  1. Well, like him or not, here's Shaughnessy's article on Manny. Seems he doesnt hate him anymore. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/reds...riendliest?pg=2
  2. Damn rain delay. Its not even thundering THAT hard. Theres like, no chance of anyone dying from lightning!
  3. This is true. We really can't see how Shoppach handles a pitching staff until he actually does so in the majors. As you said Bosoxguru, catching pedro is different than catching minor leaguers. But if a catcher shows prowess in the minors, knows what to call and really has hitters fooled a lot, then it will most likely carry over to the majors. Welcome to the site too. I read your blog and I like it. .
  4. :damon: :damon: to get it to show up. Due to the limitations of the program, it looks like crap, but oh well. So does Johnny!
  5. It's the first meeting against the much feared Devil Rays (I'm shaking in my boots) for the sox all season. It is also the start of a very short 3 game homestand (all against the Rays). Wakefield faces off against Abbott.
  6. Thats the main reason I was against the A-rod deal grassinzimsteeth. That'll get to be a mouthful eventually, but I love your name. And your avatar. Welcome to the site. Anyway, to see the Red Sox on almost the same plane as the yankees was upsetting to me, as it was to others.
  7. I think it does, check out his site. It has forums for all of those sports!
  8. Amazing outing by Johnson. Far from breaking any records, but amazing nonetheless. His line: R. Johnson (W, 2-2) 7.0 2 0 0 0 10 0 3.28
  9. I dont think it is, I think its Jeff Moorad. (no, i looked it up to tell you the truth, it is Jeff Moorad)
  10. Eh, its no great shakes. Just another baseball player's webite. A million bucks says he had no hand in its creation.
  11. Burks may have had his last at bat. He's old and was only filling in because of injuries. By the time he's back Trot and Nomar will be too, and he'll have no reason to play. I hope to see him one more time, but I doubt it.
  12. While it's a novel idea that the Orioles are challenging the sox for the division, I don't think it'll last. Look at us, we're getting so cocky!
  13. For some reason I never agree with power rankings. And these are a bit old, so I imagine the yankees have fallen even further while the sox have risen a bit.
  14. yea, his agent or someone close to him probably told him to open up to the fans or face the consequences. This year was also a first for me seeing him speak English. Way to go Manny! I like the new you!
  15. Bah, you guys know nothing!

    Boston

    I'm pretty sure our Boston was named after your Boston as the trend seems to be in the U.S. I like the Red Sox more than the Boston United though.
  17. I always type Red Sock, then delete it and type "Red Sox player". It is really annoying though. It doesn't work like it does with other teams.
  18. http://www.boston.com/dailynews/116/region...yer_dead:.shtml Sad story. My condolensces to all of the families involved.
  19. I'm usually a spectator, but this year I wasnt here to see it. I dont think there's any time limitations to run it. People finish in just over two hours and some people take the entire day. Its an accomplishment just getting through it.
  20. There's a point in time when this argument will cease to work. It seems to me (or rather, it is true) that yankee fans rely on past and future rather than present when making arguments.
  21. So I looked up Schilling's performances in his career when he is over 100 pithches. (I know this isnt related to today's game but, whatever) When he gets really up there (136+ pitches, which may sometimes be required in a CG), his ERA has ballooned up to 8. I'd like to think that when Francona left him in too long, the whole "grady re-visited" thing, he was trying to teach him a lesson about wanting to pitch so much. In any case, he'll think about it a lot more closely after he gave up the lead.
  22. Eh, it really isnt that big of a deal to me. Mueller (along with Manny) had played every single game of the season and he needed a rest. Bellhorn, although he can't hit for beans, gets on base a lot, so it wasnt like we were losing out on a lot. Plus he can hold his own with a glove. He'll be back, and we got the win. Thats what matters.
  23. Although I see what you are saying, Mussina is considered the Yankee's "ace" although he is certainly not pitching like it now. This start should certainly quiet the pedro critics, even if his next start is only so-so. No matter what he is throwing (NESN didnt have a gun, so you got some benefit from watching YES at least), he is still able to get the best hitters in the game out. While he is pitching a lot of innings right now, its because Tito wants to rest the bullpen. I think we may see him going 6 innings in the future as his arm gets progressively more tired and he becomes more of an injury risk. Then his K's might creep up over his IP #. Welcome to the site by the way Duffycliff!
  24. Paying 6 million for a AAA player is a bit crazy, even for Red Sox standards. But the way Bronson's playing Kim really doesnt need to be introduced into the starting rotation. Let him come back up to full strength, and then see if Bronson begins to struggle.
  25. Again, the sox had next to no offense and no RISP capitalization, but the yankees were even worse. And how about that bullpen. Man, am I ever happy. And we dont have to face the yankees again until june 29th I believe, so we have some time to extend our lead before beating them mercilessly again.
