Nice job this weekend by the sox taking 2 of 3. Keep that offense rolling into the twin cities this week baby!"FF, I've heard the droning about the Sawx being the baby dolls. Yeah, I get it, you guys invented baseball and suffered forever. I get it." -JearlPam09250

Dustin on a tear right now.
I really hope if Jacoby is out for a few days they don't move Dustin to leadoff.380 -
I'm tempted to take a personal day today (I work second shift) so I can watch the game this afternoon on MLB Network.I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.0

I watched Fargo last night to get fired up for this week's series with the Twins. Hopefully Lester can send them to the wood chipper this afternoon!"FF, I've heard the droning about the Sawx being the baby dolls. Yeah, I get it, you guys invented baseball and suffered forever.

ok, the suspended game is back underway, it's the 11th inning and after a Longoria error, the bases are loaded with no outs, TB has brought in a 5th infielder ... and now batting, David Ortiz.
If he fails here ... things are going to be bleak for him.
Edit - and he grounds out ... 3-2 ... oooooof.
Well, bases are still loaded with one out.
Beltre ... double play .... double oooof.
Question .... why did they wait until 7 pm eastern to start the suspended game? Should have started it at 5 or so ... today's actual game may not get underway until 9 or so ... seems pretty stupid."You're one of the few Red Sox fans I don't mind." - Newch91

Look at the bright side ... the Yankees sucked ass through April last year, and won it all.
I'm not worried about Lester. Nor the offense ... ok, Ortiz, I've officially hit the "WTF" level on. The opposite field double last night was a good start, that's how he started to break out of it last year.
Anyway ... PATRIOT'S DAY tomorrow.
Can tell you how much I miss being in Boston for that. Nothing like being in the Cask at 8 am drinking!!!"You're one of the few Red Sox fans I don't mind." - Newch91

This is fucking awesome
Obviously things will turn around but I am loving this.0 -
Man, I just checked in at the comments over at Pete Abe's blog and wow, you guys have a lot of people jumping off bridges already.0

Shit happens.
2/3 of the outfield is hurt, which includes Ellsbury, a big part of the offense. Hell, we have Bill Hall as our starting CF right now.
Youk and V-Mart will not hit in the .220s for the season.
I'm not worried about the starting pitching.
There are 5.5 months left.
Would I have liked for a better start? hell yeah ... am I worried? hell no."You're one of the few Red Sox fans I don't mind." - Newch91

I agree with jimed on this one, would have liked to see this team get off to a solid start, but even after this weekend, there's no need to panic. This team will get it together. No worries.
But my opinion on this changes daily, so who knows?"FF, I've heard the droning about the Sawx being the baby dolls. Yeah, I get it, you guys invented baseball and suffered forever. I get it." -JearlPam09250 -

I love my fellow Sox fans. So hopeful. I, on the other hand, am convinced this team will not make the playoffs. Their hitting against above average hitting last year was average at best. So they let Jason Bay walk in the off season and brought in Mike Cameron to take his place. That's a huge downgrade.
The pitching will come around but the hitting will not. They will put up numbers against the crappier teams in the league but they will struggle against the playoff teams as they have in the first 4 series.
This is a bridge year. They have some big numbers coming off the books and they will be going after some bats this off season.I'll ride the wave where it takes me.0 -

It's SITLL early people we haven't been through a MONTH of this very long season. The Red Sox will be fine, if they're playing like this in June then yeah it's time to worry.
Until then....Let's go Celtics and Let's go Bruins.

Hopeful, well yeah ... but I'm not an idiot about it. This team certianly is worse off offensively (although, go ask the Mets fans how much they like Jason Bay and his 0 HR and 2 RBIs right now)
All I'm saying is that it's April 19 and I'm not jumping off a bridge. They've had injuries to Cameron and Ellsbury, and slumps from Youk and V-Mart to start the season that should all right themselves in the next week or so. I'm not that optimistic on Ortiz however. He should certianly be sitting against lefties at this point.
Saw a Buster Olney post that stated the Sox may go after one of the Angels catchers (noting the Sox inability to throw anyone out stealing), possibly Napoli (who has some serious pop) as he's grousing over losing playing time to Mathis (who Scioscia loves). With Brandon Wood struggling, the Angels may take Lowell (if the Sox pay most of the salary, of course) ... all specualtion, but, that seems feasible.
Again, it's April 19 ... check back in a month. Perhaps this Sox shitstorm is the karma gods evening out the B's run through the stanley cup playoffs!"You're one of the few Red Sox fans I don't mind." - Newch91

That would be interesting, and it always seems that Napoli hit well at Fenway. But that begs the question, what other team dresses 3 catchers?0
