RANTING and RAVING
• Matrix and Matrix Reload were awesome. The movies blew my mind. After them, I need to watch something boring before heading off to bed to bring me down. They were so intense. Matrix Revolution was awful - gigantic disappointment like B-Kim.
• B-Kim needs to make a decision soon. Either Kim is going to play for the Sox and rehab with the club or he is going to play in Korea. A decision has to be made for the Sox to go forward. Here is hoping that he goes the way of Sasaki and the Sox have an additional $2.5 million to spend this season and $6 million next.
• I am adding a tip jar on my desk to offset all of the freaking tipping that society feels is appropriate. I thought only wait staff and bartenders pay included tips.
• I thought Lowe would struggle but not to this degree. Pedro has never experienced this level of gopheritis. We should not forget that Arroyo was slated for long relief and was a waiver pickup – temper expectations.
• No talking on public transit in the morning. It is an unwritten rule that has not been communicated well go figure.
• No one should question Nomar’s desire. Mark Prior with a similar injury is making his return basically at the same point in the season. RSN should be questioning Kim and Mendonza’s desire.
• Brad Thomas is rehabbing for Pawtucket too and will get a look at some point this season.
• Over the weekend, I plan on finishing my assessment of the Sox first third of the season.
