To your second point- I still have faith in Wakefield unlike some other fans on this board.

 

It's not even a matter of faith. Wake hasn't been doing anything differently from what he's been doing for his entire career. He's a streaky pitcher who's god awful when he's not on, and he can be flat out dominant when he is on. Why some people are jumping ship is absolutely beyond me and unwarranted.

Wakefield goes through these streaks EVERY SEASON. This is nothing new. He gets red hot' date=' then ice cold, the red hot... you catch the drift.[/quote']

 

put Wake's recent slide with facing another soft tossing lefty and tomorrow does not look very good.

[RedsoxFanInNYC]

Actually, yes it's Lugo and Coco's fault. With 2 outs, a sac fly or an RBI groundout DOESN'T WORK, LUGO. And a dinky pop up is even worse.

 

Coco and Lugo are the two worst hitters in our lineup. Care to refute that? Coco doesn't know how to work a count. Lugo can't get on base enough to be effective. He gets RBIs by recording outs. It's getting ridiculous. And yes, it IS their fault.

 

I understand that but basesloaded 1 out, Youklis up hes the guy that needed the fly ball. Noway am I knocking Youk just saying I don't expect much from those 2.

 

 

Got to give it to you Dice showed me guts tonight "applauds his effort"

Holy s***. I agree with you again :thumbsup:

[jacksonianmarch]

128 pitches is absurd.

You are unbelievable

[TedWilliams101]

Schil, we probably agree on most things, I just tend to get frustrated easily.

[RedsoxFanInNYC]

What ? lol

Don't even bring Youk's name into this. You look, RIGHT NOW, at what Youk has done this season vs. Lugo and Crisp. Get back to me. Sure, Youk didn't come through in a situation that we would have liked him to, but he can't do it all the time. What have Lugo and Crisp done?

Let me guess. The only thing you remember from his most recent outing against Texas is that he sucked and you completely disregard the fact that he pitched through the stomach flu. Right? Did he not show you guts then?

[MANNYHOF24]

128 pitches is absurd.

 

I really don't think so. I tend to think pitch count can be overated, especially with a guy like DiceK who probably averaged 120 PG last season.

I agree...again. But I get very frustrated easily as well.

[RedsoxFanInNYC]

Bullpen pitched 6 1/3 innings last night. Can't be burning those guys you should know better then anyone with Torre.

[schillingouttheks]

Lead runner on. PLEASE TIE THE GAME RIGHT HERE PAPI.

[jacksonianmarch]

he showed guts. They were all over the floor, in the toilet and in the wastebasket.

Dice was also pitching once a week over there.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Leadoff man on again. How about trying to bring him in?

[schillingouttheks]

Bullpen pitched 6 1/3 innings last night. Can't be burning those guys you should know better then anyone with Torre.

 

Daisuke pitched an 18 inning complete game in high school, then pitched out of the bullpen the next day. If his arm can take that in HIGH SCHOOL, I think his arm can handle 128 pitches tonight.

[MANNYHOF24]

What ? lol

 

I believe you called DiceK a waste at one point. That is what is laughable.

[VA Sox Fan]

Nice 7th by Dice-K.....

 

Dustin HBP. You're still due PAPI! GO BABY GO!!!!!!

your arm is much more flexible at 18 than it is at 26.

[MANNYHOF24]

What the f*** was Pedroia thinking?

 

Nevermind, self defense.

[Youk Of The Nation]

You have got to be f***ING KIDDING ME.

[TedWilliams101]

You can't blame this shutout on any one player. They just aren't having a good day. The whole lineup. You can't expect one player to come through every time. There needs to be a team effort. This team has been amazing so far in being able to play as a team and contribute as a team. Tonight is just a bad night, thats it. We aren't going to always produce, it just so happens everyone is off tonight, probably has to do with the extra inning game and morning flight. It's only one game...

[schillingouttheks]

What the f***. I've officially seen it all.

 

I can't stand this team right now. I just can't.

[VA Sox Fan]

Another DP......FUUUCCCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[a700hitter]

He's a spaz on the bases.

[MANNYHOF24]

He's a spaz on the bases.

 

Actually he was defending himself from a bat flying at his head.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Great, and Baltimore is winning. I get to wear the choke chain tonight.

[RedsoxFanInNYC]

When it rains it poors. Cant catch a fuking break here

[jacksonianmarch]

that was pretty funny. He fell down avoiding the bat, while not paying attention to the fact that it was hit directly to Chavez. if he freezes on that liner, like he should have, he's still on 1st.
