    They’re clearly committed to run prevention this year. Why else would Big Sloppy still be on the roster?

    Already some chinks in the armor Skankee fans. Pettite, Posada, Rivera… all slightly banged up and we’re only in May. This is what happens when you field a team of geriatrics. Last year, the Skanks were sitting on a horseshoe all season – this year, you may – just may – not be as lucky.

    Fast forward to three months from now when we see all the crying about injuries on here. Long season gals – buckle in.

    Yes and I suppose your team of spring chickens will go through the season unscathed. Oh I forgot Ellsbury and Cameron were already on the DL. Do you see any of our players outside of Granderson on the DL? Do us a favor got hang out with your white trash fan base and go burn crosses or something.

    I’m struggling to comprehend the handle “TeamoftheDecade”, because I’m pretty sure the Yankees hold that distinction:

    2 WS wins
    4 league pennants
    8 division titles
    9 play-off appearances

    vs. Boston’s

    2 WS wins
    2 league pennants
    1 division title
    6 play-off appearances

  24. Sean says:

    Average age of Red Sox position players (per Baseball Ref): 31.4
    Average age of Yankee position players: 30.8

    Sox have the edge in terms of pitching age, 31.5 to 30.2, but that hasn’t translated into success: they have the 5th worst ERA in the AL, while the Yanks have the 3rd best.

    Sox have also lost 2/3 of their outfield due to injury, and they’d probably be better off if Daisuke re-injured himself.

    I’ve been too busy watching the C’s and B’s to be riveted to April baseball. You know, some cities actually have winter-sports playoff teams.

    I love taking my chances in this division. A Rays team that will not keep up the .700+ pace and a Yanks team where the pitching staff has especially logged a helluva lot of innings the past few years. I mean, AJ Burnett’s about seven months overdue for a trip to the DL. Get your jollies in April fellas – a long way to go.

    The Red Sox don’t scare me. Their players are off the juice. Papi’s sucks. Run Prevention looks like an epic fail. Enjoy Golftober Bandwagon Nation.

    What did the Redsox fan tell the rays fan?

    Our team is stronger because you can place the bluejays, the rays and the yankees over us in the standings.

  36. Sean says:

    We don’t care about winter sports; we’re baseball people. And if your team were any good, you’d be a bit more engaged by the early season. Heck, when you went up 8-0 on the series last year, that’s all any of you Sox fans would talk about.

    The fact is April DOES matter, and it’s putting the Sox in a tough spot to make the playoffs. So enjoy those winter sports; you’re not going to have a team to root for come October.
