Pitching Matchup Preview

 

DET: Alfredo Simon (8-6, 4.63)

BOS: Steven Wright (3-3, 4.84)

 

It is time to start a winning streak. Give us something to cheer about with the added benefit putting pressure on the FO "Pukes" (see Spud) to make some moves and not give them the cop out excuse that this team is out of it and that they are going to take their time patiently planning for the future. I hope Naps gets scorching hot and we win out the next week so the overpaid suits with the pea-sized brains will be in a dilemma whether to buy or sell. They are bound to make the wrong decision considering their history. LOL!!

I just want to be able to hope that the Sox can win any game again.

We need Pedey to get back in the lineup and get back in the groove. I see that he has been DL'd again. I hope Napoli finds his second half magic and we don't trade him for a bag of balls. Today, we are throwing our knuckler but they are trotting a pig to the mound too. We can win this at Fenway.

First game at Fenway mojo!

Have fun!

 

Did your ticket also come with a brown paper bag? Take the tour before the game if you get the chance or batting practice.

No I got my own just in case.

[Spudboy]

f*** Cespedes.

 

Such is the knuckleball experience.

 

1-0 Tigers.

 

That was a nice grab by Aza.

[Station 13]

Wright looks like a guy that work at a sales garage.

[waltr]

Where we as fans are being duped is that this is not the super minor league system we are told it is. They traded away all but Barnes of those supposed power arms, have nothing in return and they have no Bryant or Sanos anywhere in the system. Nava and Breslow are taking up roster slots with no contributions, Ogando and Ross? Puleeze. And I have grown tired of the David Otiz pony show.

[waltr]

How do I post a picture in my profile?

[Spudboy]

There is the Cespedes that I love!

[a700hitter]

David Ortiz is one of the few reasons to watch this team game in and game out.

[Station 13]

The knuckler is making Swihart look hapless.

[waltr]

Waddle waddle waddle. Whatever in hell made him think he would score on that?

[Spudboy]

Nice call sending Ortiz.

[a700hitter]

So Butterball runs with Ortiz on the strongest OF arm on a ball to short LF in Fenway with no outs? f***ing idiot.

[NativeBostonian]

Why send him?

[waltr]

Cespedes has nine assists. Has Hanley caught that many fly balls?

[a700hitter]

We have lost way too many runners on the bases this season. Farrell's teams have a history of running into stupid outs. I am sick of it.

You are right about Ortiz being a reason to watch the team, then some stupid s*** happens and he gets thrown out at home and it goes to waste. Ugh, this team.

[a700hitter]

And I don't care how early Butterball get to the park at Spring training and how hard he works. He stinks as a third base coach.

[Station 13]

Yeah, this team is just flat out dumb. At least we haven't been force to watch Nava running the bases.

[Station 13]

Napoli is awful.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Napoli is awful.

 

Water is wet.

[a700hitter]

Was the coach even thinking about the fact that the strongest OF arm in baseball is playing LF for the other team or that he had a 40 year old big DH on second or that it is a very short throw from LF or that there were no outs? This should have all occurred to him before the ball was hit. He should have decided before the pitch to hold Ortiz at third unless Cespedes fell down and even then only if the ball went behind him. It was colossally stupid for a man who has spent his life in baseball to send Ortiz in that situation.

[Station 13]

Hanley wouldn't make those plays Cespedes just did.

[Spudboy]

Not only was it supremely stupid but Ortiz could have been hurt going into home.

 

Just crazy stupid and dangerous.

[Spudboy]

Hanley wouldn't make those plays Cespedes just did.

 

Tell us something we don't know!!!

[Station 13]

Damn,3 hard hit ball outs.

[Station 13]

Tell us something we don't know!!!

 

This team is full of predictable outcome. Sorry.
