May Day

May 2, 2013

Clay Buchholz has the most wins of all MLB starting pitchers, on the team with the best record in baseball, and he gets to go home to that. It does not suck to be Clay, but it doesn’t suck to be a Red Sox fan, either. I love watching these guys play.  After a brutal [...]

Six Ways to Tuesday

April 30, 2013

Nothing worse than an off-day just when your team is tearing things up. So I’m glad to see the Sox back in action tonight, looking for their sixth win in a row and a record-setting April. And by “record setting” I’m referencing my whiskey consumption, of course.

You Know Things Are Going Right When…

April 29, 2013

  When John Lackey gets a win. When John Lackey pitches and no body parts break and/or fall off. When…never mind, you get the picture. Listen, I’ll give the devil his due, Lackey pitched a good game yesterday. With two outs in the first, he gave up back-to-back walks and an RBI single and it [...]

The Biggest Start of John Lackey’s Career

April 28, 2013

In the off-season, I picked John Lackey to be the surprise of the 2013 season. I figured this would be the year we finally understood why this guy’s the top dog on the salary chain, and that we’d be lining up to shake his hand by mid-September. In short, I was really f#$king rooting for [...]

Yup.

It Almost Doesn’t Seem Fair. But It Is Awesome.

April 27, 2013

Tied for the best record in baseball with the Texas Rangers? Kicking ass and taking names? Laying waste to almost every team they take on? Pitchers working like well-oiled robots? The guy with the bad hip tearing up opposing pitchers? Who are these guys?? Also, keep doing what you’ve been doing. Thanks.

This is Whose City?

April 26, 2013

  We all know what Big Papi said in response to a couple of chicken-shit terrorists messing with Boston. But for almost ten years now, it’s been his f**king city. He has been the face, voice, and personality of the Red Sox since he blasted 31 home runs and stole the DH job from Jeremy [...]

“Hey Everyone! Clay’s Pitching Tonight!”

April 25, 2013

Remember how back in the day whenever Pedro was pitching you dropped everything you were doing and got your ass to the nearest TV, radio, sports bar or hooker with the ability to beam live TV out of her backside? That’s how I’m feeling with every Clay Buchholz start this season.

Sox Win, Then Some Poor Bastard Has to Tell Aceves He’s Been Demoted

April 24, 2013

Sox win, Sox win. And we take the series with Oakland. Now we have the best record in the American League… which we’ll keep for at least a day if the Rangers don’t win tonight. To put this April in perspective, after 21 games last season, the Sox were 10-11. Tonight, we’re 14-7. That’s going [...]

Nowhere to Go But Up

April 24, 2013

Last night’s game was certainly the most wretched of this young season. It was essentially over by the second inning, and the only thing that kept me watching was a sick fascination that Aceves might lose his shit and attack the next batter he walked. Although when you walk 543 batters, the odds are no [...]
