Hello People
When you lose to the Kansas City Royals who is like a 3rd of your payroll, your team has issues. Now lets be honest, I know it is early in the season but left field is a serious issues. Ellsbury is a center fielder and a great one at that. He simply does not have the arm for a corner outfielder position. This should have been obvious in spring training for a college team, why a major league franchise cannot figure this out escapes me.
The winning run by Kansas City should have been thrown out at home plate easily. I mean Manny would have thrown him out, remember folks Manny did throw people out at home plate, I know that fact does not sit well with the Red Sox Propaganda but it is the truth. You also know if Jason Bay was in that position he would have gunned that winning run out at home plate as well.
You have to play smart baseball and right now that is simply not happening and someone in the organization better wake up to that reality quickly or it is going to be a very very long season.
