Loretta looked like he was walking.

Tito is SUCH a dumbass. He's throwing in the towel by putting Hinske in for WMP instead of Kapler. Unless WMP's hurt?

[a700hitter]

Crisp is so totally useless.

[schillingouttheks]

Annnd...Hinske K's.

So when is Gabbard starting, Beckett's next scheduled start?

[a700hitter]

This is an embarrasment.

[Cocos Disciples]

That sucked. I didn't watch the last 3 innings.

[schillingouttheks]

At least it was quick. Too bad it wasn't painless.

It was like a quick root canal.

I'm just curious. Schill needs one more K for #3,000. Beckett is to be pushed back for his next start. So if today is game 4 of a 9 game trip and Schilling is currently scheduled to pitch game 9 on normal rest, if Beckett is pushed back a day he'd get game 9. Which means Schilling will get #3,000 at Fenway?

Probably correct.

 

That's assuming that he strikes out a batter, though. That would be a nightmare.

From today's Globe:

 

Peña may have injured himself last night. Eric Hinske pinch hit for Peña in the eighth inning against lefthander Eric O'Flaherty. Peña was seen flexing his left arm and pointing to his wrist before heading to the clubhouse during Hinske's at-bat. Peña had surgery on his left wrist in early July.

The carnage continues. I guess we might see Welcome Back Kapler again tonight.

[schillingouttheks]

God helps us. The way this team is getting ripped apart both on the field and with injuries, I'm surprised that we haven't seen more players like Murphy coming up to get some ABs.

[schillingouttheks]

Manny will return to the lineup Saturday night...

I’m not sure about the status of Youk, but if he is expected to be out of the lineup for any length of time why not call up Carlos Pena and give him a shot?
