Evan Longoria is a T-1000 and the Red Sox are "John Conner"

WTF. Evan Longoria eats piece of crap Lester fastballs for breakfast. I haven't seen a player have that much natural ability since Rance Mulliniks!

Ramon Ramirez: The Omen (to ALE batters)



Ramon Ramirez... will... eat... your... brains... Texiera. Seriously, though, he is pretty scary up there to opposing batters.

Bullpen Booyah!

Yeah, so Saito gave up a homerun. Big deal. No bullpen will top the Sox. Ramon Ramirez made Carl Crawford puke in his mouth last night. I'm pumped!!! (photo soon)

Rocco Baldelli Makes Everyone Look Stupid


(Wikipedia) Rocco Baldelli attended the PEGASUS Gifted and Talented middle-school program at La Salle Academy in Providence before switching to Bishop Hendricken High School in Warwick, Rhode Island, for high school. There he posted a 4.25 grade point average and often tutored other students in physics. He was also a three sport star, excelling at baseball, basketball, and volleyball and was selected in the first round of the 2000 amateur draft. He has said that if he had not signed with Tampa Bay, he would have attended Wake Forest University, rather than Princeton.

Good morning Red Sox Nation. It's almost July. Rays in first? The Okie Dokie has been a high school fast ball. We lost two NL series' and what else... Buchholz flop (sue me, alright), a Colon blow, Manny's Hammies, Lowell's jazz hands, Coco Crisp's head-first sliding addiction, Jacoby Ellsbury's ailments, Timlin's old age... what's next!

Shrunken Steriod Balls, I mean, Golden Thongs

Somewhere in the bowels of the Bronx, there is a three-dollar hooker without her golden thong...



From the New York Daily news:

The key to turning the Yankees season around could be under Jason Giambi's pinstriped pants.

The Yankee slugger revealed Friday he slips on a gold lamé thong with a flame-line waistband when he's trying to get out of a hitting slump - and he's shared it with his teammates.

"It works every time," Giambi told the Daily News after his secret was outed on Portfolio.com.

Derek Jeter agreed that Giambi's thong works, although "it's so uncomfortable running around the bases."

"I had it over my shorts and stuff," he said. "I was 0-for-32 and I hit a homer on the first pitch. That's the only time I've ever worn it."

Johnny Damon also admitted donning the golden panties "probably three times."

"I may need to wear it again soon," said Damon, who is batting a mediocre .255.

What is the secret of Giambi's golden thong?

"You're not worrying about your hands or your balance at the plate," Damon said. "You're worried about the uncomfortable feeling you're receiving."

In the earlier interview with Portfolio.com, Giambi claimed he also hung his thong in the lockers of teammates Bernie Williams, Robin Ventura and Robinson Cano when they had trouble generating runs.

"I only put it on when I'm desperate to get out of a big slump," Giambi said.

The News showed its support for the sagging Yankees by delivering 26 golden thongs to the clubhouse - one for every player on the team and manager Joe Girardi.

Damon accepted his with a smile, saying, "I will definitely wear it if I can."

The Yanks need something - they scored just six runs so far this week and are mired in the cellar despite having the biggest payroll in baseball.

Giambi - whose 2008 salary, $23.4 million, is the second highest in the majors - is struggling. He's hitting .181 with 7 homers and just 20 RBI.

While Giambi's silky secret may come as a shock to his fans, it wasn't news to his teammates.

"Whoever is on slumps, puts it on," catcher Jorge Posada admitted yesterday. "I don't know if it works. I haven't worn it yet."

Posada added that "a lot of players have worn it," but he didn't name names. Asked if the thong got washed between wearings, he gave a cringe-worthy answer. "Ask Jason," said Posada. "Jason is a little strange."

Yankee outfielder Bobby Abreu recoiled and threw his arms up in the air when a reporter waved a variation of Giambi's shiny underwear in his face.

"I don't know anything about that," Abreu insisted, though his bulging eyes said otherwise.

