I don't think I have seen the guy get a ball out of the infield this entire postseason!!! Just a huge rally killer!!! Everytime RISP he whiffs, hits into a DP or pops up!!!!!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I must be reading the paper wrong. It looked to me like the Sox were up 2 games to none in the WS. I must have had it backwards.

Larry, if they win tonight, and they're up say 6-0 in the 7th tomorrow night, will you still be finding something to complain about?

I am speaking in terms of next season....the guy is as the wind is.....he blows! His glove is not worth keeping him! I want Lugo, Drew and Crisp shipped out for a case of Good and Plenty and a six pack of Coke!!!

Drew has been an integral part of the post season.I don't just mean the GS he had,he's getting base hits and moving runners at very key times.But his regular season speaks for itself though.

Question is if the corpse only rises from the grave for the post season,is he worth it?

Lugo and Crisp will go. Drew? Sorry, his contract makes him untradeable.

Last year, in his first AL season, Beckett's ERA was over 5. How'd he do the second time around?

Beckett was not signed based on a "career year"! Drew had one good season and all of a sudden he is great??? Bad aquisition! Dump him quick!

By dump him quick, do you mean find another sucker to take his contract off the Sox hands (and probably make the Sox pay a good piece of it) in return for two journeymen, or do you mean hand him his outright release and eat the remaining 4 years of it?

"Dump him qucik" is easy for you to say--you're not going to pay the remaining 4 inflated years on his contract

Any player hitting over .500 post season up to the third game of the series is a keeper, imho.

The beatings will continue until morale improves

Dice-k's were not just two runs, but the game winning rbi, unreal. Now I was pretty sauced last night, but I think the evil Lugo, made two game changing plays, grabbing a line drive at the top of his jump, and the force play to 3rd.

GO RED SOX!!!!
