[Meh]

Granderson can't hit lefties.

[jacksonianmarch]

Nope, not at all. Girardi BETTER NOT think he can just throw Nova out there to "get a win" cause he might not get a win. We gotta go for this game. I think we have a decided advantage tomorrow and I'd like to think Girardi wants to win the series

Who is up for the sox in the bottom of the 5th? Cause you can't put Colon back out there. Ayla sucks and so does logan. Joba, Soriano and Mo is 7th, 8th and 9th too... K-Rob is the only one left.

[jacksonianmarch]

I dont mind Ayala. He's been in two games. In his first inning of work in both games, he's been perfect. It was his second inning vs Detroit that he got hit

If anything it should be Robertson in the fifth and Ayala in the sixth, so Robertson gets to face the bigger bats. But I wouldn't expect Ayala to get anyone out.

[jacksonianmarch]

I dont expect him to. But right now, I am certain Nova wont get through next inning unscathed

[yankees228]

Jeter fishing for walks.

[jacksonianmarch]

I'm fine with that. Jeter was way too aggressive last season, so I am okay with him being more patient this yr

Gotta be hacking at a 3-1 cookie. Because then, predictably, he gets a much tougher pitch on 3-2.

[Meh]

Nova will be back out there. No way Joe would pull him. AJ's pitching tomorrow too so who knows how long he'll last.

Isn't it CC tomorrow?

[yankees228]

I have little doubt though that Jacko will be right. Joe should have tried to navigate these last five innings with his big four.

[yankees228]

Gotta be Nova's last hitter.

[yankees228]

And there it is. Here's my problem with Joe. If he's willing to go to Robertson this early, why not just bring him in to start the inning? He's delusional if he thinks Nova is going to be able to work through the inning. For once, stop the trouble before it starts, instead of trying to stop it once it starts. Prevention instead of mitigation.

[Meh]

Oh yeah I forgot the roto was messed up. meh, K-Rob better be on today or else!

[yankees228]

FB inside please.

 

EDIT: So fortunate. There was little reason to believe Lowrie wasn't on the FB middle-away.

[yankees228]

I guess he didn't hurt his back Joe.

[Meh]

Nice to hear RON-IN-SON chants throughout Fenway!

[jacksonianmarch]

So, if Girardi's plan was to go to Robertson for any trouble, why wouldnt you just put him in to start the innings, since trouble seemed inevitable. Also, I saw Nova biting at his hand, I wonder if he has a blister

Yup, this.

[jacksonianmarch]

The good thing is, DRob got out of it. My hope is that Retardi is willing to allow DRob to start the sixth, then go to Joba-Sori-Mo for the win

[Meh]

My hope is K-Rob gets a scoreless inning here and then we score 24 runs in the top of the 7th and let Ayla come in and finish it out.

[jacksonianmarch]

Seems like every time we score "24" runs, we come out and score 1 the next game

[jacksonianmarch]

Atta baby DRob

I'll take the 24 runs and take my chances with tomorrow.

[yankees228]

Aceves has absolutely nothing.

[yankees228]

Joe Girardi sucks so much.

 

EDIT: So much.

[Meh]

Did joe buck just say ayla has a good arm?

[yankees228]

Luckily Ellsbury and Crawford suck right now.

[yankees228]

Probably won't amount to anything, but in his 113 innings, Carlos Silva was pretty good last year.
