i would like to know what will be the money line for this game considering Lackey will pitch.

Big Papi and A-GOD just announced the spanish site version of the Red Sox.

 

There are a lot of RS fans in Latin America. Great latin players have played in Boston; actually, i was wondering a couple of years ago, why The Red Sox was one of the few teams that didn't have a spanish version... well now we have, yeah!

 

Estan buenos los videos promocionales de Adrian y David., veanlos!.

Damn. Thinking about last night's game, that was just absolutely gift wrapped.

 

1. 5 consecutive 2 out walks by Aceves.

2. 13 hits, 5 BB, and only 4 runs. That should never happen.

3. Three separate times, a strike 3 was missed by the Hundley, and our hitters failed to see it and go to first, and all 3 times they had ample time to advance.

4. A rare bobble by Gonzalez would have gunned down the runner at home.

5. Gonzo had multiple RBI opportunities and could only dribble 1 through the infield.

6. Ellsbury thrown out trying to steal 2nd with 1 out, runners on the corners, and Pedroia up. Pedey walks and Gonzo gets a hit - Ells would have scored.

 

Just a really, really weird game last night. Frustrating to watch them shoot themselves in the foot over and over. Oh well - those games happen. Time to right the ship.

 

WIN!!!

All of which with their ace on the mound, and our ace on the toilet with intestinal issues. I find it hard to believe the Padres have any chance whatsoever tonight.

Seriously, what does Reddick have to do to get some playing time? Tito's obsesssion with veterans is infuriating. Mcdonald has 4 hits ALL SEASON.

There is absolutely no reason to play McDonald, Cam, or Drew over Reddick, I don't care if there's a RHP or LHP on the mound.

 

Vs. LHP -

McDonald is hitting .130 with a .461 OPS vs LHP. He's had 3 hits in 23 AB.

Cameron is hitting .145 with a .553 OPS vs LHP

 

Reddick has had 2 hits in 4 AB vs LHP. And Tito is sitting here trying to tell me that McDonald and Cameron give us a better chance to win than Reddick does?!?

 

Give me a break. That's a freaking joke.

I just don't see the logic of putting a .114 hitter in the #6 spot of strongest lineup in the majors. This is spitting in the face of Scutaro and Varitek who hit just fine.

PADRES (31-44)

Venable RF

Bartlett SS

Headley 3B

Ludwick LF

Guzman DH

Hudson 2B

Rizzo 1B

Maybin CF

Hundley C

 

Pitching: LHP Clayton Richard (2-9, 4.35)

Clayton Richard is garbage. We have to beat this guy blowout or not just make it happen. I hope we don't do what we did yesterday which was get a lot of hits then not come through with RISP. I think we were 3-13 yesterday with RISP that's ugly fix it.

I can sort of excuse this lineup since it's against the Padres, but it still pisses me off. If this crap happens against important teams I will lose it.

 

Please win tonight. I will miss the game cause I'll be in New York City.

Alright' date=' have fun. Take a dump in Yankee Stadium while you're there.[/quote']

 

Don't put any ideas in my head ;) At the very least if I pass by there I will spit on it.

 

 

And I am thinking this game might be in for a delay, it's been raining all day here so I assume it is in Boston too.

WHY THE f*** ISN'T REDDICK IN THERE! Tito you f***ING idiot. 3 guys to choose from: 1 belongs in a retirement home, 1 is an old(ish) career minor leaguer who's been awful this year, the other is a 26yo prospect the team is high on and has been playing well in the majors this year.... so he picks the old f*** and s***** minor leaguer. WHat the f*** is wrong with you, Tito?

 

If we lose, the loss is on Tito. There's no excuse for this. An organization that loves developing prospects is just letting one rot on the bench. I don't get it. If I didn't live so far away I'd go kidnap McDonald and force the decision.

 

Update: Now there's a rain delay, earliest start time 2:05. I'm REALLY getting sick of all these rain delays. Perhaps a retractable roof isn't such a bad idea...

UGH! Talk about a double downer!! :thumbdown

Reddick is the new Lowrie right now. Scutaro couldn't hit traffic and Lowrie was hitting everything that was being thrown within 6 inches of the plate.

 

It's the exact same situation. But Francona is too much of a "loyalist" (aka vagina) to make a move. Listen, if Drew is hitting .230 through 15 games, fine, don't make a move. But we're freaking 73 games deep right now. He's had a chance to turn it around. Now go with the hot hitter.
