I have been watching this Red Sox team and realized something. I don't like a lot of people on the team.... like at all. It's bad enough that we are 4-8 but it's even worse that the only people I can slightly tolerate on this team are Adrian Gonzalez, David Ortiz, Dustin Pedroia, Vicente Padilla, Felix Doubront and I guess Mike Aviles and Alfredo Aceves.
Let's go down the line up;
Even though the injury isn't his fault and I don't know much about him there is something about Jacoby Ellsbury I can't stand. It may be his face or it could be the way the media got to me and now I believe he's a prima donna and a wuss.
Kevin Youkilis is an asshole. It's pathetic how he has behaved, I expected him to take the Pedroia roll and be a true leader of this team, but more recently it seems he wallows to the Big Bad Bobby Valentine than accept the challenge. As a player he is no longer the OBP machine he once was and all he does is look goofy when he comes up to plate with that ridiculous stance. Also, I'm sick of the Yoouuuukkkkking at the ball games they really should be booooooooos at this point.
Cody Ross/ Ryan Sweeney are on the team. I know there is nothing I should hate these 2 players, but I'm pissed that they are on the roster in a major roll. Cody Ross has been a pleasant surprise thus far, but he shouldn't be part of a major markets team. Maybe a bench player but not a starting player. Ryan Sweeney's mom called him unimpressive. Also he should be a bench player.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia/ Kelly Shoppach both are awful. Where is Ryan Lavarnway? I don't care what he is doing in the minors or how he is struggling defensively, I just want a guy that isn't an automatic out in the bottom of the order.
Josh Beckett; he's pitched will recently, he's still a dick. Ever since our unpleasantness I can't ever support him again..... ever.
Jon Lester isn't an Ace, and the fact that he needed to bitch at a newspaper to so he is, is pathetic. Jon Lester has reached his ceiling, he is a 2 starter, The Captain was right all along.
Clay Buchholz is done. He had 1 good yea, we should trade him and salvage any remaining value. He will never be the guy he was a couple years ago, he's fragile and when he's healthy he's not good. I don't know why us as Sox fans sit around waiting for Buchholz to return, guess what? It's not happening.
Bobby Valentine; I wanted to defend him, I did. I want his head on a stake outside Fenway next to Francona's. I'm for the most part fine with making all the players uncomfortable, I just wished he didn't backtrack from all of them. I hate what he is doing on the field, leaving Bard out there in the 6th was inexcusable and cost us a game. Trusting Mark Melancon more than twice was also a big no no, and his overall management of the bullpen is awful. He has actually cost us a lot of games.
The Ownership; Larry Luchino and John Henry are both snakes and don't give a shit about Boston or the Red Sox. I honestly believe they are only in this for the money and if there were a more profitable opportunity they would jump at it in a second. They act like they care about this city so much.... they don't. What they did this offseason was downright embarrassing and pathetic. The way they didn't spend money, the way they handle themselves when people leave and just their overall demeanor is fucking lame. I loath them both.
