2 pitches, 2 swings. Paps needs to get them off his first pitch.
-
Oh poop. Papelbon not looking good.
-
Lester's K rate jumped after a few years in the league, I expect Buchholz' to follow suit.
-
Still a great job by Lackey. I'll take 8 IP, 3 ER anyday.
-
Dang you, Spuddy, if you'd hit submit on that post 30 seconds later...
-
Is Papelbon warming?
-
Ya fair nuff
-
So Lowrie can play SS.
-
Lackey's having a Wakefieldian outing. Lots of fly balls, but none of them go very far.
-
Was hoping for the RBI bunt single lol. Ahh well. Ellsbury seriously needs to bunt more. He's got the legs to bunt for a hit, and a healthy fear of the bunt will force teams to draw in the infield and increase his avg.
-
Sweet hit by D McD.
-
I think we may just learn to love Salty.
-
Lackey's pitch count is low but I'd still bring in the pen for the 8th. They're starting to find him.
-
Nice to have range in CF.
-
This isn't looking good. I have a bad feeling about this inning.
-
Fair at bat by Lowrie.
-
Lackey still looking good. I'll trade a run for a GIDP with a 3 run lead.
-
na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, good bye.
-
More pop from Papi.

I'm hoping he gets the walks down, but frankly Buchholz has impressed me immensely this year. He's learned how to pitch and is doing it way better than I thought he ever would. I thought honestly that he'd be a stuff-first guy with a mid 3 ERA at his peak, with a consistency problem stopping him from taking that last step. Boy did he show me! I think as he gets the finesse aspect of the game down fully, he'll tune up the power again and the strikeouts will come -- he's still developing and he hasn't really been "turned loose" yet IMHO, they're still asking him to do things a certain way so he'll get them down longterm. We're looking at an ace in the making, barring some kind of disaster all that remains is a finishing touch or two. The idea that this kid still has room to improve makes me all tingly.

Doubt it. I mean maybe some team is desperate enough at 3B to give him a look, but he's had his chance at a starting job and did consistently poorly. My guess is that most of the league sees him as, at most, a RH platoon partner for every position ever. That's worth starting AB's, but all over the freaking place, not really a starter. I think a guy like Hall could easily pull down 4-5M/year as a bench dude next year though. He's going to be surprisingly pricey because his combination of versatility and power is danged hard to find.

Engage your small sample size filters, but Lowrie's hitting .311/.426/.444/.870. Yeah. Over about 60 PA's. But still, he's not to blame for how small the sample is, it's his job to perform when he *does* get put in, and he's doing that. I still hold out this fantasy that Lowrie winds up taking the SS job by storm next year, not because Scutaro sucks but because Lowrie's just plain better. He's def got the potential, if the team is openminded enough to give him a decent look. For now I'll settle for him pretty much guaranteeing he makes the roster if healthy next year. Once a guy's on the roster, anything can happen. Young players have changed the plan before. Youk did it, Papelbon did it twice so you just never know.
-
Sure it can -- it's former Boston property that's killing NYY. Can't get any better than THAT.
-
That was fun. Let's do all the rest of them that way.
-
Kinda, but I've found that one of the stops along the path to insanity is failing to be satisfied by good news just because it wasn't fantastic news.
