QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 12, 2013 -> 06:11 PM) Now 2 quality starts in his last 9, the other against DET on September 10th. Masterson coming out for the 9th with over 100 pitches. That's a bit of a shocker, in this weather. Hill will likely face Adam Dunn. Have to love Francona's confidence. 108 pitches. Ace vs. the other team's best power threat, RHP vs. lefty batter. Typical manager pulls Masterson and prevents the possibility of a win for his pitcher. Why are you even bothering to count the starts at the end of last year. We all know he pitched a lot more innings in a season than he ever had before .

On the bright side helluva 7 innings for Q.

A little oppo power from Condor.

The new Q pitching great.

Nice snab Rios.

Might see more scoring in the Blackhawks /Redwings game.

More fuel for the fire regarding Hawks recent stance on sabremetrics. http://www.hardballtimes.com/main/blog_art...arls-of-wisdom/

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 06:05 PM) If Beckham has to Dl, call up Omogrosso and flip to a 6 man rotation for 2 turns. Leaves on kind of short on the bench for interleague play.

Try the Veal. No thanks. Span sitting dead red after failure to throw a strike with the hook.

OK Veal try not to walk the 1st lefty you face this time.

I'm not going to say Gavin has a Zito curve but I'd sure like to see it more often.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 10, 2013 -> 05:56 PM) Crazy, 6 of the 7 video highlights are for the Nationals at MLB.com. And I thought ESPN was biased, lol. Ground out RBI isn't sexy.

Take him out now.

Another fastball inner half.

OK Gavin give up nothing this inning and it's a QS.

Manufactured run , still prefer the HR.

Lets see how carefully he pitches to Rios.

Let's put some hits together without a caught stealing or DP !

Sure seems like the Nats are teeing off on the fastball. Where's the curve and change ?

Glad Gavin got Werth for the last out last inning because I didn't want Harper up with men on.

Theoretically the SB attempt cost a run if you think Rios would've been on 2nd bas after the Dunn GO > of course then Zimmerman maybe doesn't pitch PK the same way.

Beckham is listed day to day after irritating a nerve in his left wrist. If he is DL'ed what should the Sox do ? Who do they call up ? I think we see Kepp at 2nd and Gillaspie at 3rd mostly . Against lefties more of Angel Sanchez at 2nd . Do they call up Carlos Sanchez ? Another outfielder ? Look to make a trade ?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 9, 2013 -> 07:19 PM) Make sure you are on here when give away Gavin gets torched. Nats are a terrible matchup for him. We can pick this up then. Laroche HR's are killer now. I'm sure you'll be giggling with glee saying I told you so and enjoying your rightness rather than hoping Gavin pitches well. I hope you bet the farm on Gavin sucking.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2013 -> 07:22 PM) After all the struggles vs Gio, the offense really turned it around only to see the pitching blow up. Sox just need to find a way to keep getting people on for Rios. Still think the biggest mistake was Robin leaving Peavy out there.
