does Hanley get any kind of reaction in this series?

[Spudboy]

does Hanley get any kind of reaction in this series?

 

If you are referring to crowd reaction at Fenway, I believe he gets a cordial welcome and polite applause with each at bat. He's done nothing wrong that would justify treating him as if he were A-Roid or some other creep.

[Cocos Disciples]

Not a big response; I'm sure a lot of people won't even remember that he was with us (the watermeloners).

[Cocos Disciples]

Let's gooooooooooooooooooo.

[Lived2seeit]

ya i dont think Hanley gets too much of a reaction, most people wouldnt even know who he is in regards to the sox

[Youk Of The Nation]

Pasta mojo tonight. Elbows.

[schillingouttheks]

5. David Ortiz, DH

6. Mike Lowell, 3B

[Dipre]

80% chance of me GTing tonight.

 

Get excited.

[Cocos Disciples]

Switching things up in the lineup, as Ortiz gets hotter he moves up to 5th, Jacoby up to 7th. I think I'd rather have Ellsbury 9th.

[TheKilo]

That's a pretty awesome lineup, especially if Ortiz keeps hitting.

[Dipre]

Switching things up in the lineup' date=' as Ortiz gets hotter he moves up to 5th, Jacoby up to 7th. [b'] I think I'd rather have Ellsbury 9th.[/b]

 

It definitely makes sense.

 

If he gets on base in the 9-hole there's a pretty good chance a run's gonna score with D-Ped and Drew behind him.

I don't really follow the NL that closely. I recognize 2,3,4,5. Who are the rest of these guys?

 

Two of them will receive honorable mention, not induction, to the Talksox Hall of Name.

 

Congratulations Dan Uggla and Emilio Bonifacio.

[Youk Of The Nation]

I recognize all of them except Coughlin. Recent callup, I assume?

Especially with the R, L, R matchup

[ms_sox]

I'm ready to fry some fishies.

Like the line up. Let's rock.

[Cocos Disciples]

I recognize Coughlin, he was the guy who had the controversy with his first HR ball I think.

 

Anyway Spudboy, Coughlin is a pretty good prospect and a recent callup, Ross Gload is a meh 1B/COF journeyman, Uggla's a good, fairly young power-hitting 2B, Ross is a low-OBP, high-SLG hitter, Baker is a pretty solid hitting catcher, Bonifacio is fast but cannot hit.

 

Hope that helped a bit.

[Lived2seeit]

everyone's thoughts on Volstad for tonight? From what I've seen he has pretty good stuff. His numbers may not show it, but its there; especially his 12-6 curve, nasty

[Cocos Disciples]

He's only 22 and I think he has a great ceiling. His walks have gone down substantially from 2008, which is a plus, but on the contrary his HR rate skyrocketed which is odd because he's a sinkerballer. We'll see how he does tonight, but I think he has a bright future.

[Youk Of The Nation]

He also sounds like a Romulan.

[Cocos Disciples]

Baseball thought: What's up with Pedroia? He's been terrible in June, and he's seemingly lost all his power.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

hay fever

[Youk Of The Nation]

Good start.

[Cocos Disciples]

That did not look like a strike at all.

[Cocos Disciples]

Wake's going to dominate the kids tonight.

[Cocos Disciples]

Re: Hanley's reception, didn't seem to be anything positive or negative.

[Cocos Disciples]

Nice and easy 1-2-3.
