  1. If Buchholz is 3, Lester is 1... then who is 2?
  2. So Daisuke's line tonite- 8.0 IP, 4H, 0 R, 2 BB. No one made it past 3rd base against him. Its his second game with 8+ IP of 2010, and he has only had one other since 2007. He has given up 3 or less runs in 5 of his last 6 starts. By throwing more fastballs, his control is just so much better, and it looks like he will be able to lower his walks and increase his IP. He's pitching pretty well right now, that it makes me wonder if its too good to be true. I mentioned on the game thread that I saw Ortiz smack him in the dugout, so I'm expecting some clubhouse issues soon.
  3. Heads down base running by Hall there.
  4. Ortiz is having a frustrating night, but he fought hard twice to avoid the double play.
  5. After Ortiz struck out, he was pissed, and it looked like Dice-k had something to him, and Ortiz either waved something in his face, or smacked him-- I couldnt tell which, but it wasn't friendly.
  6. So, nobody else saw the Ortiz smack?
  7. WAIT-- did Ortiz just take a swipe at Dice-k?
  8. Way to run out to avoid the double play Papi! Dice-k will need every run he can get.
  9. With Dice/Wakefield pitching the next two days, the bullpen doesn't need this.
  10. He pitched yesterday, but had two days off before that. So I'd say so.
  11. That was weird... commercial while Paps is pitching?
  12. In all fairness, no one could have predicted all this.
  13. Doubront has pitched 3 games in AAA. I don't think its a good idea to promote him quite yet.
  14. Youk is about the only player on the team that has played well all season, he's playing gold glove defense and hitting extremely well. To say anything against him at this point is not being critical, its being negative.
  15. This is completely necessary. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bDSm_sWSJ_4/Se5H_oQ0XVI/AAAAAAAAAB4/btrbP7ygHcg/s400/portman.jpg
  16. I turned the tv on and it was 3-6, but damn, he just made it a close game.
  17. Not arguing with that point at all, high runs scored means its a bad start. But if he's dominating for most of the game then falls apart, it atleast shows he has the potential to dominate.
  18. At the beginning of the season, my faith in Dice-k was very strong. I thought that he was a chemistry problem on the team, but still an incredibly good pitcher. 2008 he comes in 4th for Cy Young, with a very low ERA. The WBC messed him up last year, and it went downhill, but after he came back in the fall, he pitched incredibly well. Fans were giving it to him hard-- "he only goes 5 innings" (he was averaging about 6) or "he walks too many" (true, but a wins a win). I have never seen any pitcher better at stranding hitters on the bases. This season, he's been inconsistently dominant. He's pitched two gems so far. But besides that, he's been great besides a few innings. The majority of his runs have happened in big inning situations. He usually gives up a lot of walks, but tonite he gave up none and threw like 80% strikes. Dice-k is such an incredible wildcard at this point. Will he start dominating, or will he fail miserably?
  19. The Sox are in 3rd Place!!! Take that Toronto.
  20. Youkilis and VMart?
  21. Pedroia!!! Glad to see him get a big hit, he needed it badly.
