What's up with C. Montgomery's back? Is this a potential serious issue? Back issues can be awful and life long.

Costas has just become an old man who would rather talk about the past than live in the present. Sox fans finally have something to get excited about and cheer about, they don't want to hear about the 80's.

Venable was good in his press conference. Was upset with himself for not taking the bunt off with Romo. I really like that he called himself out.

I guess he was ready to be brought up.

Ok no more pitching to Olsen the rest of the series. He is a HR waiting to happen in this ballpark.

If Taylor shuts them down you have to win this in the bottom half. No extras and have Taylor pitch 2.

The bunting woes aside this has been a pretty good game. The Sox are competing hard which is exactly what you want to see. You want players who hate losing more than they love winning. Every Championship team is that way.

I really like the young players who are coming up. I hope like heck there is no lock out next year because i really believe that is when the window opens for this team. Learning to compete this year and next year the winning for real starts.

Venable managing like his bp isn't going to give up any more runs. Ok.

I have almost seen enough of Gonzales to say i like him.

Who cares about the 80's. Costas is coming across like a real prima donna jerk. Probably because he is. I want to watch the game tonight not look at graphics of old baseball players.

One thing Venable has brought to the Sox is he wants athletic players at every position. Look at the OF tonight.

Montgomery just looks like a baseball player should look.

It just seems like Vargas should be older than 26, but damn he is just entering his prime years. He is one of the untouchable players in my opinion, unless of course the return is incredible.

I have no problem with the call up. There comes a point where you have become all your going to in AAA and you become stagnant in your development. C. Montgomery is a prime example of that. As a rule you only get better by playing better competition. Now of course there is a chance he his totally overmatched and he has to go back down. But it's time to find that out. I wish him the best and here is to him becoming the everyday RF the Sox have been looking for.

Might just have to stick with him tonight. Can't burn the whole bp the first game of the series.

He has to come back and show the procedure he had done had no effect. If he does that the Tigers will deal him.

They about to get hot. They got some players back off the IL and Skubal about to come back.

With Fedde going to need a lot more than 4 but it's a good start.

With the upcoming schedule the Sox really need 2 of these 3 against the Twins. The next 12 after this series are against the Phillies, Braves, Dodgers, and Yankees. Things could get ugly real quick.

So then Montgomery to 3rd and Vargis to where? You have to resign Murakami and I have little doubt that doesn't happen if Ishbia has any say in it.

I'm a believer in going after the most athletic and versatile, in terms of different positions they could play, player. I want players that can run and can play good to great defense. Can Chowlowsky play anywhere but SS? If not where are you putting Colson? What about Carlson? I'm sure Venable is going to have a huge say in who is picked and because of that I will trust whomever that is. I think he has a real good feel for the game today and especially his own team.

Should I start to believe in Meidroth?

Why do the betting lines now say TBD under Sox starting pitcher?

Antonacci made that tough play look easy. He is turning in to a + LF
