  1. Amazing that this game is still 1-0.
  2. Somehow the Red Sox only have one run. Eventually the hitting with RISP is going to normalize.
  3. Jeter does nothing well.
  4. Probably talking about the long Tex foul, but it was so far foul that I would hardly call it lucky.
  5. And anyway, the pitch Youk put in play was a FB.
  6. No improvement in CC's off-speed stuff so far today.
  7. Again though, I do think your assessment of the starting rotation is reasonable. And I also think Buchholz will have a ERA around 4 this year.
  8. I agree, I did feel that at times leading up to the season people acted as if the Red Sox's starting rotation was a given, when in fact (as you pointed out) it's definitely up in the air. But everyone has question marks, and the Red Sox still have one of the best, if not the best, roster in the American League. You're never as bad as you look look when you're playing poorly, and you're never as good as you look when you're playing well. It's easily to focus on the flaws when things aren't going well, but it's just eight games and I think this will all be forgotten when the Sox inevitably turn it around.
  9. And few teams (or maybe no teams) as talented as the 2011 Red Sox have started 1-7, so there's no sample size to go on. EDIT: Beat me to it lol.
  10. Yeah, it's funny, because I like STL, but I'm rooting against them because Carpenter seems like a good target for the Yankees.
  11. Luck giveth (Pedroia's hit), and luck taketh away (Ortiz's DP).
  12. Or not, thanks to some good fortune.
  13. Ayala, in his second inning of work, going through the heart of the order ... ugh.
  14. Probably won't amount to anything, but in his 113 innings, Carlos Silva was pretty good last year.
  15. Luckily Ellsbury and Crawford suck right now.
  16. Yup, that's all reasonable.
  17. Joe Girardi sucks so much. EDIT: So much.
  18. Right with you there. I hate how big a part of the Knicks he is.
  19. I think your general point is a valid one ... people take the 'hating' part of sports way too far. I don't even dislike the Red Sox, I only root against them because it benefits the Yankees when they lose. But at the same time, in a highly emotional game thread, as Yankees' fans on a Red Sox's message board (a community created for you guys, not for us), I think we should refrain from waving the pom-poms in here.
