8/20 @ Toronto

Joe Carter agrees with you.

 

There are always exceptions.

[KPKahder]

It's ok.

 

Ask away, we'll share the info.

 

oh trust me, I'll ask....lol.. just be patient....lol.. btw, Dice K is pitching for the Sea Dogs in Manchester this weekend.. I tried to get tix for me and my daughter.. no such luck.. couldnt even get through.. line was "all circuits are busy"

I have been a sox fan a long time but like most women' date=' we watch the games because we love the game and the team. I've never been really focused on trades, farm teams, other teams players. Its why I joined this site. Ive been invited to join a fantasy league next season and I wanted to hear and read about what fans who ARE into the things I never paid attention to, talk about them... so I wouldnt be stupid during the draft next year[/quote']

 

That's cool. Sounds like a good plan.

[MANNYHOF24]

Jon Lester is a grade A badass.

[Dojji]

7 2/3 so far for Lester.

 

Wow.

[rhet]

This.

 

And RBI are still a useless stat no matter how you slice it.

 

Live and learn.

[Dojji]

Awesome. What an outing for Lester.

[CrespoBlows]

There are always exceptions.

 

Thanks for proving my point. Despite his low number of RBI's, JD Drew is still a good offensive player. Joe Carter got lucky because his teammates got on base for him, and he had the opportunity to drive in runs batting in the middle of that order.

[Dipre]

Lester is made of win and awesome.

[rhet]

And that's why you love loser players like David Eckstein.

 

I do?

[Dojji]

Lester's all growed up. I'd send him out there for the complete game.

[KPKahder]

anyone know what Lesters pitch count is ? Any chance Tito lets him pitch the 9th for a CG ?

[CrespoBlows]

Live and learn.

 

BTW, if you hate "Nancy" Drew so much, why do you have an avatar of Nomar?

[Dipre]

Live and learn.

 

I've lived, and the one thing i've learned during my stay on this, God's green earth, is that RBI's are a useless stat.

 

That is all.

[ms_sox]

Had a long physically tiring day, just turned the game on a bit ago. And hey, look at that, we're winning again. Me likey.

 

Lester looks like he's having a grand day, too. More awesome sauce for the vittles.

[Dojji]

He's at 105. Anything over 100 pitches usually means a guy is done, especially if he's through 7. But there's a chance we could see him if Tito decides to let him throw 120.

[CrespoBlows]

He's got 105. I think he's done.

Carter was a good player. Not as good as his RBIs made him seem, but still twice the ballplayer Drew is.

everytime you post I crack up. that avatar is totally awesome.. I might borrow it for fannation..are there copyright fees?

[ORS]

The only stat of any value pertaining to RBI is found here: Link. Seriously, 100 years ago they counted hits to ID good players, then some revolutionary guy said, "Well yeah, but how many chances did they get?", and batting average was born. This is no different.

Why not?

I thought Tito was a 120 kind of guy ? I heard that somewhere.. ?

[Dojji]

Nah I stole it. Borrow away.

[Dojji]

He might let Lester go 120, but there really isn't a need to do so and he might not decide to risk his #2 starter's arm on a meaningless ninth.

 

Is anyone warming?.

I totally missed 5 runs because of the Pats game.. Lester has been strong all nite.. I really want to see him pitch the 9th.. save the pen.. we'll need it tomorrow.. Penny is pitching

[BoSox21]

wow, Lester was really f***ing dominant after that shaky first. nice sweep

[KPKahder]

Nah I stole it. Borrow away.

 

excellent.. thanks.. I have one of a cat dressed ala Belichick with the hoodie and whistle.. its a hoot

[KPKahder]

yes, they had someone warming in the pen.. thank the gods, it wasnt DelCarmen..

[Dipre]

yes' date=' they had someone warming in the pen.. thank the gods, it wasnt DelCarmen..[/quote']

 

Lol why do you dislike DelCarmen so much?

 

He's a pretty good reliever.

[Dojji]

Delcarmen is one of our better relievers.
