5/15: Sox @ Mariners; 10:10 PM

[Spudboy]

Ramirez or Bard? Hmmmm.

[Cocos Disciples]

Very near epic failure from Lester there.

[TheKilo]

Ramirez or Bard? Hmmmm.

 

Bard/Ramirez/Papelbon

[Cocos Disciples]

Fantastic. It was only a matter of time.

[redsoxrules]

thanks to lester's nice fielding is now 4-3 . f***

[Spudboy]

Oh f***.

[TheKilo]

Yay Jon

[Spudboy]

thanks to lester's nice fielding is now 4-3 . f***

 

Maybe he should have thrown to Peeedy at second. I'm not sure if that was the play. Francona should pull him now. That, I'm confided of.

[Cocos Disciples]

lol. f*** you Lester.

[TheKilo]

Yup, Verducci effect

[Spudboy]

What a pest Ichiro is.

[redsoxrules]

you've got to be s***ing me

 

TITO needs to go to our AWSOME bulpen more often

[TheKilo]

What took Tito so long? he should have been gone after the Guitierrez single

[Dojji]

We have to be near the bottom of the league in quality starts. Whenever we get one it's just barely.

[Spudboy]

So, Redsoxrules, glad you tuned in?

[Cocos Disciples]

Yup' date=' Verducci effect[/quote']

 

Basically. He's been awful.

[redsoxrules]

[Spudboy]

[TheKilo]

Dude, go away

[Spudboy]

Certainly not!

[Cocos Disciples]

Pedroia-Drew-Bay. Take it back.

[Jasonbay44]

What the f*** happened? Seriously I have to s*** and there down by 1, what the f*** lester.

[Spudboy]

I haven't stayed up this late to see a loss to a suck-ass team. I pay comcast to see the Sox WIN!

[Spudboy]

Pedroia-Drew-Bay. Take it back.

 

We have faith.

[Spudboy]

The real problem tonight is lack of Past Mojo. Sox must dig deep and over come.

[Spudboy]

Hang some cheese up in the zone White.

[TheKilo]

When can we play the Yankees again?

[ORS]

You guys really think Lester has been awful? He's striking out over 10 per 9. He's walking less than 3. The bloops and bleeders are effing killing him. In that past inning, there was one well hit ball, the HR, but he induced 4 weak contact balls in play that only resulted in 2 outs (yes, part of that was a poor fielding decision), before the Gutierez routine single. His line is good for a .500 BABIP, and on the season coming into the game he was at .393. He's likely now over .400. That's not going to last, unless it's some fault of advance scouting and they are just horribly positioned defensively.

 

Granted, he's giving up the long ball, but I can count more than a couple that were the result of the inning being extended by balls in play that had eyeballs.

 

I'm much more concerned about Beckett who doesn't seem to have an out pitch.

[TheKilo]

What's Lester's GB/FB ratio? Seems to me he's giving up more FB now
