A Year to Rememer, A Season to Forget

I decided to take stats and facts of this 2012 Red Sox year and give a big picture of just how bad this really was, how far from grace this franchise is from their 2004/2007 championships years, and how the future looks now that the Sox off-loaded a bunch of player, staff, and payroll, including
Bobby V's firing earlier today... Pink Hat Nation... Even you can understand this...

• 793 - Fenway Park's Current Sell Out Streak dating back to May 15th 2003

• 315 - The team's on base percentage (ranked 22nd in mlb) and the lowest it has been in 11yrs
• 275 - $275 Million dollars in contracts were dealt away when Boston sent Beckett, Gonzales, and Crawford in a blockbuster payroll-offloading deal to the Dodgers

• 3 - The number of solid free agents/signings they will need to make this off-season to compete
• 2 - The number of games I went to this year (in April/May) and refused to support them after
• 1 - 1 Player is left from the 2004 team... The idiots... When this team was fun... (Ortiz)
