Why Julio? Because This Is Boston!

After last night's loss in Detroit, the media was asking questions to Julio Lugo, the bum of a guy who calls himself a shortstop. They were asking specifically about what happened in the ninth inning when he lost the game for Boston. He answered and then it was followed up by a reporter who was trying to make a connection between last nights error and his three error game in Toronto last month. “I don’t care, but sometimes it would be nice to say something positive,” he said. “But all the time it’s negative things, you know? Sometimes, you know, people should say something that’s positive. But every time it’s something negative . . . bring it up, bring it up, bring it up. Why? Lugo needs to learn something, he's not in Tampa Bay anymore, around here people actually care about their team. Many fans have tried to stay positive about his sorry-assed playing since he joined the team. We were willing to take the shitty fielding because he was supposed to hit, well he hasn't done a damn thing since he came to Boston and there's no reason the media or fans should console his worthless ass with saying positive things.

Theo Continues Deals

Julio Lugo is in the house. The Boston Red Sox reached a preliminary agreement Tuesday with shortstop Julio Lugo that would pay him $36 million over the next four years. Details of the agreement were provided to The Associated Press by a person involved in the negotiations who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the deal was not final. Lugo must pass a physical before the agreement is completed.
