Nice, how much it run you?
A pair of seats were $200 and 1x1 ft piece of turf was $20. We ended up with 2 pairs of seats, 10 1x1 ft pieces of turf, and a larger piece of turf (don't remember the price). It was close to $700 with tax.
 
The only reason I say Spring is because I bought a case of Winter Lager and White Christmas from my guy today and asked him when they usually stop getting shipments...he says they usually stop around January 15th and start getting the first batch of Spring on the 16th :x

October and Spring are the only two I really cannot drink :lol: so I'll stock up on this and wait for the Summer.

I could see them doing that. Amaro absolutely refuses to see that they need a full blown rebuild.

Curious to see where Konerko ends up.

My favorite is cherry wheat Samuel Adams...

Dan Uggla being shopped around I hope someone takes him we definitely need to pay a large chunk of the remaining salary.

What an awful contract we gave him :smh:

Its going to be hard to shop him
 
he's an ex-catcher, too. not that it's a huge deal...but catchers tend to have a great understanding of the game. at least the better ones :lol:

Mike Matheny. Although we learned he's overly loyal to his starters. His refusal to utilize Shelby was a minor difference in the series.

Tavares, Wong to go with Wacha, Shelby. Sucio.

Miller wasn't the same pitcher he was over the first half. Don't remember the specific numbers, but his K rate was down drastically. There's a reason he wasn't used.
 
You honestly believe Shelby couldn't give a strong inning or two out of the pen? Even he was confused with his role and lack of use by Matheny.

Shelby was a relative unknown to Boston's lineup. Worth a try. Could have confused, dazzled.
 
Nobody is arguing with me about Matheny being overly loyal to starters though. He did it repeatedly. With Waino, Kelly, Lynn. Never learned his lesson despite a super strong pen. Yes, I'm mad.

I'm not gonna question a manager like that. If Matheny thought Miller could help, he would have used him.
