QUOTE (Baron @ Apr 8, 2012 -> 02:45 AM) Rios is so bad You absolutely cannot have him and Alexei batting back-to-back at this point in the season.

Rios another guy who's worthless hitting the ball to right since he has no opposite field power.

Ryan Roberts, and not the guy who's dating Blake Lively

Anyone else find it funny as hell that Moyer gave up a home run to the first batter he faced tonight?

Lots of loud outs for Texas tonight.

Get the bullpen up, as Peavy's velocity seems down. This is where he hit the wall last year.

Real nice swing by Beckham there, just no luck

Nice job by Peavy there. I don't know how anyone gets Kinsler out consistently.

Anyone get the feeling that Hawk isn't a fan of Peavy anymore? Even on the balk earlier, he seemed real pissed at Peavy.

That breaking ball has been batting practice all night.

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 http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/7787381/...-castro-comment

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 8, 2012 -> 02:19 AM) 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

QUOTE (DirtySox @ Apr 8, 2012 -> 02:19 AM) 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

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Apr 8, 2012 -> 02:15 AM) 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.

Amazing stat...Peavy has not given up an unearned run in a Sox jersey.

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.

Just remember, Danks going 6 innings and allowing 3 runs was considered a mediocre start by some.

To think that Rios and Peavy are two of the highest paid players on our team...GROSS

De Aza playing way too deep, and turned that single into a triple. Peavy's slider is getting crushed.

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.

PK is just awesome! Keep pitching to him Texas

That's just awful, he wasn't even trying to steal there. EDIT: Maybe he was, seemed to be shuffling

Fister to the DL, BTW

That inning could have been way worse.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 8, 2012 -> 01:38 AM) 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.
