With a low payroll and hoping players would hit .275, we had hope and optimism. This season turned these high priced and talented guys into whiny little kids why don’t like being told what to do. As pointed out in an ESPN article, we have had more injuries than any team since 1987. The biggest thing I have noticed is the full turnover of the medical / training people after 2007. The teams conditioning sucks (sans Papi this year and Pedie). Lets blow that up first, along with cutting the cancer out of the clubhouse.

And Carl Crawford.
