The Arod Curse! The Nomar removal! The Pedro Loss! & the Bay gain!
October 23, 2008

Do you remember the day Arod was almost a Red Sox? There were some who were quite upset that Boston did not spend those extra dollars to acquire him. How about when Pedro was let go, there was an outcry there as well. Then we had Nomar whom I was really sorry to see go and Johnny D who turned to the dark side. Yet after all those changes we still won a World Series, two of them without Nomar and Arod.

It goes to show you that Boston headquarters knows what they are doing, even if we do not agree with it fully at the time. Nomar has not been healthy since he left, neither has pedro and what has Arod done for the Yankees? What has Johnny D done for them as well?

If you were into mysticism you might come to the conclusion that wearing a Boston Red Sox jersey, seems to give our ballplayers an extra dose of talent. Jason Bay now has played a heck of a lot better now that he is with a winning team. Lowell became a super player once he was traded to Boston.

So let's make sure we give our full support to the next big trade because who knows, it  might lead to another World Series Championship. Might? Correction...WILL!

 

DRAFTAHOLIC!!!

There was also that Bronson Arroyo for Willy Mo too. My favorite was Shea Hillenbrand for BH Kim though. Call Theo the boy genius all ya want but what it all comes down to is whomever we've got on the roster getting it done on the field and ya never know how that's gonna work till it happens.

True there have been some stinkers but, for the most part we have been doing well.

As I remember, A-Fraud wasn't a matter of money. He was willing to cut his deal down to go to the Sox, deal was done, but MLB would not approve it. Glad they got that right!!

I know everyone will probably scream at my comments BUT... considering the trade for Arod was to involve trading Manny and Nomar, it would have been a good deal. At the time I didn't think so, but hind-site is 20/20. I think Arod would have been different if he had come to Boston. The fans would have apprecited him from the start, we would have a permanent, gold glove calibre Short Stop and an amazing bat! I still think we would have won the World Series in 2004 and 2007. I feel badly how ugly things got with Manny's departure. None of us knows what goes on behind closed doors, but watching Manny play for the Dodgers was an eye opener! Don't recall him around the bases around here with that kind of speed. When you are being paid that kind of money, and when you have a stadium of adoring fans, that should be incentive enough to play the game the way you are capable of playing.
