Not for nothing but we knew 3 years ago that this season wasn't going to be a good one. We knew we would be losing a lot of players after last year and that we couldn't afford to keep them all.
As far as signing Quality starters......WHO??
We could have had Randy Johnson, Oh Yeah he's had a stellar season.
Maybe Carl Pavano??? When's the last time you saw him take the mound, and when he did he wasn't lighting it up either.
And nobody here was really missing Pedro when he left.

Losing Foulke to an injury for most of the season hasn't helped either. If he was healthy and pitching well we'd probably be 6-7 games ahead in 1st place
As far as Theo goes, the guy is barely out of diapers and he helped get us a World Championship. Would you prefer to go back the the Duquette or Gorman days? Not me!!
I also wouldn't call the team a mess, Kansas City is a Mess, Colorado is a mess. The Red Sox ARE still in 1st place and it should be a good month of baseball coming up. We got 6 more games against the Yankees and the fireworks should be going off.
You actually didn't think it was going to be easy.....did you?
