I hope Cherington re-negotiates Lackey's contract before the end of the season. 500,000$ for next season is beyond ridiculous.

365 ft true distance, pathetic compared to his previous 411, 392 and 429. DFA the man

I feel no sympathy for Lackey, especially since he's the one who agreed to the deal because of his bum elbow. The only way they could 'make it up' to him, would be a contract extension past next year which probably wouldn't be worth it to the Red Sox.

It would be interesting to see if Lackey holds out.

I hope they rework it to pay him more and then he gets injured for 2 years again. Last year and this year is the only value they've gotten out of that contract, they owe him nothing.

The only time (other than massive rain delays) that I even considered leaving a baseball game early was when the Nats were getting blown out last year at home and my entire section was nothing but Braves fans doing that.

To quote myself from the GDT:

A reminder: Jean Machi came in today with a 1,100 ERA+ and Sergio Romo with a 73 ERA+.

E: Not that I expect Machi to be untouchable for the rest of the season and for Romo to continue to be super scary, but if Romo just can't get past hitters from both sides of the plate right now, they clearly have a guy who can.

He can't even hit against the Tigers lovely bullpen. Something is seriously wrong, he needs to go on the DL.
