Lester is laying another egg
-
Too many walks for Red Sox pitching.
-
Lester is about to surrender runs.
-
On four pitchers. What the hell is Lester afraid of? Drew Sutton? What a joke.
-
Gotta admit it: I hate call third strikes. You gotta get the bat off your shoulders there.
-
Ortiz should be bunting down the 3rd baseline here.Its wide open
-
OK...good start. The key to this series IMO is to play with the lead. The Rays have a tough pitching staff to come from behind on.

Joe Maddon: AL Manager of the Year in 2008 and 2011. If we had Maddon as a manager starting in 2008 we would have had a much better record IMO. He is innovative and isn't afraid to call out his players and to use all of his offensive weapons. I hate Maddon, but I respect him as an excellent manager.

You're right. Its pretty clear to me that Bailey is never going to see the mound at Fenway and that Reddick is going to keep hitting nearly .900 OPS. No doubt about it. After 44 games its time to make a decision about this trade, once and for all. Hell, I am surprised it took so long for us to decide.

Whats the matter with you? You don't think its fair to compare a trade the pits a position player on a hot streak to one who hasn't thrown a pitch for his team yet?

He wilted at the end of last year due to overuse. Look at his ERA from May to Sept 1. He dominated.
-
OK, fair enough. His ERA of 4.69, I wonder how that compares to other #5 SP in the league. Still, he was an excellent slam-the-door type of RP and now we are discussing whether or not he is an effective #5 SP. I think I would rather have an excellent RP than a questionable #5 SP on my team. Those guys are a dime a dozen.

Read my post again. I believe I said that "yes, its early" somewhere in there. I also said that so far there is little if anything to be encouraged about.

Come on Dojji. Look at the facts. Our lineup is MUCH better than the popgun lineup the Orioles threw at Bard. Betemit is hitting .221. Three guys in their starting lineup today are batting less than that. How many guys in our starting lineup today are batting less than .221? I'll give you a hint: its less than 1. I realize that you obstinately defend whatever the Red Sox do, but when you compare our lineup today with theirs today, it ignores the facts. Our problem has never been our lineup this year: its always been our pitching. And Bard is part of the problem.

What credible lineup? The bottom four in their lineup tonite are hitting .223/.206/.143/.059. They had a popgun lineup out there and Bard still struggled. He continues to walk too many batters and does not possess putaway stuff, an "A game", or command of any sort. A real baseball lineup would have put him away in 2-3 innings. Bard is not a SP. Its time to sign Roy Oswalt and gradually get Bard back where he belongs as soon as Oswalt is ready to pitch.
