Middlebrooks is a scratch.

 

Herrera is playing 3rd in his place.

No surprise with the shot he took off his finger last night. Might be headed for the DL.

[Station 13]

Herrera is terrible. What happen to Holt?

[Spudboy]

Holding Middlebrooks out is just precautionary at this point. The Sox have Monday off and expect WMB to start again Tuesday. That is why Holt remains in lovely Pawtucket. No need to put WMB on the DL at this time.

 

This is another example of why it would be beneficial to have Drew around.

[jacksonianmarch]

You guys should s*** down this pitcher's throat. He sucks.

[NativeBostonian]

I'm ready for some baseball!

[Station 13]

f*** that bunt. Shane was heating up.

[NativeBostonian]

Good start of the game!

[a700hitter]

Jacko, you are a good sport!

[NativeBostonian]

Napoli just as big of a threat to take the ball out of the yard as Ortiz.

[a700hitter]

Naps needs to make pitchers pay so that they stop walking Ortiz.

[jacksonianmarch]

Jacko, you are a good sport!

 

It ends today my friend. I am not really around through Wednesday

[Station 13]

Did the Rangers had Cliff Lee at one point or is it my imagination?

I am looking at the bright side and am hoping that the additional exposure by this shitbag Willie Harris clone will hasten his departure from the team.

If we win today, you can start the new game thread before you sign off today.

I thought you had to start it the day of the game?

[a700hitter]

Did the Rangers had Cliff Lee at one point or is it my imagination?

Yes, he pitched for them one of the years that they went to the World Series.

They did. They got him from Seattle by trading Justin Smoak

We'll make an exception for you, cockmongering Yankees fan. You are now our lucky amulet.

[a700hitter]

No, that is not a rule.

I thought so. Lee switches a bunch of teams in the span of 2 year.

[NativeBostonian]

We should have Yankee fans start game threads all the time.

[a700hitter]

AJ with 2 RBI. Others may have a different opinion, but I do like hitters that make a lot of contact. I went to a Yankee Sox game where Salty k'd his first 4 times up before making contact in his first AB. In is last 2 ABs he was swinging early in the count desperately trying not to continue k'ng. It was very frustrating to watch especially with runners on 3rd and less than 2 outs.

[Station 13]

Slider got Xander again. Hopefully he can attack early to avoid that pitch.

Xander and JBJ are going to need more time to adjust to MLB-level breaking stuff. Gotta live through them growing pains.

They both could have used more time in AAA, though. In a perfect world, you'd have two stop gaps who could be surpassed once both got hot.

[Station 13]

Bogaerts was hitting the ball hard the first month. Pitchers stop throwing him hit me pitches and he sees a lot of breaking ball lately. now he has to change his approach to counter it.
