NEBRASKA

 

I am so confused.

[das11209]

Good thing the game is on ESPN tomorrow - if I have to listen to these Rays anouncers for another day - I will strangle myself.

[TheKilo]

Line drive outs everywhere, damn.

[The Dustball]

These balls aren't finding gaps because they know that the offense sucks.

[TheKilo]

I am so confused.

 

PUNTER

[das11209]

PUNTER

 

That did not help - care to explain?

[The Dustball]

The Rays let that ball through cause they know our offense sucks. They felt bad for us.

[CrespoBlows]

I was not a Drew hater' date=' either.[/quote']

Dude - don't screw up quality of your post because you hate me.

[The Dustball]

I don't hate you. Your opinion on the offense is just plain dumb though.

[TheKilo]

Alex Cora sucks.

You have an opinion about my opinion - I get it. Let's move on.

Thats too long back - help me out man - can you please post whatever dumb thing I said?

 

Edit - I see it - so what? Drew was aweful at that time - and everyone has reactionary post in the board. Like MASTERSON SUCKS from last night's thread.

[CrespoBlows]

You're opinion is that an offense that is second in the AL in RS, is a bad offense.

 

Sorry, but that's f***ing stupid.

[Cocos Disciples]

Alex Cora looks a bit overmatched against Garza....remember when our lineup was scarey 1-9....me neither

 

Remember when the batting champion was our #8 hitter?

 

After the Yankee series - we have a good shot to be the 3rd team in AL East.

 

No.

Sorry, but that's f***ing stupid.

 

A lineup with a healthy David Ortiz and normal Jason Varitek is second in the AL in RS....this is not that lineup and it's pretty bad. That being said they may snap out of it....too many players are currently in a slump and they will probably all come out at the same time.

No problem - I still think our offense is aweful. There are other bats in the league that are doing bad like the Tigers and the Yankees etc. Does not mean that we have to be bad also.

#1 in the AL in BA, OBP. #2 in SLG, R, H #3 in HR

You consistently fail at bringing the awesome.

Awwww, c'mon...

 

the only month both Tek and Papi were clicking was May. Boston scored 154 runs--certainly a very good total--but the team scored 136 runs in March/April and 138 runs in June, too.

 

This lineup isn't pretty bad, it's very good. Runs don't come every inning, and the Rays' best pitchers are facing us...patience.

Thanks for the support. I almost thought that same guys are logging in with the same id here. (Crespo, MannyHOF, Dustball etc.)

 

That was a joke - but it is surprising to me that long time Sox fans do not see the difference between this line-up and from last few years ( except 2006). And I do not think Tek will ever snapout of it.

Dude, didn't you admit that scoring was down throughout the ENTIRE AL?

 

Relative to this year, this is a very good lineup.

[TheKilo]

JD brings the awesome EVERY AB

The offensive teams from a few years ago were some of the best teams ever. You can't expect to match that every year. As shown by the facts this offense is performing well compared to the rest of the league.

Thank a red hot JD Drew for that....it would be nice to make a bet on whether it would hold up through the course of a season, but we can't....but to finish 2nd in the AL I believe would take a Big Papi

Still we are second in our league behind Tampa!!

Tampa. Is. A. Really. Good. Baseball. Team.

The pitching staffs of the Blue Jays, Rays, and Orioles couldn't compare to what they are now. When you play a majority of your games against crap pitching....you tend to score a lot of runs.
