I like the rivalry and all and bustin balls and shit, but when it comes to violence, then it's gone way too far...It's baseball!

There seems to be this bitterness toward the Yankees which I just can't understand....well anyway's these drunk Boston fans ask for a Yankee hat, they burned the hat at the Stadium in the Bronx.
The cops quickly escorted them out of the stadium.

On another note, I can't believe that the Yankees are staying it in with that lineup. They've got no punch in the outfield and their middle relief still is inconsistent. Of course, getting a few breaks now and then doesn't hurt.

I heard one sportswriter say that the prevailing thought is a starting pitcher can take about 1.5 off his ERA by going from the AL to the NL. He cited several examples including Arroyo (and the opposite, with Randy Johnson going NL to AL).

He also speculated that that fact was the reason why Clemens will not leave the Astros for NY or Boston.

The only reason why the Redsox are doing poorly is because of key losses. We lost Varitek who is a huge important leader for the ballclub. Clemente is hurt and Wakefield is hurt. We have two bums in Kyle Snyder and Jason Johnson. Wells has his on/off days. Then mirabelli hurts his ankle and we're stuck with Javy Lopez. It is tough for pitchers to make that transition but the Redsox bullpen still sucks. Papelbon is falling apart. He's not as sharp as he used to be.

The offense on the other hand isn't doing much. We need big hits from the 6-9 batters. Manny and Ortiz can't do everything. It's pathetic to lose 5 of the last 6 to KC and Tampa Bay. Boston has a home stretch this upcoming week so if they can't pick up the slack, consider them done.

Like shiznit said, Damon is ONE of the reasons, but there are other people I give more credit to. Not to take anything away from Damon because there's no doubt he was a huge part of the 04 WS title, but there were other guys who I thought were more valuable. Keith Foulke and David Ortiz come immediately to mind. (Damn, Keith Foulke was frikkin HUGE in the playoffs).

Originally Posted by Goodfella9783

In my honest opinion, Ortiz, Schilling, Manny & Pedro should take the credit before Damon for the 2004 season. Pitching is #1, so no way was Damon ahead of Pedro and Schilling. And Manny (43 HR's, 120 RBI's and Ortiz (41 HR's, 139 RBI's) both put up huge #'s, as did Damon, just not as great. After those 4 I'd put Damon because he was one of the greatest lead-off hitters in baseball. Had he not been there, Dave Roberts would have assumed that role and stolen 40+ bases and the Sox still would have went deep.

But fuck Damon anyhow.

Originally Posted by shiznit2169

It's a team game, there is no "I" in team. Damon is definitely not the "reason" the redsox won in 2004. He contributed greatly, but he wasn't the only guy that got them there. What about Papi? He made some huge clutch hits throughout the year. Same with Manny. If we hadn't picked up Dave Roberts at the deadline, we wouldn't have a guy with the speed to pinch run and get the steals they needed to get into scoring position. What about Schilling? He pitched on a fucked up foot with blood on his socks and came up big late in the series. Foulke did decent closing out games.

That was ketchup, just joking. I say this over and over, he's a great pitcher but damn, oh the drama.

I hate yankee fans who bash the redsox for giving damon away and saying things like "you guys are idiots for letting him go", "you would never win without him", "he was the whole team". It's so stupid. We WANTED him but the clowns at the front office wouldn't pay him more money. It's unfortunate he left but as the saying goes, "it's strictly business".

I'm not bashing them, actually I am teasing you guys.

I don't understand why you guys are giving up, there's tons of games left to play.
You were playing incredibly a few weeks ago, sheesh...you guys killed my Mets.

Of course you'd think he'd only be good as pinch runner because that's all he did for Boston. He got no playing time.

Would Ortiz's offensive numbers be as good as they are if he had to play 120 games in the field? No way to tell.
