Chris Tillman (1-1, 0.84 ERA)

 

We have a win streak going! Doesn't matter how ugly they are, it still counts. Lets keep the streak going tonight! GO SOX.

 

Also when I searched for Lackey this video came up

What the f***? lol

[mvp 78]

Hope Lackey dominates and crushes a case of Bud Light tonight!

[Thunder]

Win this one for Joe f***!

[Spudboy]

I hope our Horseface dominates tonight!!!!

 

Everyone should watch that video. It was pretty funny.

 

GO SOX!

One down. Nava next please.

[Spudboy]

Also, I'm a little pissed because I fear that I won't be able to watch the Sox game.

 

Da Brunes are playing at 6:00 and I suspect NESN will broadcast that game and probably air the Sox game on NESN Plus which I don't get on my cable.

 

Balls!

 

If anyone has a link to a clean, reliable site where I can watch the Sox game I'll put you on my Christmas list if you direct me to it! A few days ago someone posted on a game thread a link to a site. Unfortunately, I could not really see because the site said I needed to download some video player. I did not do this because I was afraid of downloading a virus or some other malware crap.

 

Help please?

Cool!

 

Why get rid of Nava?

[Elktonnick]

No surprise about Roberts DFA. The only surprise is that there was no one in the organization that they could have brought up in his place. Nava hit over 300 last year and has proven versitility. Unlike Roberts, Nava has value on the open market if nothing else. He plays a respectable outfield and is a switch hitter. Once Victorino comes back I suspect they'll option Bradley before dumping Nava

[Youk Of The Nation]

Cool!

 

Why get rid of Nava?

 

Because he has underperformed for the first two and a half weeks of the season, and since he has never done anything else ever, we can safely assume he will continue to underperform until the heat death of the universe.

No, because he has to have a .900 OPS to just be a below average regular. He's one of the worst defensive OF's in baseball history. Great analysis though.

It's on MLB Network depending on where you live.

[Beaneater]

Posting-from-West-Africa mojo goes for the trifecta!

[Thunder]

Holt starting at 3B, Roberts DFA

Never done anything else ever????? Are you s***ing me Youk? In a mostly platoon situation last season he hit 303, slugged 12 homers and drove in 66 runs with an OBA of, what, about .385? Sorry but that dog won't hunt.

[seabeachfred]

Holt starting at 3B, Roberts DFA

 

Now instead of sending him down to Pawtucket when no one else claims him and be faced with the possibility of seeing this turd again, this time they need to release a guy they DFA. Like Roberts and his 105 average.

 

As for tonight, Lackey needs to keep the ball in the park and continue his success against the Orioles by pitching a solid game while the bats have to wake up.

[rjortiz]

Sarcasm.

Your sarcasm detector isn't working.

This is dumb.

[rjortiz]

This is dumb.

 

Agreed. Roberts is what he is. AAA depth. Fred will be calling for the release of Holt and Herrera in a couple of weeks, and then Heiker Meneses, Justin Henry, and Mike McCoy after each of them fail to hit .300 with 20 bombs. Cecchini might get mixed in, and Fred will ponder if he, like Bogaerts, is a choker when he isn't producing like Wade Boggs immediately.

[NativeBostonian]

Gong to be watching my B's tonight. Hopefully both the Red Sox and Bruins win tonight.

[rjortiz]

That looks foul.

[Station 13]

Markakus (whatever you spell it) should never be pitch away. f***ing ******* always hits it the other way.

[NativeBostonian]

Foul ball

[NativeBostonian]

that's bull s***

[Station 13]

That's f***ing foul

[rjortiz]

What is the point of the replay system if the umps don't reverse the call?

[NativeBostonian]

That's what happens when you have people in New York looking at a call. The Red Sox instantly get f***ed over.

[Bellhorn04]

What is the point of the replay system if the umps don't reverse the call?

 

It's almost like they're trying to sabotage the thing.

[Station 13]

That already match our 1st inning run all season. f*** me.

[BornToRun]

This replay system is f***ing broken. That's like the 10th time this year that I've watched a challenge of a clearly blown call only for them to look at it for 5 minutes and keep it anyway.

 

f*** umpires so much.
