After escaping NY, let's hope for some good home cooking tonight at Fenway!

 

 

 

 

 

Hopefully we see a little more of this Jackson, then the one that has been dominating in Detroit this season,

Is Becket or Lester pitching? No? Ok, no feeling good about this one either.

[redsoxrules]

well the great news is we're back to fenway were they hit better

[jacksonianmarch]

Jackson, Porcello and Verlander in the same series is a tough task. And when only one of your top 2 is pitching (and not facing either of the 3 above), there is a darn good chance the sox split at best and lose 3/4 at worst. This happened last yr with us. Wang went down, then Joba went down and we had Moose, Pettitte, then a bunch of s***. You cannot win consistently that way

[BoSox21]

Porcello has fallen off in the last month and a half or so and we hit him pretty hard earlier in the year

[jacksonianmarch]

Porcello had a rough July. In 2 starts thus far in August, he has been really good.

[The_Destroyah]

I think that we can do this but of course there is a big difference in "can do it" and actually doing it...im just a little pessimistic right now concerning this team.

[suns]

[Death]

Don't understand, this is the best lineup the Sox can put out there offensively and defensively right now, what's to complain about?
