The Sox lineup is boner inducing 1-7, and Crisp has played real well lately.

It is very nice to see Youk back. Not sure about the boner though. When Drew comes back and gets in there, it'll be an awesome 1-8.

[MANNYHOF24]

Theoretical question, do Kotsay and Ellsbury split time 50-50 when Drew gets back?

[Cocos Disciples]

I can see some Kotsay-Ellsbury-Crisp platoon.

Rather ride on Coco while he is hot - if he cools down play Ellsbury more.

[das11209]

By the way - is Lugo coming back this season? Not that we need him or anything - but Tito might be tempted to play Lugo if he is available.

I don't think so; on 8/29 he was placed on the 60 day DL. And, with Lowell back, he wouldn't start anyways.

Lowrie has been slumping lately. Now with Lowell back, he'll get an occasional day off.

He's alreadly looking like he's pulling out of it with with the two straight games with 3 BB and a 2B. Lugo can sit and think about how awful at baseball he is. Maybe he and Cora can strike up a conversation on the subject.

game time

[Jasonbay44]

Nice first inning Wakefield.

[Jasonbay44]

Nice Lowrie, 1-0.

[Cocos Disciples]

Err, what the f*** Lowell?

[Jasonbay44]

At least Coco remains hot.

[Jasonbay44]

Wow a wild pitch and a passed ball for a run..

[German_Sox]

whats he gonna start f***ing around now with the walks?

[German_Sox]

good thats what you get for walking everyone send out farell to help this guy out before its a blow out

[TheKilo]

If Kevin Cash can't catch the knuckleball why the f*** is he on the team?

[German_Sox]

it would be 2-1 either way kilo it is what it is its crunch time so you know hes going to pull his s***

 

now farell comes to help this douche out should have let him walk some more

[TheKilo]

Yay Wakefield regression

[Jasonbay44]

Nice...

After injuring,Ortiz looks like in the mire of strike.How long he can come back as real big papi is a very important thing.
