HELP WANTED: Third-base coach, Boston Red Sox. Apply now!

What's that, you say? The Red Sox already have a third-base coach? Really? That's like saying the head of FEMA can manage federal emergencies! Yes, that's right. We're jumping on the dump Dale Sveum bandwagon, because how many more times do we have to see baserunners sent home for easy plays at the plate before something gets done? I don't know Dale Sveum. I don't know his family. They might be good people. But that's no excuse for the bad calls he makes game-in, game-out. Something must be done, people. Just saying.
