“Stay Down, You Bastards.”

by Red on September 30, 2012

Attention, 2012 Red Sox. Red here.

You got anything left in the tank? Any semblance of a spark that could ignite a five run rally or, God help us, a multiple home run game? A burning desire to make some kinda statement this season other than, “Thank you, sir, may I have another”?

Then save that shit for the Yankees.

Seriously.

As far as today’s last game against Baltimore goes, don’t be ashamed to imagine Burgess Meredith screaming, “Stay down, you bastards!” every time the Orioles go yard against you.

It’s just that simple. Lollygag today, eat lighting and crap thunder starting Monday.

That’s the difference between a winter of being “those bums” or “those bums who at least forced the Yankees into a one-game wild card playoff.”

Mookie, always do the right thing.

Yep, save whatever life we have for the Yankees. I'd love to see them not win the division after they were so cocksure of themselves a month or so ago.  And then sadly owners need to purge our coaching staff, purge the rest of the pitching staff that we don't want (I vote for Lester, Bard, Lackey, Eceves, and anyone else that can't pitch, or who can barely pitch but WINES about it when he doesn't like where he's pitching.   Then look for a decent manager and let him pick his staff.  I'm not sure John Farell is the correct choice.  Look at Toronto. Not a sterling performance I'd say.   Sign Big Poppy- but not at the outrageous amount he wants, sign Cody Ross, and start rebuilding a team that wants to play like a team not just workers heading to a job site for a days wages!   Fingers crossed for a decent 2013.  It has to be better than 2012 right?

@SandiJones Step away from the ledge. Lester stays, Bard will go back to the 8th inning, and no one will take Lackey. Hell, he might actually pitch well. I do agree we sign Ross and Papi.

Crazy thought.... What if BV is gone and we try to resign Youk to play 1st?

@VJ in Stuttgart @SandiJones But Would Youk want to come back to the Mad House? Agreed he is a much better 1st baseman than a 3rd baseman.  Once you get free you may never want to return.  Lester can stay if his ATTITUDE improves.  Bard just gets too nervous.  He's no better in the 8th inning than the 1st inning.  Make him an outfielder- we know he can throw, he just can't pitch.  Yeah, I agree no one wants Lackey but one can hope.

Have to agree..... If they have any fight, do it against the MFY's.

It seems that Zach Stewart got your memo, Red.
