6/14 @ Baltimore

[Thunder]

LHP Eduardo Rodgriguez (6-4, 5.00) vs RHP Luis Ortiz (0-0, --)

 

I made a joke earlier about sweeping the Norfolk Tides, and this Ortiz character was just called up from Norfolk. Can't spell Orioles without an L. Win. Dance. Repeat. x3

[TylerD]

This team won't ever lose again.

Should be a productive weekend . The Orioles are the worst team in MLB , and getting worse every day . Sox should sweep and pad their stats while doing it .

As bad as the O's are, in their very recent 3 game series with Houston and Texas they were not swept.

Were those the games Means pitched? He at least gives them a chance on those days.

Looking at the pitching rotation they should sweep this series. Don’t know who will pitch sunday but we have rodriguez and sale in the first two games.

If the Red Sox are playing a ballgame today then they might as well win it. Just sayin'.

I agree about Means but he did not factor in either of the wins. They lost to Texas 2-1 in the game he started.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It appears that tonight is day of rest for Betts. MC Hammer is leading off and Nunez is DHing.

They better win this. It would be all for nothing beating Texas twice and then lose to Baltimore.

[illinoisredsox]

Brian Johnson up (may start Sunday); Travis optioned back to Pawtucket.

I'm not asking for much here. Just a 10th World Series. No more... no less... I'm not asking for two in one year. Not like I am overreaching here.

Sam Travis, the quintessential AAAA'er, who has not shown enough to eventually crack the Red Sox lineup or bench for a season. May or may not be of interest to any other team. Sam may have to make a career decision in a year or two. Won't be the first nor last to almost get there, not unlike a Swihart or Brentz.

Listening to the Oriole broadcast.. Gary Thorne rules.

[vegasbob]

Is Heath Hembree's 10 day IL for right forearm strain/right elbow the warning sign for UCL problems??

[d-money]

Well hope they can figure out this rookie before they play 5 innings.

Maybe if it was hockey

[TylerD]

Seriously? Ugh.

[YastrzemskI]

At least it was a solo jack.

[vegasbob]

I don't think Erod could have centered that slop up any better if he had a laser survey instrument and an adjustable tee stand

[d-money]

This f***ing guy man.

[d-money]

This guy’s such a f***ing headcase.

[d-money]

Need to bring the lumber tonight .

[TylerD]

HOLT!!! tie game baby.

[Station 13]

This guy’s such a f***ing headcase.

 

Spineless. 5 years of absolutely maddening results.

[TylerD]

Need to bring the lumber tonight .

 

We may win 2-1.

[vegasbob]

Even when Cora plays Holt, nice HR BTW, he still DH's Nunez

[Station 13]

Nunez. trash player.

 

Get rid of that s*** already.

[illinoisredsox]

HOLT!!! tie game baby.

 

It was a 2 run jack. Of course, we’ve seen so few non-solo homers this year the confusion is quite understandable.