The question that appeared to get Abreu's boxers in a bunch made Mets catcher Brian Schneider chuckle before last night's Subway Series opener was rained out.

"There's no thongs being passed around the Mets," Schneider said. "Everybody's got their own lucky charm."

Giambi said the thong gets washed between wearings and he's had it since 1996, when he played for the Oakland Athletics. He said the company that provided him with undergarments made it for him as a joke - and he's been sharing the joke with his teammates ever since. The lucky undies were hanging in his locker yesterday.

"You've got to come and ask for it," he said. "That's the way it works."

Giambi's performance-enhancing trick ranks as one of the flashiest in a sport rife with superstitions, but the 37-year-old slugger is probably not the first ballplayer to boost his game by wearing offbeat undergarments.

Baseball lore is rife with stories about superstitious players wearing lucky boxers, or lucky T-shirts, or lucky socks - over and over again.

In the movie "Bull Durham," up-and-coming pitcher Nuke LaLoosh (played by Tim Robbins) was talked into wearing a black garter belt.

That way, LaLoosh explained, he can "keep one side of my brain occupied when I'm on the mound, thus keeping the other side slightly off-center, which is where it should be for artists and players."

In the Portfolio.com interview, Giambi didn't explain his thinking behind the thong, but then that's not his style.

The hard-partying, heavy-metal-loving, strip-joint-frequenting, Penthouse-reading Giambi said he is a Yankee cut from the Mickey Mantle mold.

Giambi bragged that his teammates called him a "modern-day Mick because I could play all day and party all night."

Bullpen or Pigpen? You make the call.

So, how did a grand slam by Hideki Okajima make you feel? It made me feel like someone smeared pig crap on my upper lip. Manny Delcarmen is hit or miss. Craig Hansen in ugly. Javier Lopez is mediocre. Paps is sub par. What the hell is going on? Four games lost in a row and now were facing an unfamilar Brew Crew??? Why don't we just spoon feed Tampa first place. The Red Sox Bullpen needs a slop-cleaning!

I really think it's time for Timlin to start managing AA ball and not pitch for us anymore. I love Timmah more than most, but it's time to put the racehorse to sleep, kids.

Clay Buchholz Makes Theatrical Debut

Last night, The Boston Red Sox organization premiered its own original theatrical masterwork:



Clay Buchholz was a stud last night. No, not the kind that Diana Souza, the pink capper from Melrose, thinks Master Buchholz is, but one the workhorse starting pitcher ilk. Clay gave RSN 7+ innings with under three earned runs last night at the Trop in St. Pete.

I think Terry's Take last night was an erroneous one. Some Okie Dokie would have put up a W and cure our Floridian headache.

Also from Young Buch: 9K, 3 hitter... but an L thanks to TF.

Buying Red Sox Tickets Made Easy


Here are a few easy methods to buying Red Sox tickets online:

#1 - ALWAYS CHECK A FEW DAYS BEFORE YOUR POTENTIAL FENWAY PARK EXPERIENCE...The Boston Red Sox always release tickets in small portions as game day approaches. There are usually single seats to Red Sox games availble. I know, "but you wanna go with a friend." Buy two single seats, chill in standing room and scope things out when you get to the park. You will most likely find a couple together by the third inning.

#2 - THE FENWAY PARK SCALP FREE ZONE LOCATED A GATE B...This method of purchasing red sox tickets is especially good if you are by yourself and have a spontaneous urge to hit up Fenway Park. Starting two hours before game time, fans have a chance to unload their tickets at face value. The same method in #1 can be applied if you're with a friend.

#3 - PERSISTENCY WITH THE MOUSE...KEEP CLICKING AWAY!...be fast and ignore the "Tickets are unavailable in the quantity selected" or "Due To High Volume" messages. Usually after a dozen or two tries, you'll get something...sometimes even in pairs!!!

#4 - RED SOX YANKEES TICKETS ONLINE BLACKOUT...using step #3, you can now get single seats fairly easily to Yankees games at Fenway Park. Who cares if you bring someone...everyone is your friend in The Fens during these bloody battles.

