I know it's not Sox related, but since the majority of the board is in this thread, thought it would be interesting to post Ozzie's first controversy

I was about to say we were getting Holland's pitch count up, then we went down 1-2-3 and Morel swung at the first pitch.
At least he actually threatened the wall.
I'd rather face Holland instead of getting to their bullpen

Thought that one was going out.
He made good contact, but that's one of the concerns with him, and that is that he just doesn't have enough power to the opposite field to fit his swing. Oh well, baby steps

Still, winning that division is really important.
It really seems like there's 5 great teams in the AL (Angels, Tampa, Yankees, Tigers, Rangers) and then there's the rest of the league.
I promise this is the only time I'll type this during the season, but I'm so thankful that Peavy is done with the Sox after this year. He's definitely one of the Sox players I've disliked the most since I started following them.
I have no idea why Hawk was so excited during Spring Training after he witnessed Rios doing some hitting drill where he had to be quick at the plate. Rios needs to keep his hands back significantly more than he has been doing.

And just when you think you got through it, Napoli comes to the plate...
And to think they might have gone after Prince if they didn't get Darvish.

Hey, Morel put a ball in play kinda.
Thing that sucks is if he changes his approach for a few games because of that 0-4 4K game
