The 2011 Red Sox are still in Meh Mode, Not Time to Panic yet

I'm still very Meh on this putrid Red Sox start. I realize 0-6 is just a horrible start to a season where they're picked to make the World Series by most experts. It actually can't get much worse, right? Not only are they winless, and not only have they been outscored 38-16 while being out homered 14-4, but the way they're losing some of these games is mind-boggling. I just witnessed them lose a 1-0 game because of a successful suicide squeeze by the Indians combined with a Red Sox player sliding past 2nd base for the final out of the game. And last night, by all accounts, they effectively lost the game because one of the fattest pitchers in baseball history (pictured above) came in the game for the 6th inning and promptly hit 2 batter & walked another without getting an out. "Beating themselves" doesn't even do this team justice.

However...it's 6 games into the season. If it's a fact that every baseball player slumps at some point in a very long season, then should we really be so upset that all the Red Sox players have decided to come out of the gate in epic slumps? Isn't that actually the best way for it to happen? Everyone slumps together, they get demolished in a bunch of games, and then for the next 5 months, they look like the best team in baseball.

That's how this is gonna play out. Otherwise I'm getting on the Orioles' bandwagon by Memorial Day.
