Good job by Gordon there, Jeter flashed leather as Rios smoked that ball.

Beckham advances on a WP by Andy P.

Beckham now looking very 09'ish which is great. I know it's only been few AB's but he's been doing exactly what he needs to do.

Freddy throwing the sickest batting practice I've seen in a while.

1-2-3.

There you go, 4-2 Sox on a SF by Gordon.

There you go, Pettite has nothing tonight.

Pierre needs to get on with a 3-0 count, dont even bunt.

Move him over?

Ramirez SS Beckham 2B Rios CF Konerko 1B Quentin DH Teahen 3B Nix RF Lucy C Pierre LF Garcia P

More changes to the lineup. Andruw Jones is out because of back spasms. They don't want Quentin playing the field because of his hamstring so it is Jayson Nix playing RF tonight.

Eh, if he can be the 06/07 Jermaine and DH I would be all for it. Please send Pierre packing.

That's really cool, can't wait to watch it. It looks way different from what I imagined.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 07:38 PM) Nobody can, because he is in fact useless. For the sake of this team I hope he figures it out because if I don't see Ozzie/Kenny getting rid of him and he is signed for next year too.

With Pierre being a bust so far I have few things on my mind. With him not leading off which was clearly the reason why he was brought here in a first place, you have to ask yourself what does he bring to this ballclub? His defense is mediocre out there, no arm whatsoever. Question number 1: If Pierre is not batting leadoff would you want him out of the lineup and have Kotsay play LF and bat 9th? Kotsay, Rios, Jones, Q at DH, or you can rotate all these guys between these spots. Question number 2: With Sox still needing a big left handed bat, now that Pierre is failing do you see Sox trading for let's say Adam Dunn? He can play LF and brings the bat to the lineup. Conclusion if Pierre can't leadoff he is pretty much useless for this club and hurts you more than he helps. Prove me wrong.

Ozzie mentions Teahen, possibly Beckham as a new leadoff man, Pierre might bat 2nd but 9th for now.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 04:28 PM) Fantastic. Did they mention who's leading off? Not yet, Gonzales confirms, Merkin says Pierre won't be playing tomorrow and MIGHT be moved down in the order. Quentin also not in the lineup tomorrow following the hamstring strain.

Cowley just said, Pierre is riding the pine tomorrow and IS NOT A LEADOFF batter, he will be batting 9th instead.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 04:12 PM) Sox are 7th most hated team in baseball Gotta try harder, Ozzie won't take that s***.

PFK!!!

Win! Over.

Is this a save opportunity now that hes allowed all these runs?

Bobby throwing 94 and keep in mind the gun is slow.

Big Bad Bobby Jenks ladies and gentlemen !
