This is bad, really bad.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 07:32 PM) Beckham is not having a good 10 minutes. And Salty does those splits because he gets some pleasure having his vagina rub against the Fenway soil.

Why does Salty do those horrible splits?

Good play by Konerko.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 07:23 PM) Lackey hitting Q sure LOOKED intentional, but Lackey is an idiot if it actually was. Can't load the bases up by hitting a guy because your catcher had weak hands. Quentin owns Lackey, so it's not a terrible decision.

Gordon's been pretty bad on consecutive plays.

How the hell can you call that a base hit?

I wonder what Castro was looking for there. He threw him nothing but fastballs.

Ugh Castro...

Carlos owns Lackey, that's probably why he did it.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 07:03 PM) Does anybody agree with me when I say the Red Sox are probably the best team in baseball with a relatively healthy roster? Oh definitely. They're a 90 win team without Pedroia, Youk, and Ellsbury. With them, they're probably a 100 win team.

Gavin will most likely go 6 today. Already at 60 pitches through 3.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 07:04 PM) 59 pitches for Gavin 2 on, 2 out in the third. Too much nibbling.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 07:00 PM) Really? That'd be crazy. I wish I could find that post of Kalapse's breakdown of Beltre before the season. It was really good. If I had the finances, I'd give Beltre 4 years and $60 million. Right now, he's a 5-6 WAR player, which in itself is worth around $20 million. He's going to regress, but by the end of the deal, he should produce what you paid him.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 06:57 PM) Correct. $5M So I doubt he takes the $10 million when he can get a longer deal worth a lot more. The reason why he signed in Boston was so he could get some publicity and hit in a good park for right handed hitters.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 06:55 PM) I think his option kicked in o kicks in, $10M It's a player option.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 06:54 PM) He and Ryan Zimmerman have been the two best 3B in baseball this year. I'd kill for this guy. What do you think he's looking at as far as years/money after this year? Considering people actually realize that he's a beast with the glove, I can see him getting 4 years at $15-18 million per. That might even be a conservative estimate.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 06:51 PM) Always wanted Beltre to play third for the White Sox. I've been a Beltre fan for a couple of years now. Seattle absolutely sucked the life out of his bat. Look what happens when you move him to a good park to hit in.

Carlos is a scary man.

It hurts me to see Carlos run.

QUOTE (Karko's Throat Skin @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 06:20 PM) The NESN color guy has a THICK accent. Going to be really annoying to listen to this. The guys on NESN are really freaking boring...

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Sep 4, 2010 -> 05:34 PM) Seriously? Look who you're responding to. Of course he would say that. Lackey's 3-5 against us despite having a 4 ERA. He hasn't had the best fortune against us. Lackey's posted an FIP in the high 3s since June. Load lefties against him, they're hitting .308 against him. Ideally, I would have wanted A.J. in this lineup.

We saved all our left handers in the bullpen too. Good way to start this DH off.

OVA!

If you throw nothing but fastballs to Marco, he's gonna get a good swing at em.
