    4/16- Finale vs. Ottawa

    I really thought demoting a forward from the only line to show up for the first two periods last night would have been beneficial.

    4/15 Borel's Million Dalbecs

    Hamilton is almost 27 years old. He was a deplorable shortstop when Boston acquired him, he was a dismal shortstop last season, and he has been a dreadful shortstop this season. I am starting to suspect this might have less to do with development and more to do with wasting time on square pegs...

    What Was The Red Sox Starting Lineup For Your First Home Opener in Person?

    That game may not have been the worst defensive lineup ever, but that season did not lack for strong contenders.

    What Was The Red Sox Starting Lineup For Your First Home Opener in Person?
