Balta1701 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 1, 2008 -> 01:30 PM) Supposed to pitch game 3 last I read. he big test will come Thursday, when Red Sox ace Josh Beckett gives his strained right oblique the test of a side session. But he took a smaller test on Tuesday, one that gave manager Terry Francona some enthusiasm that the penciled-in Game 3 start for Beckett in this American League Division Series against the Angels is not a reach. "Beckett threw starting at 60 feet and made 30 throws," Francona said. "He moved back to 90 and made 20. Then he came back to 60 and the ball came out of his hand real well. Everything was very encouraging. He'll long toss [Wednesday], side day Thursday. Everything was real positive." complete postseason coverage If Beckett hadn't strained the oblique in that side session at Fenway late last week, he would have started Game 1, given his October resume and his ace status. But the Red Sox continue to hope for the next best thing -- that he'll take the ball on Sunday at Fenway in Game 3. "Again, I think we think he's going to pitch, and if he doesn't, we couldn't come into a series without being ready, hopefully, for everything," Francona said.

(if we win of course) Plus, regardless on whose really the stronger team, I can't stand the Sawx. If it was the Rays vs. the Angels, I would love to see any one of them represent the AL in the W.S. not the Sawx.

GoodAsGould Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 If Beckett is healthy I dont think we matchup well vs RedSox at all, we cant hit him or Dice K. Not 2 mention its not like Lester is a push over. Although, as long as we are alive to play in the ALCS im happy... whether it be redsox or angels.

whitesoxfan101 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) I'm starting to think there is some sort of Donnie Moore curse at work when these teams get together in October. The Angels are now 0-10 against Boston in the playoffs since Dave Henderson's 9th inning home run cleared the wall in game 5 of the 1986 ALCS, assuming you include that game (and you should, it actually ended up going 11 innings).

Flash Tizzle Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 If anyone wants to feel better about themselves watch this game. Anaheim has already stranded 8 runners on 8 hits, 3 walks through five innings. Even though they have three runs, it should have been more. And Hunter just committed a showboat error in CF trying to make a basket catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 (edited) Any way we land Teixeira in the offseason? There's 2 reasons I say we have no chance: 1. Despite playing well at the end of the year, we'd never trade Konerko. 2. Reinsdorf won't pony up $180-200 million over 7 or 8 years (that's been reported as to what Teixeira is looking for).
