6/18 vs Rays Devil game 2

[Station 13]

Doubront try to lead the Sox for a DH sweep.

For some reason I thought the gamethread would continue. I have no idea why I thought that. Anyway glad to win one, but might as well go for the KO, especially after losing 3 of 4 to Baltimore, we can use every win we can get, especially within the division.

[Thunder]

When they finish game 2, I will be stunned that they got them both in.

I'll be asleep!

[rjortiz]

Not a lot of people at the game.

Rain messed up a lot of people's plans :dunno:

Looks like a slow gamethread too. I guess I should try to liven things up. Who wants to read fifty paragraphs about mid twenty-second century Andorian history?

If you're referring to the country Andorra, wouldn't it be Andorrian?

[Bellhorn04]

Surely we can score a bunch of runs off Jake Odorific.

[Thunder]

Why the hell is Nava playing first?

[Youk Of The Nation]

Some folk'll never wear that beard

but then again, some folk'll...

 

Seriously, sideburns to the corner of your mouth and a smooth chin? You look ridiculous you f***ing hick.

This is an Andorian.

Because Napoli played 1st in the 1st game. Need Nava's bat in the line up and he's done fine at 1st.

Tell me you were joking Ital???? Really?

[Youk Of The Nation]

Also, if I were referring to the country Andorra, it would be Andorran, without the 'i'.

[Thunder]

Well, I can't argue with that logic.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Tell me you were joking Ital???? Really?

 

To be fair, I am impressed he knew what Andorra was. I can't expect everyone to have an encyclopedic memory for Star Trek's races. It would certainly be nice to be able to converse about it outside of the Trek boards, but I don't expect it.

[Palodios]

Unproven rookie with a good arm that hasn't figured out the majors yet... 7 shutout innings probably

[Thunder]

Give that man a spot in the ASG!

Nava makes it 1-0

[VA Sox Fan]

Finally I guess.....

The Red Sox placed pitcher Clay Buchholz on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to June 9, the team announced.

 

Buchholz has not pitched since he left a start on June 8 with neck stiffness.

 

The Red Sox need a starter for Saturday’s game. Earlier Tuesday, manager John Farrell said the team narrowed in on two candidates as potential fill-ins: Rubby De La Rosa and Allen Webster.

 

Buchholz needed to throw a successful bullpen session on Tuesday if he was going to start on Saturday. Farrell said the team would monitor his throws to determine his availability.

 

“For [buchholz] to be able to make that start, he would need to bullpen today, Thursday, and then start Saturday,” Farrell said earlier. “If the bullpen can not be executed today, then we will make a move.”

 

Buchholz appeared to throw some pitches in the bullpen before Tuesday night's game. The announcement was made in the bottom of the first inning.

 

In other roster moves, backup catcher David Ross was placed on the seven day disabled list because of concussion symptoms.

 

Catcher Ryan Lavarnaway and right handed pitcher Alex Wilson were called up and are available to play in Tuesday night's game, the team announced.

Daniel Nava is quite good at hitting a baseball with a baseball bat.

[a700hitter]

Why the hell is Nava playing first?

Nava is the better hitter.

[italstallianion]

Tell me you were joking Ital???? Really?

 

 

Let's just say I know more about the country Andorra than I do about Star Trek.

 

Heck, I had to Wikipedia "Andorian" to even know that YOTN was referring to something from Star Trek, although since it's YOTN one could have guessed.

[VA Sox Fan]

Too bad Nava should be working at BK haha

 

GOOD JOB DANIEL!!!!

[Bellhorn04]

Daniel Nava is a bad man.

Based on what how our bullpen is being used we might need them to piggyback one another.
