April 10th vs. DET

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

that might be the worst call I've ever seen...almost perfectly down the center of the plate...no call

Notably, MLB.com Pitch F/X overrode the system and just placed the pitch arbitrarily where the umpire called it.

[soxfan17881]

You know... watching Wake pitch is never a comfortable experience. It's like watching some Rube Goldberg machine..you look at it and you think, "There's no way that should work!" But yet, somehow, it does.

[schillingouttheks]

OK.. I missed the run that Manny scored. The 3rd base coach was showing the stop sign, then Manny slides at home and (through the s***** replay going to comercial) it looked like there wasn't even a throw.

 

Why was he telling Manny to stop?

 

Becuase Maggs had the ball when Manny rounded third.

When the trio of JD Drew, Coco Crisp, and Sean Casey gives me more hope than Ortiz, Ramirez and Youk, this team has issues.

Corrected.

[TheKilo]

f*** the haters JD is gonna kick ass this year.

It feels like you and I are the only people who never took a shot at him last season...

[mAAAbs]

6-3

 

Nice.

[redsoxrules]

and me

[TheKilo]

Tigers know what's up. Make the suckbag beat you.

[schillingouttheks]

and me

 

lol, you too.

 

SEAN f***ING CASEY!

 

FINALLY we get some damn runs.

[schillingouttheks]

Tavarez is doing his best, well, Tavarez impression.

[Cocos Disciples]

Cmon now folks.

[schillingouttheks]

f***ing hell, Kruger. Go back to Elm St.

[schillingouttheks]

Now he's doing his best Gagne impression.

 

I don't feel very good right now with Sheffield at bat in this situation. Uggghhhh.

 

EDIT: Thank the f***ing Lord for...Lugo?

 

Sigh, I hate to have to use Papelbon after being up by so much. Oh well.

[soxfan17881]

EDIT: Thank the f***ing Lord for...Lugo?

 

Yeah! That freakin' throw he makes right on the money? He ought to jump in the air on "routine" plays. Maybe that would solve his throwing issues.

[soxfan17881]

Hello offense!

[Cocos Disciples]

Paps best not be back in.

[schillingouttheks]

Here's the offense...

 

Thank God.

 

And no, Remy, you don't bring Papelbon back in.

[soxfan17881]

Paps best not be back in.

 

Sounds like he'll be back. He hasn't pitched in a few days. They probably want to give him some throws, but I'd rather have him for tomorrow. Maybe top 9 will be short.

[Cocos Disciples]

Whats with the drums in the background?

 

EDIT: And NESN sucks. That ridiculous sound when a pitch is over a certain velocity and when someone scores...stupid.

Right after I read you post, Don and Jerry realized there was a sound for certain pitches! Hilarious!!!

[soxfan17881]

Good night, folks! See you tomorrow for the Yankers!

[Youk Of The Nation]

And the heroes of tonights game aaaare...

 

 

...Sean Casey, Kevin Cash, and Coco Crisp.

 

Wait...

 

...what?

[riverside sluggers]

Solid game by Casey

 

No surprise here, Bryan Corey has been DFA'd to make room for Timlin. The bullpen now looks like

 

Long innings- Julian Tavarez

 

Lefty specialist- Javier Lopez

 

Middle relief- David Aardsma

Mike Timlin

 

Set Up- Manny Delcarmen

Hideki Okajima

 

Closer- Jonathan Papelbon

Hey, I wear my love for JD drew on my sleeves, even through the bad times. Even through the .200-and-2-HR's-through-last-june times.

[Thumper]

You know, thinking back, all I can say now is I was wrong about my thoughts on J.D. Drew. Maybe he just needed to settle into Boston. He's really gotten a lot better, and I'd like to see him continue.

[ORS]

Interesting that there's no game thread yet, what with who they are playing and all.

[Cocos Disciples]

I'm letting whoever made this one make it.
