  1. Dustin Pedroia is not Howie Kendrick or Kosuke Fukudome. He's not a player you bump to 8th in the order or bench completely cause he goes 0 for 2 games, he's a guy you treat as if he's up there swinging with a boat oar because he is that good of a hitter.
  2. no f***ing way that caught the corner
  3. come on, a little October magic please
  4. good job, Sager. nice sleuth reporting
  5. Pedroia is so due, its ridiculous
  6. when he isn't luckier than s***, Jacoby is damn good
  7. well, he grinded out 5 and kept them in it
  8. I think Tito's afraid that Beckett will rip off his head and s*** down his neck if he goes out to pull him
  9. seriously? why is he waiting to bring in a reliever with inherited runners?
  10. The fact that he's out in the 5th should significantly affect your opinion as to whether Beckett is hurting or not
  11. Beckett clearly doesnt have it tonight but it really doesnt look like the oblique is the reason
  12. this just isnt post-season Beckett, its painfully obvious its gonna take smoke and mirrors to pull this one out tonight
  13. Lineups... 1. Jacoby Ellsbury, RF (.143, .250, .143) 2. Dustin Pedroia, 2B (.389, .389, .444) 3. David Ortiz, DH (.200, .250, .200) 4. Kevin Youkilis, 1B (.250, .368, .563) 5. Jason Bay, LF (.333, .333, 1.333) 6. Mike Lowell, 3B (.214, .267, .214) 7. Jed Lowrie, SS (.250, .250, .250) 8. Jason Varitek, C (.000, .333, .000) 9. Coco Crisp, CF (.294, .294, .706) 1. Chone Figgins, 3B 2. Garret Anderson, LF 3. Mark Teixeira, 1B 4. Vladimir Guerrero, DH 5. Torii Hunter, CF 6. Juan Rivera, RF 7. Mike Napoli, C 8. Howie Kendrick, 2B 9. Erick Aybar, SS SP: Joe Saunders (17-7, 3.41)
  14. True, the Sox executed the transition perfectly but how many organizations can execute a series of 3-4 drafts with the kind of success the Sox did to have a Papelbon, Lester, Pedroia, Youkilis, Masterson, Delcarmen and Ellsbury all come up at relatively the same time and thrive? I can't think of another team that has benefited from the farm team as much as the Sox in recent years. And when they do rely on a rookie to hold down the last spot in the rotation and he flames out, as Buchholz did, they Sox had that contigency plan with Masterson, Colon and then Byrd. The best the Yankees could realistically do with replacing Hughes and Kennedy was bring in Rasner, Igawa and Ponson.
  15. Omar Minaya is itching to do it
  16. Josh, what do you think of jacko's doubting your health tonight? http://thestartingfive.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/josh-beckett5.jpg
  17. he was worth $20 mil a year for the 7 1/2 years he spent here
  18. I guess it would only make sense to bring yet another Pirates outfielder into the rivalry
  19. The idea of rebuilding with youth is that you're gonna suck for at least a year or two while the young guys learn to grow and develop while understanding and thriving under the pressure of being cornerstones of the team. Can that be done in New York? With that media? With that fanbase? With a new stadium? With Hank? I don't think so
  20. Youk's defensive versatility means you can smart with how many innings Lowell plays next season
