9/7 @ San Diego, Price v. Cosart

[Bellhorn04]

Take a seat, Schimpf.

[TedWilliams101]

Tough out there for HanRam

[Station 13]

NESN is horrible these days to watch.

[Maxbialystock]

One could look back and maybe say the Moncada call-up was an essential factor in us winning the pennant- not for the reason we might have thought, but for the chance that perhaps his call-up was what lit the fire under Shaw's ass.

 

Keep it up Travis!!!!

 

See above. I said it before.

[SoxHop]

Gotta love the name Quackenbush....

[TylerD]

Price look's iffy tonight. Ughhh

 

His change up looks pretty though

[TylerD]

Lmao I think it's bad ass

[d-money]

Just 78 pitches. Should be able to go 7. I hope farrell doesn't make him throw 120 pitches. Idiot.

[d-money]

His change up looks pretty though

 

well he has gotten better. Getting padres to swing freely.

During the first ame of this series, I remarked that I thought Mookie need not one, but at least two, days off. Anyone else noticed the slower hands which makes for more pop-ups" He's popping up pitches he would have killed a week ago. At least he'll get one day to re=energize!

[bosoxmal]

They all are! Even Orsillo, in San Diego, is paired with a couple of dullards.

[d-money]

Would you bring price back for the 8th? 98 pitches. I would be tempted to leave it up to the pen.

[Jasonbay44]

Hanley!

[d-money]

I would bring the pen in now. 4 run lead.

[SoxHop]

hahahahah.... first pitch thrown in the majors is a HR......

I doubt we can afford to rest him in the upcoming series. Maybe tomorrow off will be all he needs.

[a700hitter]

Koji coming off the DL and going in in the 8th inning in a 4 run game. Announcers questioning the move.

[a700hitter]

2 batters 2 k's. So far so good.

[SoxHop]

No way. Koji is back.......... I hope he's good to go.....

[bosoxmal]

You're right. Shaw, Hanley and now Holt all seems to have benifited from a few days rest. Probably made worse by the timing of this road trip.

I hope the one day off plus the sight of the WALL will be all Mookie needs to put a stop to these stupid pop-ups!

[a700hitter]

What a ridiculous call on that foul ball. THe ball didn't come close to hitting the batter's foot.

[Jasonbay44]

What is Farrell bringing in Kimbrel here? Umm.. what

[SoxHop]

What is Farrell bringing in Kimbrel here? Umm.. what

 

This is strange. Maybe to get him some work? I really don't know.

[SoxHop]

His single neuron isn't firing tonight and he thinks we are only up 1 run......

 

HA...... beat you to it A700

[a700hitter]

HA...... beat you to it A700

LOL!! He does have to rest a neuron at times in NL parks.

 

We are in first place going into Toronto for the weekend!! Papi is rested. Farrell's 2 neurons are rested. I feel confident.

ahah..... I'm learning from you...

 

I feel totally neutral going 4 and 6 with this trip.

 

I'll take it though.

 

This next series it is on......... this is going to be some interesting baseball.....

[moonslav59]

Some good take-aways:

 

Uehara looked sharp. He could be a huge boost to the pen.

 

Shaw is determined not to lose his job.

 

HanRam continues to rake.

 

Papi got a very nice rest.

 

Our 2-6 hitters had just 3 hits, but we still scored 7 runs.

 

Pedey is solid.

 

Price is Price.

 

[SoxHop]

The rest of the seasons schedule is full on. There isn't any team you can take a rest with.

 

We are heading into a life and death playoff battle the rest of this month.

 

The big positive is our starting rotation is looking good..........

This!!! And it couldn't have happened at a better time. Price and Buch especially have looked good the last month. This next stretch till the playoffs will take some time off my life.
