pathetic indecent sad troll

once again he mocks children victimized by sexual predators because he's not man enough to hold his own in a civil discussion/debate on most any topic, and most posters now ignore his pathetic indecent ramblings

and for the record this is the 4th time in Elba's short history that hamilton/utley/piggy/whatever has announced what appears to be a self-imposed his exile and taken an indecent and wholly false shot at me.

Adios you indecent shit-stained pervert.

that is until you come crawling back in your next malignant iteration.

And the mutant troll will start his cycle of filth again.

Cora ruined another one tonight.

Mind you, it is easier to sweep a team when you're only playing two!

Yet another day off tomorrow.

Betts not playing well.  Tendi's been off all year.  Pitchers too timid.

Joey has to be better at putting the troops in proper state of mind.

90% of the Sox problem this years is pitching.

Betts (now) has a 5 WAR and still one of the best all-around players in the game. Comping him to last year is almost unfair. He had a historically great year in '18.

Tendi has had on ok year, could use more power, and i suspect it will come, but offense is not the sox problem.

They started the year with no closer or set-up guy, and we know the risk, but the assumption was starting pitching was going to be a big advantage and it should have been with the starting 5.

But Sale/Price have been hurt and been inconsistent, Porcello has sucked, and Evo just off the IL and has been a non-factor, and only eddie has exceeded expecations, but he has been a big beneficiary of run support.

If Sale/Price had pitched anywhere near close to expectations (each ~ 17+ wins with 3.00/3.30 ERAs)  the Sox would have been a lock for the post-season.

I don't blame Cora for Sale/Price.

I blame DD for the BP.

So Cora was a genius last year, I guess.  I missed those posts of yours. 

HEH.

"Offense is not the problem"

In 34 of Sox losses they scored 3 runs or less.

3 games under Pythagorean record

Cash (TB) is a game over

Boone (NYY) is SIX over.

Melvin (A's) even, as is Francona (CLE).

Just JOEY under the line.

Which Cora caused how, exactly?

Still waiting to learn your secret method for apportioning blame, Kid!

I have attempted to impose a ban on the poster known as HamiltonIII.

As we all know, sometimes people can work around the bans because I cannot broadly ban many a given IP address without impacting others among you. I have attempted to address that, as well, but we will see whether that effort is successful.

If you see a new post from somebody that you are pretty sure is him, flag it and I will take a look as soon as I can.

Regretfully,

Josh

A long night in Anaheim.

Tonight, JD giveth and JD taketh away.

So, they pinch-run for him and the pinch-runner gets picked off.

Naturally.

ETA: 7-6, Sox, in 15 innings.

phew! Sleep now. Or at least some reading before sleep.
