    Yep, besides for that first inning of the first series, none of Rowand's catches were truly sensational catches.  Sure, he got very good jumps and caught the ball.  However, I'd guess that almost any CF not named Bernie would have caught a majority of those fly balls.  The Seattle catch basically won the Sox the game.

    I think that there's very few CF's who would have made all those plays...guys named Edmunds, Jones, a healthy Hunter come to mind, but other than that I think a lot of them would have fallen and been taken on 1-2 hops.

    Am I the only one who is finding it amusing how much press Rowand has received for his defense in NY, even though his catch vs Seattle was much more important in the scheme of things?

    Nope. And I don't think anything from NY was his best work of the year either. Thank Goodness we don't have a biased media.

    We didn't score that inning, but we worked Wells, having some solid ABs, and have his pitch count up to 57.

    At this rate, he'll be lucky to go 6, maybe even 5.

     

    Salivating over that Red Sox bullpen...3rd worst bulpen ERA in the big leagues....
