5/24 @ Tribe

[iortiz]

Ellsbury CF

Lowrie SS

Gonzalez 1B

Youkilis 3B

Ortiz DH

Drew RF

Varitek C

Crawford LF

Sutton 2B

 

Tek is hitting higher than CC. :dunno:

 

Still Scutaro on DL?, This Sutton has no defense at all.

 

CC is .273 last 7 games and .286 in May

Tek is .333 last 7 games and .300 in May lol...

[WhiskeyBreath]

Francona isn't going to move Crawford up there for just one game. If the reports are correct, Pedroia will be back Wednesday.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

Crawford sucks. Lowrie sucks. Drew is God.

 

[iortiz]

Crawford sucks. Lowrie sucks. Drew is God.

 

Sarcastic, right?

 

JD Drew is .200 last seven games and .204 in May

 

In the other hand,

 

Jed is .300 last seven games and .270 in May

 

above CC's numbers.

[a700hitter]

Hey. All Craw did last night was hit a single and a bomb, score 2 runs, and hit the ball hard in his 2 AB's that resulted in outs.

 

No need to move him to the 2 hole instead of Lowrie. That'd be dumb.

..and sandwiching him between Varitek and Sutton makes no sense at all. He's not the most patient hitter to begin with. What kind of pitches do you think he will see with those two hitting around him?

[CX360]

Are you sure you're a cleveland fan?

 

If you was a cleveland fan you would come into every game thinking we will beat them.

 

Are you sure you are? I dread facing Beckett every year since the 2007 ALCS where he singlehandedly beat the s*** out of us with one arm behind his back.

He's 4 years older now and the tribe has a good young lineup.

[Brown28]

From what I've read, this was a scheduled day off for Pedroia anyway. It's not really a big deal, sure sutton is gonna go 0 for 4 but Carmona has been strugguling so A-Gon, Youk, Ells, Papi and even CC have a good shot at having big nights offensivly. Defensivly, Sutton is obviously no Pedroia but as long as he makes the plays he should make (no errors) we'll be fine. 5-2 Red Sox.

4 years old... to 31. The prime of any player's career. It's not like He was 33 at the time of the ALCS. And the tribe has a lineup that's been performing beyond what they should be.

Fausto has given up 18 runs vs. the black sox. (2 games)

Vs. everyone else he has given up 16 runs. (8 games)

 

Take it as you want. :dunno:

Right, because looking at a player's stats against Kansas, Seattle, Minnesota, Oakland and Baltimore are a better way of determining how he'll do against the Red Sox.:harhar:

[suns]

Oakland, Baltimore, Kansas city, and minnesota are some pretty good hitting teams.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

He probably doesn't know Beckett is hot this year. He'll find out tonight..wait never mind he still has no sense.

[Dipre]

Oakland' date=' Baltimore, Kansas city, and minnesota are some pretty good hitting teams.[/quote']

 

They are four of the worst hitting teams not in the AL......but in the Majors. Don't make s*** up.

[suns]

Found this on something boston blog site:

 

Beckett has a lifetime record of 3-5 against the Guardians with a 5.55 ERA

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

And then you say you're not a homer LOL. KC? Oh yeah the Twins are on FIRE without Joe Mauer...visit us in reality anytime.

suns stop !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

He doesn't have to it's self explanatory. Just need to have some sense something you lack. Honestly, I think you play dumb on purpose can you put away the act please?

[suns]

Minny as a team (pitchers and batters) is batting .233.

 

KC is batting .259.

 

 

Athletics are batting .236.

 

Baltimore is batting .250

 

Then I went on to do some further research and I saw that KC is 8th in batting stats.

[Dipre]

Show me where you got that from.

 

I'll give you KC, who's eighth in runs scored, but Minessota, Baltimore and Oakland are 30th, 26th and 22nd in the Majors respectively.

 

In other words, a so-so team, and three bags of suck. Please.

Okay no way in hell we can have him during todays game. His post make my head hurt.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god what the f*** am I reading here

[Dipre]

oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god what the f*** am I reading here

 

You were just educated bro.

 

I also had no idea that Minnesota (30th in MLB in runs scored) Oakland (26th) and Baltimore (22nd) were a trio of really damn good offensive teams.

 

I was humbled by how little i know about baseball as well.

The cleveland Guardians lineup with Fausto Carmona pitching!

[boston22407]

Okay no way in hell we can have him during todays game. His post make my head hurt.

 

agree ,i cant stand stupid people

[SoxFanForsyth]

my head just exploded.

 

Fausto Carmona has thrown well against KC, MIN, BAL, and SEA, so he's a good pitcher.

 

Josh Beckett has thrown 14 IP, 0 ER against the Yankees, and he's old.

 

[suns]

I just learned Drew Sutton played for the tribe last year!

[iortiz]

just arrived, and still fighting with Suns?, let's focus in the game guys, it is just worthless.

 

Lest's go Red Sox!!!
