It was a makeup of a rain game, and they have to travel to Seattle to play tomorrow night.
-
These games are likely locks for the Mariners. We have to hope the Yankees lose a few.
-
I agree. I am not even disturbed by the low HR output; however, he seems a bit worn down right now from the biggest workload he has had in 3 years and the heat. This team needs Nixon's glove and bat big-time, and right now he is still more valuable to the team's fortunes than WMP.
-
Maybe the price has gone up.
-
He might be a little worn out. This is the most he has played in 3 years. Giving WMP some time could have the benefit of recharging Nixon.
-
What's next-- a Parade for Jeff Frye?
-
Timlin with a 1-2-3 inning for the save.
-
Timlin avoids being hit by the broken bat but covers 1st in time to get Matthews for the second out.
-
Timlin in for the save. He gets Barrajas on a pop to RF for the first out.
-
MDC with the filthy curve for the last out of the 8th.
-
It looks like Timlin will get the save opportunity if MDC holds.
-
One out for MDC.
-
You will lose a lot in the field. Nixon is a far superior fielder. I'd actually rather see WMP play a little CF for Crisp if he keeps hitting in the .260's.
-
Nixon with a terrible AB with a man on 3rd and one out. Two checked swing strikes and a popup.
-
Damn Barajas! Nice play by Loretta. Schilling's starts are pretty close to "must wins" with the shape of the rest of the rotation.
-
who the hell is this guy Littleton? He has a real funky delivery. He has the Sox looking bad.
-
He's got two hits
-
What was Loretta doing? Edit: Why the hell would Hale send him home with no one out.
-
Schilling's, Beckett's and Lester's starts are critical for the Red Sox due to the enormous fall off in quality of the 4th and 5th starters.
-
No, I think that is Dickey.
-
This is terrible news about Wakefield. It looks like the Sox wil be forfeiting 2 out of every 5 games for a while. That will put tremendous pressure on the other starters not to mention the bull pen. This could culminate in a prolonged bad streak where they lose something like 7 out of 10. This might not happen right away, but they will not be able keep their heads above water for very long with no one in the 4th and 5th slots. Maybe the Sox should just forfeit one game every 5 days to give the rest of the team a rest. Playing those games will take a huge toll on the team.
-
It was in my second sentence. "I don't deny his accomplishments."
-
I would bat Youk 7th, Tek 8th and Gonzo 9th.
-
The Sox probably don't have any certainty about how long he'' be out. It's probably a hairline fracture that will heal in a couple of weeks, but when he returns will will depend on how quickly the discomfort subsides.
-
This is a good move by the FO. It made no sense to part with top prospects if they didn't have long term plans for Beckett. Beckett is a stud. Despite the criticisms and some bad performances, he's tied for the league lead in victories.
