[TheKilo]

Loretta starting to show some life.

[a700hitter]

If he starts hitting, watch out becuse the table will be set for the big guys.

[Jeff04]

no, tavarez is warming

[TheRivernator]

ortiz is having some offensive trouble these days....

Loretta starting to show some life.

He's 7 for his last 14, but he's been in the top 5 in LD% pretty much all year. He's really not hitting the ball that much differently, it's just finding a hole more now, which was bound to happen when you hit the ball like he has.

[a700hitter]

Manny 9 for 11 agains Benson after that hit. He owns him.

[TheRivernator]

where's my boy Seanez?

Oh yes, we are very worried about Ortiz' hitting. Hopefully, he'll break out of it against the Yankees.

[Jeff04]

Nixon with the key hit, 2 run double!!!

[TheKilo]

Attaboy, Trotsky.

[Jeff04]

Lowell is a freaking monster!!!

[ORS]

My name is Mike Lowell, and I approve of this double.

[TheRivernator]

11 homers sucks' date=' doesnt it[/quote']

 

Note the term these days. His average is now under .260. He's not hitting lately, doesnt mean it will continue. Just pointing it out...

[BoSox21]

way to make 'em pay, doubles

[Cocos Disciples]

ahh

[KeepTheFaith1229]

Lowell's a f***ing animal.

[CrespoBlows]

Why does NESN insist on playing these terrible songs?

[BoSox21]

man, if only we had a bat at shortstop

[redoctober]

17 Doubles on the season and it's only May. Way to make em pay Mr. Doubles.

oh boy here comes a "struggling Ortiz" thread.

 

Please he had his ups and downs in 2005 as well, but he did alright. IMO last April he just had a .250 avg. I dont see cause for concern as Riv is trying to pump into us. A-Rod is batting .260, but are you worrying?

This is par for the course for Ortiz. On the pre-game, they pointed out that in May in the last 2 years his average was about .250-.260, but his power production is up this year, so the league had better watch out.

[TheRivernator]

he is 13 for his last 66 or .196

if you look at his splits, he has mediocre aprils and great May's. Last May he hit .330...

[a700hitter]

Nice cushion for Tavarez.
