This team is terrible

[PissedPrincess]

Babs said early in ST 85 wins. I say 80-82. Face it, this team isn't very good.

We have one pitcher worth a shit, Pedro. Don't give me that Lowe crap. He's been hammered since ST. It's obvious he's lost it. Last year was a fluke.:angry:

Wake, I love him, but he's a .500 pitcher. Fossum and Burkett are missing links. The bullpen would be funny if it wasn't so tragically HORRIBLE.:angry:

We can't hit in the clutch, our D is suspect.

We've lost 3 games to three bad teams. When we play a good team, we're gonna get killed.

WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!:cool:

Who cares? We lost.....again.:angry:

But I spit my beer all over laughing at your attempt to cheer me up. Gotta love Ray.

[rockin500]

i try! gotta find the silver lining sometime.

i wonder what babs is gonna say tomorrow. :)

[PissedPrincess]

Babs will say this.

Embree sucks, but I'm not giving up on Lowe yet. Relax PP, it's only 3 losses. However, you notice Blowmah didn't hit in the clutch again.

That's what he'll say.:cool:

[Michlee60]

Gotta agree... this team is horrible. The games are too painful to watch already

[PissedPrincess]

Hi Mich. When I saw you, I thought, okay, he'll point out a positive. :( If you're down too, we're screwed.:cry:

Seriously though, we thought the pen was bad last year? This is awful.

[BPBlueSox]

I bet they win at least 90.

[rockin500]

not if they continue in this vein dan! these are games that they need to win.

You are wrong, missy! :D

Derek Lowe has me worried. I can excuse one shaky start, but "aces" do not have two shaky starts in a row. Lowe's control is clearly not there. Christ, this pitching staff is walking WAY TOO MANY batters.

And yes, Embree sucks.

I'm afraid you are right about playing good teams. I am worried about having to face pennant contenders. Our pitchers are going to get SLAUGHTERED like the Iraqi army. Our only hope will be to outslug them, which we may be able to do.

[PissedPrincess]

What makes you think we could outslug an ant.:angry:

When facing good pitching, we crumble.:angry: Imagine what will happen when we face Hudson? Mulder? Zito? Clemens? Petite?Mussina? Anderson? Radke? etc.....etc.....

:barf:

Time to wave the white flag.:cry:

[SlushyBOB]

Well you still have 2 things going for you:

A) It's still early.

2) You have a lot of posts in your forum!

[PissedPrincess]

3) my team is so pathetic fans from other teams can only console me with the fact we have a lot of posts.


:cry: :cry: :cry:

[SlushyBOB]

Actually I think you're record is better than mine now.

[PissedPrincess]

Yes, but Slush, you've actually faced REAL competition.

We've lost 3 games. TO TAMPA THE O'S AND JAYS!!!

:cry: :cry: :cry:

[rockin500]

i hope casey has miracolously found a new pitch, cuz his current ones are no good.

but i still think they'll win today. :) i have faith. at least they upgraded better than the cubs tried last year. so i think the sox will have more than 67 wins!

[Cyberlibrarian]

Sox had more than 90 wins last year. The Mets had 75. I'd say the Sox were better last year than the Mets were.

As for this year, you still have double-digit numbers of games against the Terrible Trio in the AL East. Get the kinks out, and you'll be fine.

Julie --> :itsok: <-- Jacqui

[PopTop]

Cold start, that's all it is ... I've still got faith in Lowe coagulating his feces ... It is bewildering why the pen is so sucky, I thought it should be deeper than last year's Red Sox relief corps ... And I'm convinced the offense will score enough along the way to win 85+ ... Do not wave a white flag yet, Princess.

Gotta' be like Oddball in Kelly's Heroes: Positive waves, babe, positive waves.

[PissedPrincess]

Thanx Jules and Pops.

Very distraught.:cry:

Very distraught.:cry: I can relate, believe me. I was thisclose to throwing dangerous things at my TV when Armando Benitez blew that game on Sunday.

[renuszm]

I think this team is still good as well. One problem that I noticed yesterday was that they were constantly stranding runners. I think they will tonight anyway with Fossum on the mound.

[~*TiGeRs f@N*~]

you wanted to hear something to cheer you up Jacqui? ok... my team is 0-7.....


feeling any better? ;)

[PissedPrincess]

THIS TEAM SUCKS!
