QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 20, 2013 -> 03:08 PM) I've seen this movie before. It doesn't end well for Cleveland. Same stuff. Different year. Well said, let's see how they do against the Tigers.

Sounds far fetched and that's putting it mildly.

Might be a good night to give Casper some AB and put Viciedo at DH for a RH heavy batting order.

Haven't the SOX owned Lester in the past?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 17, 2013 -> 03:27 PM) I still really don't believe the Red Sox are that good. After this weekend, their schedule will have included 9 games against the Blue Jays, 4 against the Astros, and 7 against the Twins (and they're only 2-3 against Minnesota this year). They have not had a difficult schedule thus far. Devil's advocate here but aren't good teams suppose to beat bad teams?

Let's make it 4 in a row!

Jake Peavy IMO owed the Sox that deal considering he was injured and got paid like an ace for those years. Granted it's his choice and I'm glad he did what he did considering he would've got paid on the FA market.

all the above

If Danks can improve his contact rate, then we can talk. Danks is always swinging for the fences. DWise makes contact and hustles for doubles. He does make base running gaffes from time to time but he also has some pop in his bat too.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ May 15, 2013 -> 05:01 PM) You wouldn't call 4.17 ERA "serviceable" for a 5th starter? He said something bogus about Axelrod. I wasn't talking about about his performance in the slightest. witesoxfan making me look like an asshole again.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 15, 2013 -> 04:29 PM) Nice effort by AXELROD. He has been a very serviceable 5th starter for us. That is just wrong.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 15, 2013 -> 04:18 PM) 9 runs? How? #TWTW

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2013 -> 02:43 PM) If your #5 pitcher goes 5 innings allowing 2 runs after your #1 and 2 go 9 and 7 innings the previous 2 days, you can't really complain. Agreed. Lindstrom is a professional and he just didn't get the job done today.

That will definitely shut all the Beckham haters up.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 15, 2013 -> 01:10 PM) Hopefully Axelrod can settle down and get a 1-2-3 inning. +1 C'mon Axeman!

QUOTE (Jake @ May 15, 2013 -> 01:04 PM) Dunn. Is. Back. We'll see.

Pitch around Dunn to get to Konerko... lawl

How Pelfrey continues to pitch to Alex is beyond me.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 15, 2013 -> 12:51 PM) Sox make alot of very average hitters look like all-stars. Escobar is batting over 300. He is far from an average hitter.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 15, 2013 -> 12:47 PM) I think the Axelrod/Santiago decision is a pretty easy one. Elaborate.

Right down the middle and poof, peace baseball.

Kepp sure does make a LOT of contact to the defenders. What is wrong with this buffon. Work the count and get on base like you were paid to do.

Good stuff Axe. Not keep the ball down damn't.

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ May 15, 2013 -> 12:26 PM) I am sure I'll get flamed for this but Beckham makes that play without a doubt. Flamed for pointing out a fact? I don't think so.
