    call Ripley's. A Red Sox catcher just threw out a baserunner.

    What it comes down to people, is that a very good team with excellent fundamentals saw the matchup coming for months, scouted us extensively, found an approach that worked, and executed it well. what the rest of this series will boil down to is whether or not we can respond and adjust on the fly. If we can, we've got a chance. If they continue to expoint our weaknesses it's over.

    Pretty much. Just repeat after me people. "Whatever we offered for Teixeira, the Yanks would have gotten the opportunity to match or beat and they would have done so."

    I still think the roster is good. the problem is the bats we do have decided to go cold at the worst imaginable time. No one goes anywhere in the playoffs when SIX of their starting 9 have one or fewer hits.
  8. Dojji
    Honestly, how much worse could they possibly do? At least some of those guys might feel the had something to prove.

    Because Alex Gonzalez is an offensive superman and it makes no sense at all to rotate out underperforming hitters and there's anything to lose seeing what the bench can do?

    They have plenty of room to regress while still winning 1 game out of the next three.

    If this score holds up we have to win one game on the West Coast to advance even if we sweep at home. Can you really look someone in the eye and tell them you think the Sox are going to do that? (not can, but will?)
  15. Dojji
    No, not quite, but the kind of sure thing that everyone thinks we need to acquire is more myth than reality. Remember, in 2005 we got bumped out of the playoffs even WITH Manny and Ortiz at top form. You can stack the odds in your favor, but the rolls still need to fall your way.

    Yeah, I don't think it's the roster per se. IMHO, this roster is as well constructed as you can reasonably expect. These last two games are the sort people point to when they say the playoffs are a crapshoot. In the end, the Angels are a good team. They had a better record than we did, and won their division. If they get past us, that's not a shame or a tragedy. It's just baseball, with us at the losing end. That happens a lot to teams that are by any reasonable measure the slightly worse of two teams in a series.

    We're all seasoned fans. there's a feel to a team that's going to go deep into the playoffs, and another feeling again to a team that isn't. I think we all know the difference in a not quite instinctual way. How you respond to that feeling is more or less based on how determined you are not to believe it. Just IMHO. I would love to eat these words for the remainder of the month of October, no one better.

    Yeah. I've been feeling kinda... hollow about this series. I mean when you've got Beckett starting, even down 1-0, you're supposed to have some confidence except.... for some reason, all I feel is numb.
  19. Dojji
    This is quite a bit like 2005.
  20. Dojji
    The Angels have been due for a playoff series like this against us since at least 2004.
  21. Dojji
    Game.
  22. Dojji
    Not a bad play there by Mikey.
  23. Dojji
    Bad umpiring is bad umpiring. I don't even like it when it saves our hide.
  24. Dojji
    bucknor is now bailing us out. Morales should be walked right now. One of the called strikes was in the righthanded batters' box.
  25. Dojji
    Beckett's lost it.
