do us Sox fans some good to rant about our particalur Red Sox frustrations this year. Please let me start since I love to whine about my favorite beisbol team:
1)Francoma- Why does this tard not have Ells and our other speedsters stealing bases and doing hit and runs literally every time they get on base?! I don't get it. Also, when a starting pitcher is nearing or above 100 pitches and walks the 1st and/or 2nd batter of an inning, why does he wait to yank them?!
( I noticed Pitt mgr. pulled his pitchers literally after 1 batter if the next matchup didn't suit their strengths). Also, cut the crap with the loyalty to players who's prime is long over.
2) Youk- The guy is our number 4 hitter. He's getting paid to hit. Why is he always looking to walk so the pressure can be on our #5 hitter who has been Drew on this most recent roadtrip. And we've all seen how that is turning out.
3) Pitching- I would have singled out DiceK, but since his career is over in Boston, we can now focus on Lackey. In short, he sucks. Bullpen is not great. Jenks is a bust, Wheeler is atrocious. Bard needs to learn to throw a cutter. No movement on that 98 mph heater equals lots of hits.
4)OF- with the exception of Ells is atrocious. RF is a black hole of underperformance. I route for CC to do well, but he is not playing to expectations. Don't think Reddick is the answer either. McD, nancy Drew, and good time Mike C need to be shipped off to the glue factory.
On a positive note, Papi, Salty, Beckett, and Wake are doing surprisingly great.
And let's face it, Agon's new name should be AGod, dude is that good.
Thoughts, my fellow sox fans?
