Yes! An old thread started by ME with 268 replies! I rule planets! I think Beckett's mechanic's are off. He gets the curve over and he figures it out. I'm not worried. I still would take what we gave up for what we took on in this trade.

Sweet. I was wrong.

Cora's good on D. Just not as good as Gonzo. Not a big difference if your talking about mildly difficult plays. No Jeter. Foulke's got a bad back - which, if you are going to go on the DL, is not the worst thing. Plus I guess he could use a blow if he's on a record innings pace. Who will they bring up? EEI mentioned earlier that they would probably bring someone up to backup Pauley as early as tonight, so I expect something crappy.

I'll be pulling for ol' DLowe though Pedro will probably win. I'm cool with that too! I hope they both pitch great. I love games like this.

I just made a bet with myself: If Schill starts tonight and they move up the rotation - something I'm loving the idea of right now, then I will take tomorrow off from work. If they don't I'll just go in late.

I'm putting my unbeated game thread record (3-0) behind David Pauley for this one. I fully expect him to go 4 or 5, possibly even six batters tonight.

Pauley will take the mound in the second of four games against the New York Yankees, who turned what was supposed to be a duel between Josh Beckett and Mike Mussina into a 13-5 rout in Monday's series opener. Andy Phillips and Jason Giambi each hit a three-run homer off Beckett during a seven-run second inning for the Yankees, who accounted for all their scoring in the first three innings to extend their winning streak against the Red Sox to three games. The teams have split the first eight games of the season series. With the victory, New York overtook Boston by one-half game atop the AL East. The Yankees and Red Sox have finished 1-2 in the division each of the last three seasons. New to a rivalry over a century old is Pauley (0-0, 12.46 ERA), who allowed six runs and 11 hits in 4 1/3 innings of his major league debut Wednesday at Toronto. Pauley, who will turn 23 on June 17, was not involved in the decision - an eventual 8-6 triumph. The Yankees will counter with Chien-Ming Wang (5-2, 4.82), who was credited with his first career save Saturday - two days after allowing five runs and eight hits in four frames at Detroit. In his most recent start against Boston on May 22, Wang surrendered seven runs and nine hits in six innings of a 9-5 loss at Fenway Park. In four lifetime appearances - three starts - against the Red Sox, the 26-year-old Wang is 0-2 with a 6.04 ERA. He has gone 2-6 in his career against teams within the division but 10-0 vs. the rest of the AL. Yankees rookie Melky Cabrera hit a two-run double to highlight a five-run third inning for the Yankees on Monday, extending his hitting streak to eight games. He has batted .318 (7-for-22) with seven RBI in his first seven games against the Red Sox.

If it's not too late, I updated my 6/5 line. 6/05......................1.......+.............3.........+...............7..................11 (I thought it would be Clement going but it's Beckett tonight.)

it's ovah. On to NY.

Why the hell is Clement back out there? This is a Terry thing. He better know what he's doing.

I pray to Allah. ALALALALALALALALALALALAL! JIHAD!

Clement gets a quality start. The only way he comes back for the 7th is if the Sox score 5.

You suck. I can't even put you on my ignore list because you disabled that option.

I lost a LOT of respect for Clement during "the rain game" at Fenway a few Fridays ago. He was terrible and tried to fake a lame injury so the game would be called early. I'll give him credit when credit is due and I'll stand by Sox players, but it frankly was embarrassing to watch as a fan of the organization. Wake wouldn't have done that. But I still hope Clement can help the team any time he starts.

The Detroit broadcast (which I have to watch) just said the Sox lead the Majors in road Hrs with 46. Is this true???? I would have never guessed. :dunno:

Yeah, but Youk's just keeping Papi from playing first. Almost back to back to back right there.

youuuuuuuuuuuuk! (hears echos)

Damn. I thought today was Beckett.... Anyway, here's how I view ol' Matty boy. Think of him as a hard throwing Tim Wakefield. Seriously. When it's working for strikes, he's great. When it's not, he's in trouble - just like Wake. It comes and goes, even from inning to inning. And the catcher has no idea where it will wind up. The only differnece is that Clement is a pussy and Wake's not.

Sox Fan on Cape - just for being here.

That was a great game.

I seriously thought Zuma would be out there for the 9th. I'm shocked, SHOCKED!!!!
