  1. Ellsbury and Pedroia with chances to get an insurance run.
  2. No, you need to keep him available if Lowell reinjures himself. Nice lead off hit by Lowrie.
  3. Lowrie, Tek and Ellsbury due. It looks like it will be a 1 run going to the bottom of the 9th.
  4. looked like a hanging slider on 2-1.
  5. Stupid baserunning by Vlad. Nice throw by Youk. I didn't know if Lowell could get to him with the bad hip.
  6. Ellsbury is a highlight reel in the OF. I thought he had no chance.
  7. nexrt two pitches in the dirt. please.
  8. Tonight the bridge should be Lester. I would not give the 8th inning guys the chance to blow this game. His pitch count might be high but Vlad would probably swing at the first pitch.
  9. He's not gonna run hard on routine plays. He probably will need 2 days off if he goes first to third or second to home.
  10. I can't believe that Darren Oliver is a. still in the majors, b. part of a very good bullpen, and c. getting the Sox out easily
  11. Because the Angels will turn cartwheels when he is taken out of the game. He is dominating right now. You don't know if you will get anything approaching that from the pen.
  12. I'd send Lester out for the 8th. He's very strong right now. That was a BS call on that hellacious curve.
  13. He looked absolutely terrible in his first two ABs, but he crushed that. Lester is dealing now. His pitch count is 100, but I'd send him out for 1 more inning, then mix and match the 8th and Papelbon in the 9th.
  14. It is very hard for the ball to find grass with Hunter and Matthews in the OF.
  15. I'm not questioning your judgment, but rather Sciosia's judgment.
  16. Then he shouldn't be batting 8th.
  17. Garrett Anderson batting 2nd against Lester? I realize that he is 3 for 7 against Lester, but that seems to be a tough matchup for the Angels. I am also surprised that Matthews, another lefty hitter, is playing.
  18. Injuries is an excuse. The Red Sox lost a ton of games by All Star caliber players, traded their best offensive player, played another 6 weeks without their second best player, and lost Schilling for the season. The rays were missing Crawford for the last six weeks, Longoria for a month, and they were essentially without a closer for the entire season. The Yankees problems run much deeper than injuries. They stunk. There record is quite misleading. They got as close as they did, because they picked up some ground when the games really no longer mattered to the Rays and the Sox. They were a third place team pretty much wire to wire this season and they were fighting to stay out of 4th place. Your aging offense, relic SS, idiot manager and unaccomplished GM will have to overcome numerous obstacles to return to the post season next year. Among those obstacles are: the relic at SS with no range (he will hurt the sinkerballer Wang tremendously) and the idiot manager and GM.