What's a pink capper? Well it was discussed among 5 fans in Section 9 of the RF Box section at Fenway the other night after this pink capper told Jon Lester to go fuck himself for giving up a run. A pink capper doesn't necessarily own a pink cap (out of respect for the ladies of RSN that own a pink cap) but has a rather dumbed-down fanship with their team. Here's some examples:

OMG! Jacoby Ellsbury is SOOOOH HAAAHHT!
OMG! J.D. Drew is like the player I will like this yeah!!!!
OMG! Lester's like a loser for pitching bad...
etc...

There are plenty of women in RSN that know what Rich Garces' ERA was in 2001.

The pink capper is an uninformed baseball fan that enjoys the human anatomy of a ballplayer rather than his talent. They usually double fist beers and curse out loud in front of small children.

The one pictured was easy to make fun of us to the point where she birded us... Bill Lee would be proud of this!

Chewbacca!!! What a .... lefty?

I'm very concerned about Jon Lester's potential this season. He's in my fantasy roster... I have his player tee (with number 62, bandwagoneers...) but I just don't think he's gonna cut the mustard. I have him at 12-11 with a 4.50 ERA in my head. If not him, than who? Chewbacca? Mark Redman? Johann San...oh...nevermind.

Out of respect for Jon Lester, let's all scowl like him at the park when he's pitching...

Eephusticated Bill Lee writes his 4,323rd Book


Check out Sox hall of famer Bill Lee's new book entitled Baseball Ecentrics. It tells the story of how pitcher Bo Belinski literally screwed himself out of baseball and others...written by baseballs ultimate eccentric himself!

My favorite baseball eccentrics:

-Doc Ellis (No hitter on acid)
-Steve Carlton (Yoga in the locker room)
-Tim "Rock" Raines (coke in the outfield)
-Roger McDowell (invented the rally cap)
-Barry Zito (tie designing guitar slinger)

Bartolo Colon will never ever be a decent pitcher ever again. Here's him in a uniform that's more suitable.

If I am wrong than it's better than being right, right? I hope I'm wrong, but pretty sure he blows...Cosmetically, he kinda reminds me of Rich Garces out there. Fat, babyface, round... I suppose it's better than another season of David Wells.

Shocker: Curt's Chillin' (on the DL)

The only way you'll see Schilling on the mound before August is in a video game. He's suprisingly been placed on the DL.

My problem with Schill, and there are obviously problems, is the whole getting fat thing in the offseason due to video games and poker matches. Curt should follow Manny's born-again diet of greens. Curt needs to get a vegetable steamer and take some Metamucil instead of bitching and moaning on EEI. But hey, Curt can get a jump start on his new video game company with the millions he'll get for doing nothing. Yeah, yeah... I know he'll be rehabbing. I'm just venting.

10 Facts about Schill that aren't so bad:

1. He's a family man who loves his wife.
2. He loves video games.
3. He's charitible.
4. The bloody sock.
5. The whole sub-two post-season ERA thing.
6. The "wickid hahd" Dunkin' Donuts commercial.
7. The fact that he hates Barry Bonds.
8. The fact that he hates the Yankees.
9. He married a hot TV reporter.
10.He mentors young pitchers.

The Smoked Dredlocks of an Olde Man(ny)



I just read mlb.com's article on manny's aging body and new eating habits. Manny is the 21st century Yogi Berra. I wonder what his Afflac commercial will be like. Maureen Mullen of mlb.com quote him saying, ""I like it. I don't need to read a whole book to know what it's about. It's about this," he said, pointing to his head. "It's about what you want. If I come to you and tell you I want to take you to my house and cook you a steak, then you'll know..." Good old Manny is eating greens now, too! He said, "if it's green, it's good for you." Even if you make 'em with brownies, right Manny?

But, seriously. Manny will produce...and he'll being eating produce while doing it.
