Go Yanks!

Sox win -score 16 runs! Celtics win, Bruins win. I'll sleep good tonight

VTDragon · 05-07-2010, 09:32 AM

We get swept by the Orioles and then turn around and we sweep the Angels. Who can figure?

Hope we can keep up the good play against the Yankees this weekend. Should be an interesting series.

Looks like the BoSox were just what Tex needed to come out of his slump

hey hey hey... where's the faith... remember the angels last year? started at 16-16 and went on to win 90+ games!

our pitching is starting to settle in... same will happen with our hitting...

keep in mind guys... we've been playing horrible and still above .500 (granted its by 1 game)... that's with early injuries... beckett and lester not showing up yet... dice-k getting better...

Lester has shown up, and with a vengeance. He's been almost untouchable his last three starts. Beckett is completely off the rails though, really gotta wonder what is going with him. Matsuzaka had a good start on Tuesday, and even Wake was good yesterday, just didn't get any run support. Lackey has also been good. Where we are lacking is in the hitting department. We need Ellsbury back, and if they are serious about a playoff run this fall, they will need to sit Ortiz for Lowell, and either hope Cameron starts hitting well or trade for a bat in the outfield.

Theo's run prevention is a bunch of crap.
Cameron just plain Suxs, the Brewers let him go, and Beltre for the best third baseman in baseball has a boat load of errors and would have at least a dozen more if not for hometown score keepers?
I think Tampa and the Yanks are just to strong in the AL East?

Bruins Fan · 05-27-2010, 03:48 AM

What a turn around, playing like crap for a month, to the hottest team in baseball.
The pitching has finely kicked in, they got to keep it up and beat up on the bad teams on this home stand.

Yeah, hell of a road trip. Hopefully KC won't be too much trouble.

Still down on Beltre? He had a pretty good game last night

The Poet · 06-15-2010, 02:28 PM

Sorry, Gary, but I have to disagree with your disagreement. Firstly, I granted your point about him handling himself well, and meant in good part by that the way he has handled his reduced role by not b!tching and becoming a distraction. If I did not spell that out, I apologize, to him and you, but I did imply it. As for the rest, his range has become slightly better than a statue, and his speed is glacial, and you might argue that in tone but not in kind. And his hitting? As of today, he has 12 RBI, 11 BB, 10K, and is batting .215. One can forgive the RBIs, etc., as a factor of his limited appearances, but if he was hitting better than 2 bucks he might get more action.

Hey, I like the guy. But he's toast. Eat the contract, and let some kids earn a slot.

VTDragon · 06-16-2010, 10:33 AM

No real disagreement on Lowell's diminishing skills...I just will be sorry to see a good guy move on... even though it is clearly time for him to do so. Hey, I hated to see Trot Nixon move on too, but that didn't mean it did not have to happen.

One game out of first! GO SOX

One game out is better than we have been, but still not making the playoffs. Gotta beat them Ray and Yankees, damnit!

Oh ye of little faith. It's not even the All Star game yet. They can both be beat.
Go Sox!

Oh well, ya can't be perfect every outing. He's still awesome and I'll take him on my team (the Astros) anytime.
