Getz needs to be batting in the 9 spot when we get everyone back. Wouldn't mind seeing Alexei in the 2nd spot to see what he can do.

Hawk getting way too excited about a pretty normal fly ball by Pods. It was funny to hear Stone immediately correct Hawk.

Cito Gaston really is a hell of a manager.

Yay...bloop single. Lillicurse should be bunting.

Does Fields have any options left to get sent down?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 16, 2009 -> 06:22 PM) I meant on AJ trying to get the guy at 3rd instead of letting him get back I thought they would have had him out easily at 3rd base. Second time today there seemed to be no communication on the field

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 16, 2009 -> 06:19 PM) Did we just botch another run-down? No, it was actually a great relay. Dye played it perfectly off the wall.

Why is no one yelling at AJP to throw it to 3rd base?

It just feels like we're waiting for Toronto to get 2-3 runs in an inning, and that's ball game.

QUOTE (WCSox @ May 16, 2009 -> 06:11 PM) Has it been written in stone that Anderson and Pods will platoon? Why not just use Pods off the bench as a 4th OF? It's Ozzie we're talking about.

Hawk is losing it. It's great...Greg Walker really must have incriminating pictures of someone.

Alexei and Fields have now both made outs on pitches that would have hit their shoulder. Keep up the good plate presence boys.

The pathetic thing is it's not like we're even hitting the ball hard.

Since when is Randy Wells good? He's throwing a filthy splitter/change-up in the mode of Harden.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 16, 2009 -> 07:02 PM) I don't get why people think Anderson is staying in AAA. It's a damn rehab stint. Chances are he'll be starting in CF again after this series. We face Baker on Tuesday. Pods will be starting in CF. Let's just hope Quentin gets healthy soon.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 16, 2009 -> 05:57 PM) He can't just be slumping in May? With that massive hole he has on the inner half of the plate, he just might not be ready for this level. It's scary how similar he is to Ryan Sweeney, with regards to lack of ability to do anything with an inside pitch. Maybe our expectations were just too high for him? It's not like he's been a can't-miss prospect for the last few years. Up until hitting for a little power last year, he was always thought of as a utility player in the majors.

It's interesting to hear Hawk complain for the 2nd straight game about how awful we are against pitchers we've never faced before.

Getz is looking like just another Sox prospect who's not ready to contribute at the MLB level when they get promoted. Hopefully that changes with the new crop of Sox prospects.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ May 16, 2009 -> 05:48 PM) So can someone PLEASE explain to me why Lillibridge is still on this team? What does he bring to this team? Why do we accept failure and under performing? FEAR THE LILLICURSE

Great relay to get Scutaro at 3rd!

Wow Fields...wow

Colon's velocity seems way down so far. 85-87 mph range.

Sox caught a break....he was safe, as Getz was slow getting the tag down.

The end of the world is near....Pods with a great throw to get Bautista out at 2nd.

Scutaro should get a ball behind him next AB.
