6/22 Braves @ Red Sox

[Station 13]

Let's keep it going.

[mvp 78]

Go Sox, Go!

[SemperFi Sox]

Let the kids play.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Gotta be patient at the plate tonight.

 

Jurrjens will walk the stadium if you let him (4.41 K/9, 5.51 BB/9 this year).

[Cocos Disciples]

Advantageous pitching matchup. But it's also not like Jurrjens doesn't have talent. Last year he had a 2.96 ERA in 23 starts. But the Sox are hot, and Jurrjens is not. Let's do it.

[Bellhorn04]

Jurrjens, Delgado and Minor are the 3 Atlanta pitchers we're scheduled to face. We must pillage, plunder and sweep.

Yup. Especially with Lester and Buchholz are 2 of our 3 starters. And Morales threw an absolute gem his last outing.

 

Get the sweep.

[SemperFi Sox]

6/22 vs. ATL: Nava LF, Pedroia 2B, Gonzalez 1B, Ortiz DH, Ross RF, Salty C, Middlebrooks 3B, Kalish CF, Aviles SS, Lester P.

Last nights was a terrific win and makes a run of six more very possible given the state of Braves and Jays starting pitching.

[redsoxbeatz]

It's not calling for a lot of rain though.

They should be able to play this game.

[lesterkett]

According to Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe, Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine informed Kevin Youkilis that he will be "sitting for a while" and Will Middlebrooks will be given the chance to play everyday.

Middlebrooks is on fire over the past couple of days, so the Red Sox can't afford to sit him right now. They also don't want to keep playing Adrian Gonzalez out of position in right field. It's fair to wonder whether we're entering the last days of Youkilis in a Red Sox uniform.

[lesterkett]

Daniel Bard said Friday that he's no longer a starting pitcher.

The writing was already on the wall, but Bard made it official Friday. In fact, he said he recently called Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington to say that he believes he belongs as a relief pitcher. The 26-year-old right-hander has been a little shaky during his time with Triple-A Pawtucket, posting a 7.36 ERA and 10/2 K/BB ratio over 7 1/3 innings, but he figures to rejoin the Red Sox bullpen during the second half.

little thunderstorm rolling through now, about 30 mins from fenway....already clearing up...should'nt be too bad

[jacksonianmarch]

I think I called for the sox to go 7-3 over their next 10 prior to the first Marlins series. That would mean a loss tonight would clinch that!

In preparation for the game and in the hope to maximize the chances of getting the game in tonite, the players have been asked to bring their bathing suits, swimfins, and snorkels to the park

We are coming for you Jacko...you and the Yankees. Soon we will catch up. Time for the Yankees to be looking over their shoulders.

[TutGadol]

Wasn't it 36 C yesterday in the north east? What is happening?

 

And another sweep is very plausible, or at least 2/3. The Sox have better pitching, offense and momentum throughout the series.

[yeszir]

Raining pretty hard in Boston right now. Lightning too.

[NC Sox Fan]

I'm watching NESN and they just said the games is delayed.

same cell that came through here...lasted 15 minutes, then some light rain still going on

[TutGadol]

Any word about starting time?

[NC Sox Fan]

Any word about starting time?

 

Jerry Remy just said something about 8:15. He also said the starters hadn't started warming up yet so that wont be a factor.

 

Sounds like they plan on playing the game tonight

[redsoxbeatz]

I live in SoCal now... I miss NE storms!!

 

Is it going to move on though? I didn't bring a bowl for the drive home was counting on listening to the game!!

[NativeBostonian]

If it is anything like it is here in Tampa, the rain will pass by. I am sure they are getting the same rain cloud as we just did.

[SemperFi Sox]

NHL draft for now then.

[NativeBostonian]

I just realized this one was in Boston.

[SoxFanForsyth]

8:20 start time.
