Last night's game against the Blue Jays made something abundantly clear. The Red Sox are just about as good as the Blue Jays right now. It was an even match all around. And you know what? That's kind of scary because the Blue Jays don't beat the Devil Rays never mind the Yankees. My opinion is that there is just too much bad blood in the clubhouse these days. Theo Epstein likes to tell us that clubhouse chemistry doesn't matter as much as talent and I can agree that that is the case when a team is so talented that they are winning regularly, but when they aren't they need a lot of good will amongst themselves to get through the hard times. It's time the Red Sox hired one of those team building consultants to work with them. They need to work together to build rafts to and get across the Charles and come up with creative ways to get all of them up onto the Green Monster from the field. Things like that. Any other ideas for team building exercises that would help the Sox?
