BOSTON RED SOX: THIS IS OUR ****ING CITY - Page 149 - Single-Team Season Threads -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

think he mainly meant wait til we at least have a sample size that gets us into the warm months.

gonzo is nast mcgast. all there is to it. if he was hitting 200/290/350 at the end of may i'd still feel pumped about his last 4 months. he's put up youk quality numbers in san diego, and his swing is great for fenway. literally as worried about him as i am about lester (that being not at all)

wow 3 ball counts to 6 of the 11 last batters. Lester does not have it tonight.

gotta say i'm a huge fan of scioscia's perpetual crankiness.

less a fan of lester looking like 06 lester so far tonight, but whatever.

even LESS a fan of the mid pitch car commercials, nesn. anyone else getting this?

kinda wish crawford got a hit there. wouldn't have been the right scoring but that was a nice at bat, would've been nice to see it show up in his stats.

nah. his A move is great. has a few pickoffs in his career. he does phone it in a lot tho.

in other news, how many more XBH until we can waive the mandatory 5 year wait between retirement and being put on the HoF voting for lowrie?

EDIT: just to be clear, i'm not saying that we should like induct him as soon as he retires, i'm saying we should do it in the next homestand

meh, putting him in the HoF would be doing them a favor. we should start inducting other guys into the Hall of Lowrie instead.

also i honestly have no clue why jenks is in this game
they had a 3 run league wheeler is more than capable, jenks hasn't looked all that good lately plus adding on this is his 3rd straight game.

he'll make it hapn, capn style. end of the year he'll be hittin ~300 w ~40 steals. and he'll field his ass off. that said it hasn't been pretty so far, no doubt.

keep the music happenin, sox. dice v santana's do able, and lackey v palmer i take the sox. now'd be as good a time as any for the season's first sweep.

i think the guy writing the lineups probably has a better idea of how to manage the ego of the guy he spends every day with than you do
