May 3rd vs. Seattle

[schillingouttheks]

Just when you thought the Matsuzaka hype would die down a bit...he gets to face Ichiro to start the game tonight, again. Let's see how he does this time out against the Mariners now that he's not going against that young stud King Felix Hernandez. And oh, Tito, please rest Jima tonight. He's pitched far too much. Horacio Ramirez has never faced the Red Sox...let's give him a rude awakening GO SOX!

I would assume Papelbon is available and Donnelly could be used in any situation Okajima would normally be used in

[ORS]

Stay angry.

Awesome mojo.

[jacksonianmarch]

Ramirez is a soft tossin lefty who the sox are unfamiliar with. Dice K pitched well against the M's last time around. I expect a low scoring affair.

Just some bonus mojo for today. Hilarious!

[jacksonianmarch]

wow, that kid is gonna have some serious problems. Wow.

[TheKilo]

The offense should just score like 15 runs so that Donelly, Paps, and Okajima get the day off.

PUNISHER MOJO

[Ray10]

All I have to say is DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE K. He pitches like he can and the sox win simple. GO SOX GO.

[MANNYHOF24]

I hope DiceK will locate the entire game and not have any mental lapses like in previous starts. If he keeps it together mentally he will be dominant. I predict Manny having 2 homers tonight and the sox will win 6-2. I am a little concerned with J.D., I hope he feels better soon and he hits like he did to start the season. People have said he is a streaky hitter and he has definitely shown that thus far.

 

Another point I have is that Francona better not burn Okajima out early in the season. He has pitched incredibly well so far, but Terry rolls him out there night after night. Let's hope others step up so the good guys can stay fresh.
