Too many forget just how long it takes most pitchers to develop. Some develop almost immediately but that is the exception, not the norm. Garland will be fine.

One step at a time though. Finish this one, then beat Oakland tomorrow then go into Seattle. It would be huge though. I predicted we'd go 4-2 on the swing, but we'll have to wait and see.

I'd let Graffy leadoff again, stick with the hot hand. Put Jimenez in the 8 with Olivo in the 9 hole. I wonder if this lineup has much of a future. With Frank hitting in the 2 hole it definately helps spread the lefties, plus Frank really is getting on base and it will put him in a position to see a ton of fastballs, hopefully getting in a groove.

Exactly. In this case I think D'Ang was benched because of his error. Otherwise D'ang is a better player against lefties.

I tell you all one thing, this has to be the most enjoying game I've seen the Sox play in a long long time. They had a ton of baserunners, were hitting the ball opposite field all night, were in motion a ton and had good pitching (As long as we get through it in the ninth alright). Damn, I'm feeling a lot better about this team mainly because if Frank can keep hitting, then this team will be just fine. Everyone showed a much better approach as well, now they just have to keep repeating it. This could be a game that sparks a big winning streak.

Almost a great defensive play. Thomas and Graffy have been damn good.

I'll take our chances with Lowe.

Well I do that deal if they can work out a 3 way with Lee going somewhere else and the Sox picking up someone like Sidney Ponson and a prospect. Even then it scares me to move Garland. I'd rather trade Rauch or one of our AAA'ers.

Olivo will keep getting more playing time. I love Olivo. Graffy is doing really good too tonight. On base all 6 times he's been up. Thats what I'm talking about. To me Olivo will eventually fit in as a 2 hole hitter, imo.

And he can fix outfield walls (kind of) He has to get a new mitt, that thing is ridiculous If it keeps him dropping balls when he plays us, then let him get the new one after the Sox leave town.

Yep, Marte will stay in now, mainly because three of the next four hitters are lefties.

Did he want to send Lee and Garland there? If we send Lee, then send Lee and a AAA pitcher for him. I don't want to trade any of our starting pitchers.

I don't have a problem with Everett. ESPN just had a piece on him and how his attitude has really changed. Imo, he's never been a cancer, just a loaner. And he's got loads of talent. He'd definately be the type of player the Sox offense could use.

I'm with you guys, he can play on my team anyday.

That was just proposed by Rogers from what I can see LDF. I just wonder how they could add the salary.

I guarantee we see Koch in the ninth.

I wouldn't deal Garland for him, but I'd be more then willing to deal another prospect for him. I just don't think Everett would have that much value, even with his hot start.

It won't work on the continuation of old posts, only with posts that start from now on.

If people like it the other way better, I can go back and change it no problem. I just figure this makes it much easier to follow posts.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Problem solved. The feature now works.
