Levine is a huge problem...especially with the inexperienced Hal at the top, and hot head Hank off to the side...

Management above the GM is a huge difference between the Sox and Yanks....Sox have a progressive thinking ownership group that works with their GM, not against him...

Agreed 100%...

After this yr I think Cashman is done. I will have mixed emotions about that because he's made some BRUTAL signings...but he's found some nice players and put emphasis on player development again which was huge.

I can understand people not liking it when Funtime posts about these things or the tone he takes.

Banning is a ridiculous move.

no way, he was banned....... that is total bullshit. he contributed so much to the board with banners and photoshops. such fuckin bullshit he was banned.

DBM going HAM indeed.

I also think Cashman building up our pen from within in 09 was a huge reason why we won a championship. Early on that yr our pen was a disastah.

I know he could be tough to take but I thought all the photoshops and other stuff earned him some leeway.

Wasn't always the case, though. Lucchino used to be the Red Sox's Levine, maybe not as bad.

True...so much fluctuation in the 'pen is the reason why you don't spend money on middle relievers...its Roster Management 101...Levine bypassed Cash on the Soriano signing...will ultimately be the final straw in Cashman leaving...

Kind of ironic that the banner at the top of my screen says "Funtime" and we're having this discussion.

You right. That's how all good teams do it.

Agree...Lucchino was always the "bad cop"...never liked him...but at least he was a baseball guy...not someone who came out of the Mayor's office, like Levine did...

Yup...Cash A. didn't want to lose the pick and B. knew it was insane to spend that much on a 8th inning guy...who's done nothing but suck and be a diva BTW.

I hope Cashman is gone too. I think he is really underrated especially by the s who call the FAN. He'll be tough to replace.

Anyone want to keep me company in Grand Central while I wait for my friend?
