6/17 @ Chicago Cubs

[NativeBostonian]

Wasn't his choice.

 

He should realize he is a joke and kill himself.

[NativeBostonian]

Ryan Sweeney got put on the DL.

[mvp 78]

Sorry Tito, Bard isn't their best pitcher.

[mvp 78]

He didn't have a chance at that one. Quit using him as a scape goat' date=' It's boring.[/quote']

 

Ouch.

[jung]

Wow, they couldn't start this game at a different time so that the players would not have to deal with the sun cutting between the upper and lower decks like that?

[mvp 78]

It's an ESPN game at a stadium made for day games. No chance they'd move the game later.

 

This is every night game here.

[SCM33]

I am smiling watching Morales pitch right now.....I am pumped about his performance thus far.

 

Velocity is going up, throwing strikes and it appears he has a pretty good change up.

 

Looks like he belongs out there.

To be fair, McDonald took a horrible line on that Castro triple.

[mvp 78]

Morales pitching well. Not sure how far he'll get in the game though.

[redsoxbeatz]

Lester' date=' Gonzo, Ellsbury, CC and Pedroia will decide this season.[/quote']

 

I agree, though I would add Beckett, Buchholz, and Doubront oh and the whole pen. Hmm... Sounds like the team will actually decide the season, haha, who woulda' thunk?

 

Why sit Salty? Geeze.

New #5?

[SoxFanForsyth]

It's not even close to being over. 10 games out can be made up on 5 games' date=' there are almost 100 games remaining.[/quote']

 

I agree that it's not close to being over.

 

Not sure how 10 games can be made up on 5 games though.

[FredLynn]

Even the triple Castro hit was on a pitch outside the strike zone. So far so good for Morales.

We should be able to score lots of runs off Maholm

[SCM33]

New #5?

 

Little early for that.

 

They keep talking about the logjam in the bullpen and where Bard will pitch when he returns.....

 

If Morales earns himself another start and he pitches well, that could open up a spot for Bard.

[FredLynn]

I agree that it's not close to being over.

Time will tell. If we never get close by the end of the year then we can look back and see that it was indeed over on Father's Day. If we make a run, then it was never over.

[mvp 78]

Pedey is back?

 

Please oh please...

[jung]

Pedey may be on his way back. That looks like his swing again.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Uh oh.

 

Don't let Pedroia get hot.

[VA Sox Fan]

Like anyone gives a s***...I'm gonna announce that I am ALREADY done with this GT.......

 

Have fun all!!!!! We're up 2-1. Sleep well all. Go Red Sox!!

[mvp 78]

In that case you could say it was over after game 1.

[SoxFanForsyth]

What's wrong VA??

[SCM33]

Youkilis sucks so much........

 

why is the better player sitting on the bench?

[Palodios]

Pedroia looked like he hobbled to second there.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Damn Youkilis.

[FredLynn]

Yousiless keeps showcasing his talent. What is he now? 0 for 20. Time to release him if we can't get anything for him.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Pedroia looked like he hobbled to second there.

 

I think he was just out by so much because he got such a bad jump, because he was making sure Maholm went home right than going on 1st movement.

[mvp 78]

What's wrong VA??

 

:dunno:

 

Too bad. It's fun when she's around. Helps balance this place out a bit.

[Brennan]

Pedey is hot again?

 

Oh yeah, that was a scorching single. PO's here we come!

 

 

Nice try Youk!

[jacksonianmarch]

I wonder how long they let Morales go. My guess is he goes no more than 4, but probably goes 3

[FredLynn]

In that case you could say it was over after game 1.

 

Did anyone think the season was over after game 1? The difference is that now many intelligent fans think that its very close. We will only be able to tell retrospectively who was right.
