  1. In other news, Sox have themselves another young hurler. This one a lefty in Craig Breslow. He's actually more tough on righties than he is on lefties Kudos for thowing inside until you hit Frank Thomas, backing up Big Papi
  2. dogs day of summer, pitiful to watch The Fenway faithful has only had defense plays to cheer about
  3. 23 innings the bullpen will have pitched in the last 3 games, and the lead over Yankees could be trimmed to 1 1/2 games
  4. EDIT that 7 runs to Beckett in 4.1 innings, welcome back 5+ ERA
  5. thats the game, thanks Beckett for 4.1 innings and 6 runs Ok can Curt save the bullpen tomorrow?
  6. 7 men LOB tonight, 22 in past 2 games, 37 in past 3 games
  7. I think ORS is looking at his season overall, not just tonight. Expectations were set high for this young hard thrower. They were expecting 11 wins by All-Star break. But his ERA is at 4.89, major league high 27 HRs allowed and has a very good chance of breaking the record of 50
  8. yay Beckett is approaching 75 pitches and the 4th inning isnt over yet. Sorry bullpen but get ready for at least another 4 innings. 2nd game of a 14 game stretch, great to hear for our bullpen
  9. good to see our pitching has helped one of the worst hitting teams get back into a grrove
  10. 5 men LOB in first 3 innings, 20 in the past 2 games, 35 in the past 3 games TYPO: oh yeah and Oakland pitchers have walked 14 Sox batters, not one of those walks has scored
  11. Youk steals Bradley, Coco does a deja vu catch to steal Ellis , Gabe does a running catch to snatch Perez's liner
  12. 2nd HR of Manny's thats been stolen Ive never liked Milton Radley
  13. What Rockies starting pitcher was it that was given such a ridiculous contract and ended up being cut from the team?
  14. Source? Where are you hearing that the Sox are deadset on him being the next 1st baseman? All I heard was that they were going to try him out there during his rehab, didnt go so well What I do know, is that Loretta currently holds the position as backup 1st baseman. So its not like they cant give Youkilis any days off
  15. He has been underperforming at 1st base in the Sox's eyes. Its not that he doesnt want to, he's just not giving management confidence that he'll even be average with the glove in that position
  16. Its been reported on NESN and weei that the Sox were met with Wily Mo Pena under-performing at 1st base. Terry Francona has now said we will see him platoon with Trot, and sometimes give days off for Coco, Manny and Ortiz
  17. 2nd straight loss, both extra innings. The bullpen has had to work 18.1 innings, thank god for the All-Star break in between. Jon Lester will get the Royals next but the A's with among the lowest avg/obp lineup got Lester to barely last 5 innings. The offense needs to step up with some timely hitting while stranding 30 men over their last 2 games. Sox should just cut Willie Harris right now. lead over Yankees is trimmed to 2 1/2 games. Beckett vs Zito tomorrow, need a strong outing from Josh & maybe I dont know some timely hitting before it has to get into a 3rd straight extra inning game
  18. As it turned out, its been 6 innings. So far the bullpen has worked 18.1 innings in their last 2 games Beckett tomorrow has to go a solid 7 or more innings
  19. Tavarez kept throwing in the same location because he kept getting calls in his favor, left a rising change up in same spot. Kielty was right on it
  20. Lack of clutch hitting, 14 men LOB + coupled with Lester's 5 inning outing results in more work on our bullpen. As we know the bullpen had 12.1 innings the day before the all-star break
  21. i wasnt giving him an excuse, just saying how I saw it. He's not one to follow the coach's signs all that well
  22. wow... he was just caught sleeping So Wily Mo back next week, Willie Harris sent packing
  23. 13 men LOB, 28 over the past 2 games. Cmon guys lets get a clutch walkoff win
  24. Huff in his 4th AB as an Astro in the 8th inning had belted a 3 run HR to seal the 5-1 win over Florida
