Yes, I’m a couple of days late with this, but did you really want me to post something on Sunday? Trust me, you did not. Besides, I’ve been a little busy preparing for a cross-country move.
Anyway, In Case You Haven’t Been Keeping Up With Current Events, we lost five [...]

We’ve come back in a couple of games. While we’d all prefer to not to have to come back, count me among those that does believe that doing it successfully does confer an intangible confidence to the club. [...]

Since the incident, there’s been substantial discussion of Farnsworth vs Manny. The Great Gammons sneered at the move, calling Farnsworth a AAA pitcher. Manny, always unpredictable, actually sided with [...]

Running late, as usual. Blame the Red Sox this time. What would you have me do: watch the Sox/Yankees or crank out the ICYHBKUWCE that I owe [...]

That polished little utterance came, as you might guess, in response to a query of the significance of the once buried Ortiz jersey.
This assertion might have been slightly more credible had it not been for the fact that it was delivered after his club spent five hours cutting [...]

Ok, I’m worried.
For the entirety of this young season, I’ve been cramming friends and family alike full of meaningless, reassuring pablum. Ortiz was fine, really. Too good of [...]

Called Strike, originally uploaded by sogrady.
As of yesterday, our bullpen was the not-so-proud owner of a collective 5.46 ERA. In 28 IP, we’d struck out 26, which is good, but walked 13, which is not [...]
We just got our asses kicked, pal. As previously discussed.
