BALTIMORE - Warm day here in Baltimore. The Sox and Orioles go at it this afternoon. Brad Mills will manage the Sox with Terry Francona away at his daughters high school graduation. Mills has now managed three games against Baltimore to Francona's two.

 

David Ortiz is out of the lineup with a right wrist strain. He had an ice pack on it in the Sox clubhouse moments ago. Mills said the Sox would put Ortiz through the usual treatments today and see how it responds. Sounds as if Ortiz will eventually get an MRI if the wrist responds to treatment even though X-rays were negative.

 

Jeff Bailey gets a start in left field. Mills was asked how Bailey's defense is and he said that Bailey had looked good at the corners at Pawtucket and have no reservations about putting the former catcher out there.

 

J.D. Drew was back in right, over his vertigo.

 

Mills said Jacoby Ellsbury pretty much has the green light, but is given the red light at times in certain situations. Ellsbury stole three bases Saturday night and has 26 for the season.

I see Drew has another injury to his vagina. Is that wrong. Will I be called out as a Nixon apologist? Do I need to recite reams of stats to defend my position that the man is an effete? Worthless and an enigma? Borderline major league player when we could have signed Catalanotto for hundreds of millions less. Just saying. Sticking w/ the conspiracy theory of Dice K.

 

f***ing idiot poster mojo!

[Cocos Disciples]

Lmao Kilo. I can't believe I missed that post in its original capacity.

[yeszir]

Guys guys guys. I'm calling it. Jacoby steals home.

[CrespoBlows]

Manny is going to hit 501 today.

[a700hitter]

Manny is going to hit 501 today.

He just missed in his first AB.

 

A double by Lowell to lead off the second inning.

[The Dustball]

Nice job by JD, he didn't try to do to much with that. 1-0.

[yeszir]

My extended family has taken over every single television in the house. I want to watch the game dammit.

Dude, you can't stand for that. Tell them that you need to watch the game as part of your job.

C'mon over to my place--I've got the game on the wide screen. :thumbsup:

[Jayhawk Bill]

2-1 Boston!

[a700hitter]

Pedroia is not fast, but he is a very smart base runner. Manny raked that ball.

[TheKilo]

Nice job by JD' date=' he didn't try to do to much with that. 1-0.[/quote']

 

Trot Nixon would have singled, Catalanotto would have homered.

 

Oh, and Manny can still hit a baseball.

[YAZMAN]

C'mon over to my place--I've got the game on the wide screen. :thumbsup:

 

I can't tell you how ridiculous it is to watch the game in NESN HD on my 42" plasma.

 

Unless you have a 50" or 60", that is, then you could tell me. My family room isn't big enough for those the way the couches are set up.

I only make like $3,000 a day off of Talksox. It's hardly a job.

 

C'mon over to my place--I've got the game on the wide screen. :thumbsup:

 

I've got a damn wide screen too but some great aunt is hogging the room. I think a lesser TV is about to clear up, I'll just head to that one.

[TheKilo]

Brian Burres is awful.

Time to get Aunt Bessie loaded, then. Go fix her a nice tall Scotch and Water, the set will be open in about 5 minutes.

[The Dustball]

Sweet. 4-1. Burres at 65 pitches.

[TheKilo]

God JD Drew f***ing sucks.

lol!!! :lol:

Good AB from Bailey.

[a700hitter]

Good AB from Bailey.

He had a good AB too. They have always known that he is a good hitter. There is a problem finding him a position in the majors.

[RedSoxRooter]

*trying not to read the posts because I tivo'd the game and am an hour behind....*

 

But I had a question about Homer Bailey. If he signed with the Sox as a minor league free agent, does he get a new fresh set of options?

[a700hitter]

I thought Pedroia got that one. Why would the OF play him so deep?

[redsoxrules]

MANNY!

[Jayhawk Bill]

501

Good call.
