They better win this one.

[bsox0407]

We need to atleast split the series.

[yeszir]

Best thing they could do right now is dump 15 runs on the Rays.

[Lester82]

We must have Beltre "Pushing for a big deal after this year" and Ortiz "Rotting corpse" in the game, to drive runners in.

 

hells yeah. RBI MACHINES. Let's get 'em, boys!

[BigPapiEnFuego]

So when does this s*** fest start?

[TedWilliams101]

9:05. I'm ready for a nightmare of a game.

[bsox0407]

We need to get hits. Our Offense is not up to what we need. 7 of our 10 games we have had less then 10 hits.

[jacksonianmarch]

You know, the crazy way this season has started for Boston, watch them pull this one out. The young Buch against the seasoned ace of the Rays in Shields

[TheMino007]

Sox are gonna lose 10-3. Not gonna be pretty. Hope the reverse physiology works

[jacksonianmarch]

reverse psychology. Physiology is something different

Very True. Good news is the last couple of World Series Champs didn't start out with a blazing start either

 

'09 Yankees: 5-5

'08 Phillies: 4-6

'07 Red Sox: 6-4

'06 Cardinals: 5-5

In 10 games, the sox have scored:

 

9, 4, 1, 3, 8, 8, 2, 6, 0, 1 runs. Outside of playing KC, their runs/game = 3.28. That aint gettin it done

[jacksonianmarch]

Goodnight y'all. Long work day tomorrow

No s***, look at the part in bold. That's the most meaningful number there. Try as you might, and lord knows you're trying, you aren't pissing on my parade.

 

EDIT: Oh, and "outside of KC", is funny. Yeah, KC sucks, so they must have faced some s***** pitchers there and not the defending AL CY Young or anything. Oh, wait....

The picture of "Shields" lends new meaning to the term "Trap Game".

[riverside sluggers]

Next step for Ortiz is moving him down in the order

[transcam21]

DOINK!

[msubulldogs21]

lol

 

Wow

[Spudboy]

Ahahahahahahaha!

 

Cameron is a GG?

[TedWilliams101]

When it rains it pours, literally. I do think this defense will be good over the course of the season, but DAMN, they look bad right now.

[transcam21]

Is that the Benny Hill theme music I'm hearing

[Spudboy]

Where's Jose Tartabul?

 

If I was Farncona I'd go all Booby Knight on Cameron's ass.

[TheMino007]

I love run prevention

[jdlaughead]

What does Francona have against Bunting? Bunting un-nerves Pitchers, prevents Double plays, gets rallys going. Bases loaded nobody out, do a drag bunt, shake that pitcher up. This idea of swinging up at every ball, for the long ball, is stupid, swing level and flat to at least get on. Red Soxs, might beat Pittsburgh to the cellar this year. Francona better Wake-up!

[Spudboy]

You're doing it wrong.

 

It's Run Invention.

[TedWilliams101]

So far it's all backwards, we have great run prevention on our offense and are a great scoring defense. April fools is over guys, time to get it straightened out.

 

O/U on Burrell hitting a slam here?

[Spudboy]

Enjoy your brief stay.

[TheMino007]

well it is called April for a reason, except for Ortiz, he sucks no matter the time of the year

[TedWilliams101]

Thanks Cameron, 4-0 TB. As I thought, it's a nightmare right out of the gate.
