    2.5 out of first but still in last. Amazing.

    We are 14-5 since the Beckett golf-gate game.

    :lol: >was that OVERBLOWN or what?

    I realy love the way the Sox didnt give up after being down 3-0. They seemed like they didnt give up.

    Even though Gonzalez didnt make that catch in right yesterday I think he better get used to right field. There is no way you can take Middlebrooks out of the line up to much if he keeps on hitting. He could win ROY :D

    The Red Sox have scored the 3rd most runs in all of baseball (265) only behind Texas (291) and St.Louis (270) With the pitching getting better and some of our better players comming back we can be poised to make a run at being a great team. Only if Crawford stays home that is ;)

    was watching some of tonight's game on mlb network. the "good luck to the celtics" sign behind home plate is a pretty classy move by the sox.

    Sounds like Youkilis is going to be traded.

    Smart move. We all saw this coming. He's a fraction of the player he once was.

    Yeah, he can't stay on the field. I guess I will just have to direct my hate at whatever team he ends up on. Between Papelbon and now Youkilis, I need to find new players on your team to despise. At least there's still Beckett.

    Yeah, I had that problem a few years ago with the Yanks. Thank goodness for Brett Gardner and Swishalicious.

    I can't put my finger on it. I just want to punchasize his suckhole. :lol: And I got stuck with him on my fantasy team the year he decides to take the spring off.

    I think they may trade him, but I don't think he is a fraction of the player he was.
    He is getting healthy and very tough out all the time now.
    This guy when going good can carry a team.
    Ask any pitcher out there if he would rather face a rookie or Youk when the game is on the line.
    Everyone loves the new young hot thing, but Will is going to go in cold spell when the pitchers make
    adjustments.
    If they trade Youk I would only do it for a player that can help the team now.
    This team is playing great and you don't want to weaken your roster.

    Good points. I just feel like he's aging rapidly before our eyes and the injuries have taken their toll.

    Eh, if you're not going to pay him, you might as well get something for him, especially since his position is crowded

    We're outta the basement!

    Awesome stuff from Punto today. He deserves it. And I loved Bobby V's reaction after that. I'm actually coming around on Bobby V. Winning helps. We go for the sweep of the Blow Jays tomorrow afternoon.

    During the game, I was thinking how odd it is that in the first three months of the season, we only play the Yankees 3x (actually only 2 cuz of the rainout). We get 16 games with the bombers in the final 3 months. Just an odd configuration this year.
