  1. The Sox finally have more hits than errors. (Salty isn't the first Red Sox catcher that should stop switch hitting)
  2. If only you said that at the beginning of the game. Go figure we'd only have 4 baserunners despite striking out only twice.
  3. The bright side of losing on the road means we only have to pitch 8 innings. With Lester going 7 that should be good for our bullpen.
  4. Maybe the Sox offense just sucks their first night in a city. They were shutout the first game of the Houston series. And barring a miracle they are looking to get shutout here too. It's a shame that Lester pitched decently (for once) and we wasted it.
  5. I'm more surprised by the fact that he's Chinese from Panama.
  6. I hope they do. They can have Michael Young while they are at it. I hope they win a few more games so they get a crappier draft pick.
  7. I feel like this whole team is very weak against LHP. I feel like Middlebrooks/Bogaerts could do better.
  8. I wish one could work "free weed" into a contract.
  9. Is there a downside to DFA'ing Snyder?
  10. And they aren't even good/great fielders either which lessens one possible excuse.
  11. Yeah we should see Middlebrooks or Bogaerts soon. Drew has earned his keep recently (not just tonight) and Holt is needed to cover for Pedroia, but Snyder doesn't really have a spot. I'd rather have an extra bullpen arm than Snyder. Hell, I'd rather have an extra bullpen arm batting in place of Snyder.
  12. I hope it does. We have used 1 reliever and they are already on 4....5 if they bring out their closer in a 1 run game.
  13. With a righty reliever, why would Farrell pinch hit a right bat? (And a poor one at that)
  14. He's one of their only good hitters though. That's why he's hitting 3rd.
  15. I wouldn't blame losing this game on Dempster.
  16. While it's pathetic to not get anything for having the bases loaded 1 out with your 1 and 2 hitters up, we did get their starter and a reliever out of the game and have the heart of our order to start the next inning, while Dempster is at a low enough pitch count to continue for a little while longer.
  17. I'm surprised they aren't using Snyder against the lefty.
  18. We have 11 LOB thus far, and 6 are from Carp. Granted people are saying the umps screwed him out of a walk in his first AB. And thankfully we got Cosart to 90 pitches through 5.
  19. I think he even has 7 hits in his past 7 AB's.
  20. OBP is way more valuable than slugging. I think we can sacrifice some HR's at the corner OF spot if we have Bogaerts manning short. We'd still have Ortiz, Middlebrooks/Cecchini, Salty and Napoli (or a comparable FA) at first that can hit HR's. And it's not like Ellsbury/Pedroia/Victorino/Nava/Carp/Gomes can't go deep either. Plus imagine an OF defense of JBJ/Ellsbury/Victorino.
  21. Even including this horrible season (.188/.275/.307/.583) his career numbers are .250/.331/.413/.744
  22. Considering the start I'm so happy we won the game. Tampa is losing pretty good to Arizona and now instead of worrying about getting swept we can potentially win the series and the season series (6-1) with a win tomorrow.
  23. We're definitely going to need this offense tomorrow with Dempster on the mound.
  24. If only we had some of these runs yesterday.
