Wait, is that a yankee fan calling us fairweather? Have you ever looked at the stands at yankee stadium in the 8-9th inning of a game the yanks are losing? Strangely empty...

Anyway, the crowd at Fenway will cheer him, especially if he shows up with a beard

Have you ever counted the number of posts on this thread in recent months, despite the fact that, as Yogi wisely said, it ain't over 'til it's over?

Oh, and by the way, Damon has announced he has declined the Red Sox offer to return. Been there, done that, and don't want no more of it. In case you missed it, last week when at Yankee Stadium, he was asked which he preferred . . . being a Boston or New York player. He replied that everything . . . the fans, the organization, the treatment of players, the environment and facilities . . . all was better by far with the Yankees.

Sox did not want him back, it was just a blocking move.

Having Damon again would have been fun... but what's past is past, time to move on... besides I think our young guys are doing pretty well.

Maybe so. And maybe this is revisionist history . . . again.

Yes, those who are managing to stay healthy are doing pretty well. Unfortunately, "pretty well" may not be good enough in the AL East.

Lost a couple of close ones in St Pete...the playoff picture is not looking any brighter today.. had hoped to win at least 2 of 3 from the Rays.. but instead we lost 2 of 3. Maybe we can feast on some Bluejay.
