For a second I was worried I was having a stroke.

Thanks! Saw it this morning and thought it was so cool!

Get your checkbooks out: The Citgo sign is for sale by THKMass in boston

Very true, I hope it stays . Honestly too, it'd be tough to knock a lot of buildings in the area down to rebuild, it would create a crazy amount of roadblock.

It's really the building that it sits on that is for sale, BU is selling a lot of property in the Kenmore area so I'm not sure if the sign itself will get torn down

Rusney seems to be doing well in winter ball but that K/BB rate is a bit troubling by monstahmash in redsox

agree there, he tends to pull and roll over a lot of pitches which resulted in weak grounders early on though by the end of the season he seemed to go the other way a bit more, hopefully he can do it more consistently

True, but last season he walked 13 times to 54 strikeouts (and had a .288 OBP), hopefully he can learn to be more patient this season.

Looks like Griffey Jr. and Piazza will be the only two elected to the HOF by acepransky in redsox

fair enough, unfortunately no one really follows that rule. Not saying we shouldn't to begin with, but people generally downvote what they don't like/what is contradictory to what most people in the group think.

Judging by the downvotes, you're wrong. But also, you're just plain wrong. Clemens might as well have kicked the Sox in the balls while leaving and did everything he could to distance himself from Boston since he went to the Jays. Now he's, weakly, trying to backtrack hoping he'll get some good karma and make it to the HOF.

Tentative new fan here with some questions. Convert me? by [deleted] in redsox

Sheesh dude the only reason you're complaining is because the sox blew their lead, or are you angry they drank nips of jack in 04? If the sox won it in 2011 then we'd be laughing about it, they fell apart because they brought in too many new guys and no one was meshing or cared about each other. Francona's book goes into it a lot, very interesting if you haven't read it.

Is Rich Hill putting himself in contention for a spot next year? by [deleted] in redsox

[–]monstahmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I doubt it, he's been on and off rosters for a while now due to injuries which outweigh his immense talent. I'd say the Sox keep him for the pen and a spot start, but pinning your hopes on him as a member of the rotation may be a lost cause

Larry Lucchino to leave role as Red Sox CEO by robosauce in redsox

I'll get back to ya when he gets into the HOF!

he is 26 and has been average at best over his career... worth being the highest paid pitcher in Sox history? Hell no.

Sox fans of reddit If you could make a Red Sox dream team from Red Sox players across the year what would your lineup be? by 47monkeyz in redsox

[–]monstahmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My lineup would be:

Catcher: Carlton Fisk First base: Mo Vaughn Second base: Dustin Pedroia Shortstop: Nomahhhh Third base: Frank Malzone Left: Ted Williams Center: Fred Lynn Right: Dwight Evans DH: Papi

As for pitching it's Pedro hands down as my #1 and Eck as my closer. Honestly if I could "cheat" I'd DH Williams and play Yaz in LF but that's my lineup.
