That groundball was practically right at him. He didn't move or put down a glove.

 

I'm just listening on the radio at work, so I couldn't tell. They just said it bounced about 90 times and couldn't have been hit weaker. Sounds familiar.

This run support argument from the NESN guys pisses me off as well.

 

When you start the season as the team's 1 you are facing the opponent's 1. It takes some time to work that through and by rights if you have a legitimate 1 it may never work its way through during the course of the season cause your Manager may cycle you up against the opponent's 1 all season long.

 

You get less run support as the team's 1 because you are generally pitching against the other team's 1 as well. What a shock.....your run support suffers. I do think that in light of his performance, V has not been cycling Lester up to face the toughest starter the opponent has to offer. However he did face some pretty tough pitchers this season just because of how rotation works out when you are put in the position of the team 1.

 

The run support thing is nothing more than another facet of Lester simply not being as capable as a top of the rotation guy as the starters he is facing.

Boy they have been trying to pick at Ross outside at the bottom of the zone lately. Fortunately Romero can't through a strike yet

If I was a BJ fan I'd be fuming right now.

 

If you were a jays fan you'd be fine. They're above .500 thats like a world series in Canada.
