    Pedroia comes up huge ... he probably never wants to leave Denver.

    Papelbon on the other hand .... :lol:

    He had more production last night than Mike Cameron has the entire season.

    Making the annual pilgrimage on Wednesday to see a key battle with the Rays. Let's hope they keep up their ways as the Red Sox do theirs.

    DAMN!!!

    First Pedroia and now Buchholz! I hope its not serious. He is desperately needed. Our best pitcher!

    ... and now V-Mart ... broken left thumb. Might not go on the DL, but he'll sure miss a few games.

    It was the San Francisco Massacre this weekend, the Sox may have taken 2 of 3 but they lost some key players, ugly weekend on that front.

    So, if you look at the opening night lineup the Sox put out ...

    J. Ellsbury lf
    D. Pedroia 2b
    V. Martinez c
    K. Youkilis 1b
    D. Ortiz dh
    A. Beltre 3b
    J.D. Drew rf
    M. Cameron cf
    M. Scutaro ss

    Only Ortiz and Beltre haven't missed games because of injury ... and several (Ellsbury, Pedroia, Cameron) have missed or will miss significant time.

    Let's not forget Beckett and Dice K missing significant time as well ... hopefully Buchholz only misses one start at the worst.

    Yet, they dug out of a huge hole are now 15 games over .500 ... how, I have no idea.

    JimEd, what hocus pocus does your fair city have on our team that brings the injury bug, jeeeesh. At least they come home to a Rays team that was no hit this weekend and had a blowup between 2 or its top 3 position players in Longo and Bossman Jr.

    This injury shit is getting ridiculous. Just really really bad. That's all I have to say.

    From Craig Calcatera's blog today

    Wanna feel old? Mike Greenwell's son is a minor leaguer

    Mike%20Greenwell%20stache-thumb-autox272-14757.jpg

    I'm guessing people in Boston were aware of this, but it's the first I've heard about it: Bo Greenwell -- son of Mike -- is a minor leaguer in the Indians' organization, playing for the Lake County Captians up in Eastlake, Ohio. It's one of those feel-good "what's it like to be the son of a big leaguer" kind of stories, which I always enjoy.

    One thing I like to do with those: try and read between the lines of all the glowing quotes to see if the kid is actually a prospect with a shot or if it's the last time we're ever going to hear about him. I thought this one was skewing distinctly in the "he probably won't make it" direction to begin with, but then I was shocked to see the reporter actually got a quote from an anonymous scout basically slamming his speed and arm strength (he said nothing about how his stache matches up to Mike's). I guess that's good reporting -- why make us wonder if you can get the actual dirt? -- but I was rather surprised to see it in what you usually expect to be a fluff piece.

    Anyway, the fact that guys who broke into the league when I was a teenager have kids old enough to be major leaguers themselves now is rather sobering.

    Now the captain goes on the DL.
    We did re-acquire Kevin Cash and his lifetime batting average of .188.
    Tito has done quite a job this year.

    The should consider having Carlton Fisk unretire for a month.

    This is way past ridiculous with the injuries.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    I can't believe both of our catches are on the DL!! :shock:

    Good thing we have the deepest team in baseball.

    You know who's gonna be carrying this team offensively in the next month? Adrian Beltre and JD Drew, that's who.

    So, Youkilis leaves the game tonight with a foot injury ... I hope it's not an achilles injury ... that would pretty much kill this season.

    Again ... opening night lineup, with who was playing that position by the end of the game tonight in red ...

    J. Ellsbury lf - Daniel Nava
    D. Pedroia 2b - Bill Hall
    V. Martinez c - Kevin Cash
    K. Youkilis 1b - Niuman Romero
    D. Ortiz dh - Ortiz
    A. Beltre 3b - Beltre
    J.D. Drew rf - Drew
    M. Cameron cf - Eric Patterson
    M. Scutaro ss - Scutaro

    oh, and tonight's starting pitcher ... Felix Doubront

    I almost stroked out when Youk left the game last night...and then again when Beltre fouled that pitch off his leg/foot and was limping around...this is beyond ridiculous
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Hello Niuman.

    Goodbye Niuman

    Red Sox Designate Niuman Romero ... make room for Ryan Shealy.

    Youk was hobbling around last night pretty badly ... I get the feeling the guy is trying to gut out an injury that's a little more serious than he's letting on.

    Kind of tough to win when half the team is on the DL.

    Yes, because Dustin Pedroia and Jacoby Ellsbury look exactly like the poster children for steroids. Lugnut.
