  1. Big wiggle there. Time for the bats to do some work.
  2. Now he's got the velocity, but he's hanging the breaking stuff. Talk to him Tek.
  3. It didn't look to me like he was all the way warmed up, or maybe he's gassed throwing out of the 'pen. His velocity was way down. He hit 94 like once. He usually lives between 93-96. EDIT: Although I am watching mlb.tv, and they are showing the Detroit broadcast. Sometimes they pad the home numbers and knock down the opponents on the gun.
  4. That splitter to Polanco wasn't just nasty, it was FILTHY.
  5. Damon throws weaker than my sister, and she's 10. Bright side? Paps can shut this inning down, get the lead, and get his first win.
  6. Arroyo's suckitude continues.
  7. Death valley is the only thing that makes the Stadium neutral, and that is a marginal classification. Right field at Fenway, off the line, is one of the deepest in MLB. Many of the dimensions between the Stadium and Fenway are negligible when you take in all other variables. Yes, Fenway is a hitter's park, but the Red Sox hit for comparable average between their road and home splits, and actually hit more homeruns on the road. They do score fewer runs on the road, but their road run production is still good enough to be 3rd in the AL and 4th in MLB compared to other teams total (road and home) production. Sadly, I feel this is a waste of my time because I think you have no f***ing clue what you are talking about, and you just reiterate all the same generalizations that you hear elsewhere. Hit-and-run starting s*** is pretty immature, but from you user name, I shouldn't expect any less.
  8. They need to get rid of Arroyo in the offseason. He's too inconsistant, and when he's bad, he's real bad.
  9. Young Slam......Arroyo doesn't pitch well with a big lead.
  10. Arroyo, we don't need it to be interesting. A laugher would be nice for once.
  11. I can see Sox fans being a little tight, but I seriously doubt it will affect the team's play.
  12. During the 9th? He's their closer, yeah I know it's not a SVO if he goes in to begin the inning, but in the past 4 days he had thrown 23 pitches in 2 innings on 2 separate days (none yesterday). No, I don't really believe it was a conspiracy. That being said, I think Yankee fans ought to appreciate the fact that Buddy Bell didn't really go after this one.
  13. I thought you were referring to the 13 runs TB gave up to the Yankees in the 8th to lose a game 20-11. I didn't realize there were 2 13-run innings in MLB this year.
  14. ARod walkoff single.......5 runs in the bottom of the 9th to win. No McDougal.....I smell a rat.
  15. That was the Devil Rays. I'm still wondering where McDougal, their closer, is. He didn't pitch last night.
  16. Double, 7-7, 2nd and 3rd for Rodriguez.
  17. Buddy Bell must have a grudge against the Sox. 7-3 into the bottom of the 9th. Burgos pitched a perfect 8th, but he brings Affeldt in. Affeldt lets the bases load with 1-out, then he brings in Shawn Camp (7.34 ERA, 0 SVO). Where's McDougal? Anyway, 7-6, runners on the corners, 2-out for Sheff.
  18. Thanks, and thank you Cape. Talksox will be well represented there.
  19. Wright got out of the jam, but he's throwing a lot of pitches and having trouble locating. 15 strikes, 13 balls in the first.
  20. DeJesus walks and Hocking singles, 2-on with no-outs in the top of the 1st.
  21. Same thing goes for Mantei. Really, the Sox have a bit of a free pass when it comes to Hansen. He'll come up on Sept. 1, and then they'll try him out. If he's effective, expect him on the roster. If not, he won't be. It's the same loophole that allowed K-Rod to be used in 2002 after being called up on Sept. 15.
  22. Wow, thank you Cape and everyone else. I have a lot of family down here, so they won't go to waste, and the Sox will be well represented by us.
