I really liked that guy. He was a fantastic fielder, and he wasnt nearly as inept at the plate as everyone made him out to be.

You don't have to convince me.

Does 4/5 have to give Stanton one of the years post name change?

This is probably the player I was most surprised still hadn't been taken.

Do Red Sox fans really hate him that much?

Wow. I had no idea.
As an outsider, all I'll say is that his 2003 postseason performances are some of the best I've seen.

And he could have won the Cy Young in 07. But 2011 is too much to forget.

Beckett's behavior and play in 2011 was so disgusting that it basically cancels out any good he did in a Sox uniform.

I know 2011 was a disaster for the team, but I don't know a lot of the details beyond that.

One example of Beckett in 2011. He missed a start because of a bad back, and then went golfing either the day before or the day after I dont remember exactly. When questioned about it, he chided the media for questioning what he does on his days off, proclaiming that he only gets 15 days off or so a year.

Playing in Boston has to be a cunt of a time. Who doesn't like chicken and beer?

Wow. Yeah, that would piss me off if someone on the White Sox did that. That's fucked up.
