jose, Crede and a pinch-hitter for Olivo if Jerry Manuel is paying attention in the ninth

there is some good news if the current pitching rotations hold the Sox won't have to face the fearsome Colby Lewis during the four-game series at The Cell next week whew!!!!!!!!

would figure out why this team plays s***ty on the road and can't hit cheese ball pitchers like Colby Lewis and FIX IT

last rangers pitcher to strike out 10 in a game was 596 games ago esteban loaiza last rangers' rookie to strike out 10 was Edwin correa in 1986 at least you can't say it hasn't been a historic night

i fear it will be somebody like Deivi Cruz or Felipe Lopez maybe they could pry Adam Everett from the Astros houston has several good infielders at AAA and AA

i'm open to suggestions at shortstop it was supposed to be Dellaero or Caruso. when was the last time the Sox farm system produced a shortstop I don't count Ozzie because he was a San Diego product might be Greg Pryor

shortstop will be a huge problem next season nunez ain't the guy neither is hummel nor Reyes nor Sandoval have to make a trade, get a FA or resign Valentin

let Willie harris, Aaron Rowand and Daubach have some at bats

invoke the 8-run rule, go back to the hotel and get some sleep bartolo better step all the way up and maybe we can scratch out one run or else we'll be throwing Neal Cotts to stop a four-game losing streak

IF they lose the division by one game, remember this game, the Gary Knotts game and the Sunday game against San Diego (a 1-0 loss to some cheese-whiz lefty) fondly

let adkins finish this puppy unless somebody else in the pen needs a bit of work

hawk sure thinks home plate ump Phil Cuzzi is sticking it to the Sox on ball/strike calls Welcome back to april and May

time for a jon adkins sighting? he needs to record his first big-league out

totally agree Frank needs to take at least one and probably two nights off my guess? Manuel won't do it

sit frank

i agree that Jose wasn't going 100 percent. 75 to 80 and you forgot one thing about this game: the Rangers are starting Nolan Ryan Lewis tonight, who came into this game allowing 168 baserunners in 82 innings

by the end of this night, we'll be debating if it's time to summon Jeremy Reed from Birmingham. I believe he bumped his average back to .400 yesterday and Bullard sez he can play CF

Earth to Jerry Manuel: Raffy can rake. he could probably even hit Colby Lewis. but i'm not sure.

even rooney and Farmer just said it: They know the Sox are tired because they got to the hotel at 6 a.m. But the Rangers are playing this game at a higher gear.

manuel, however, is the manager of the team you can't just sit there and let Everett kill you in center field night after night play rowand in center and let Everett DH. sit Konerko or Frank each once a week. And that's the second time in three games Valentin has overestimated his speed and ability to read plays while getting himself thrown out at third this game is about over

let's get some runs Twins are blasting the Royals

this excuse about not being able to hit a pitcher they've never seen before is getting real old hitters face teams they've never seen before every night in the big leagues. it's part of being a pro

it's manuel's fault because he keeps putting him out there. this isn't the first time Everett has been unable to read balls. He ALWAYS breaks back and then has to come in he can't play center field very well and we can't hit Colby Provolone Swiss Lewis

this is horse bleep

Jerry is still sleeping in the dugout at Anaheim?
