Why the hell is Jackie Bradley Jr still in AAA? What a joke of an organization. It's been explained by others. You just don't seem to like it.Sox are showcasing guys they want to move. JBJ will have 2 months to prove he belongs. He's already had 500 mlb PA/s, many more than some get to prove themselves.

And JBJ being called up too quickly and getting more plate appearances before he was ready doesn't mean jack. Anyone who has watched him this year in Pawtucket has seen that he has actually made real changes at the plate.

Joe Kelly on the mound. Good Lord, it could get nasty in the game thread tonight. I'm not a fan, but I'll be rooting for a good start from the guy.

To be fair, the rest of the inning went pretty well.

Alright. Throwing Fastball, Curve and change. I like it and don't like it, at the same time. Couple of K's..let's see if mixing it up is the new Joe Kelly.

I know that wasn't 100% his fault, but this still kind of seems like the old Joe Kelly. He's throwing way too many balls (17S 15B now)

There's no excuse for not having pedroia comply with a rehab assignment prior to activating him from his last dl trip. Farrell is a joke and Ben is a failure outside of 2013.

where's mgeotze been? was he banned or suspended? I ask because he was straddlin' the line of decency quite often, at least IMHO, and now I never seen any more posts?

There is just no other way around it....if things continue on the current course...the Lackey trade has to go down as the 2nd worst trade in Sox history.
It doesn't matter if he would've been a jerk about coming back, what we got for him was basically zilch.

Worse than trading Curt Schilling? Freddy Sanchez for Jeff Suppan? Jeff Bagwell? Tris Speaker? Get real.

We traded Curt Schilling? For who, enlighten me. Traded Schilling and Brady Anderson for Mike Boddicker in 1988. To be fair, Schilling was traded 5 times and never for good value.

If you're going to list the Freddy freakin' Sanchez trade, you must list the Dick McAuliffe disaster trade.

Boddicker was a good get for a couple of years.

Of course, apparently you knew then he was going to be a hall of famer, so I am sure you were pissed when it happened. I didn't say that, but Schilling was highly regarded, and by your logic then the Red Sox shouldn't be blamed for not knowing that Joe Kelly and Allen Craig would combust into flames. Also, this trade is still too early to decide the results of, whereas the Schilling trade very clearly turned out poorly.

I did throw out the caveat on the first post, if it continued this way, but you must've missed that. And even if it continues this way it won't be close to as bad - results wise, which is what you are basing things on - as any of the trades I mentioned, or probably a dozen others. If you want just a few more examples: Jamie Moyer, Jim Lonborg, Sparky Lyle.

Boddicker was a good get for a couple of years. He was excellent down the stretch in 1988, solid in '89, and one of the best pitchers in the game in '90, and the comp pick for not resigning him was Scott Hatteberg. Schilling wasn't good for another five years and Anderson had an okay career with one great season. Boddicker was easily the difference between making the playoffs in not in both '88 and '90. Schilling won two World Series for the Red Sox anyway. That was a fantastic trade.
