5/10 vs. Jays

[example1]

3 wins in a row with an Example1 gamethread. Use whichever you want.

 

No lineup. No Katy Perry. Just win.

[Cocos Disciples]

Apparently people don't think the Sox won tonight. That's two other GTs besides this one.

 

But SCM, feel free to re-post those pictures...uh...please.

Jeez, after 6 years I guess I didnt understand the "gamethread" starter rules.

 

Took me a while to create that gamethread, I will not be uploading them again.

 

Sorry for stomping on your "streak" example. That was my first, and only attempt at a gamethread!!!

 

Go Sox, get back to .500.

[Cocos Disciples]

Drabek has been awful in his last 4 starts: 6.98 ERA, .917 OPS.

 

Lester is awesome.

 

Win.

It's all good. Just trying to keep the mojo going.

Don't be so sure, she might eventually make an appearance.

add my apologies example, i didn't know the protocol... and as long this team wins, i'll be glad to follow your posts.

 

But please... somebody wake up this offense and support our lefty who is 2.33/4-1/1.1

 

Lets get all the wins on this road-trip, starting tomorrow.

We haven't been there yet this season.

[yeszir]

Minimalist mojo!

[SoxFanForsyth]

Yeah I can't believe it's May 9th and we haven't touched .500 all season. Anyway, Lester going tonight. Couldn't ask for a better pitcher to get us over this hump. It's going to be very interesting to see, if we touch .500 today, if it gives us a psychological boost. Wouldn't surprise me if we got to .500 to start playing insane baseball.

 

The bad news? We have never seen Kyle Drabek. Hopefully we can overcome this "first time seeing a pitcher" curse.

0-0

 

That's a winning % of .000.

Actually it's undefined because you can't divide by 0.

<_ still not .500>

[Palodios]

example1 is 6-1 this season, and Lester is on the mound. I like that kind of mojo.

My first post was a joke. You got technical, so I got technical

[DirtDog]

Has this team scored double digit runs yet this year? I feel like this should have happened already.

They have not scored more than 9 runs this year. Maybe tonight we'll break that streak. The ball flies at Rogers.

[boston22407]

WIN!

Which IMO is pretty sad especially for a team this talented. This should change tonight. If it doesn't I'm going to go ahead and call this team allergic to a winning record. Hopefully Lester maintains that beast they call Bautista.

Well. It's official. No matter how bad Pedroia (.182) and Drew (.120) hit in May, and no matter how well Crawford (.361) hits in May, Crawford is always going to be the most overpaid 8 hole hitter in baseball. God Francona can be such a complete moron sometimes.

[boston22407]

Who is Play LF?lol

[redsoxrules]

You cant go around and shuffle the lineup every day ( or week) based on the players performance .

 

Drew and Pedey wont hit for that avg until the remainder of season nor will crawford hit 361 the remainder of the season

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Crawford.

I hope the baseball gods hear you loud and clear.

[boston22407]

Crawford.

 

reason why i asked is cause on the lineup posted two guys are listed as CF

I understand that. Francona said all year that their line up is best with Crawford in the top. He said earlier that Crawford will find his way to the top of the order "when it makes sense". So obviously, ultimately Francona wants Crawford in the top of the order ideally. So, what the hell has to happen for Crawford to hit in the top?

 

Plain and simple, Francona has double standards. If Drew was hitting .360 in the 8 slot, and Craw was hitting .120 in the 6 slot, or if Pedroia was hitting .360 in the 7th or 8th slot after struggling, and Crawford was hitting .135 in the 2 slot, you don't think Francona would make a move?? Especially when our offense has averaged 3.33 runs per game over the past 6 games?? And none of those games involved Felix, Haren, or Weaver.

 

I'm not implying that Francona should make a temporary move. He needs to make a permanent move. If he plans on putting Crawford in the top of the order, do it already.

[Adblue620]

I never understood why managers moved every single one of their hitters to the top of the lineup. When you are losing by one going into the ninth, the last thing I want to hear is the bottom of the lineup is due up. With Crawford batting in the 8 hole, there is hope!
