Vazquez @ Matsuzaka

 

Okay so since this game is relatively important, does that mean Javy won't show up? What's the over under on his K's?

Also, can I say that I love these east coast 6 o'clock starts. gets the game out of the way early. nice.

I like west coast because i work 8:30 in the morning untill 10:00 at night. Stupid minor league baseball

The Sox are going to mash at Fenway.Just like the Cell the ballpark suits are lineup,hell it suits anybodys lineup so I guess Iam not saying much but I expect alot of runs.

Stat of the day: Javy is 2-5 with a 4.61 ERA lifetime against Boston.

If he pitched six innings and gave up three runs, which would be about that career ERA against the Bo Sox, I would be very happy.

Since joining the Sox Javy has started 3 games vs the Sawx

 

Jul 19, 2007 @ BOS: 6.1IP, 9H, 2ER, 2BB, 5K

Aug 25, 2007 v BOS: 6IP, 6H, 7ER, 3BB, 10K

SEP 5, 2006 @ BOS: 8IP, 3H, 1ER, 3BB, 11K (Javy allows 1 run but the Sox still lose 1-0 and fall to 5.5 GB of DET)

 

So as a member of the White Sox Javy has a 1.88 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 10.05 K/9 at Fenway.

It suits right-handed pull hitters...not so much left-handed pull hitters. Luckily, Thome can hit the ball oppo over the Monster and bounce plenty high off it for doubles.

Then this really should be Crede's breakout series. He's probably the most pull-happy power hitter the Sox have.

im guessing Griffey gets the day off and we see the normal lineup?

OC, AJ, CQ, JD, JT, PK, AR, NS, JC?

Playing the Red Sox at Fenway always makes me uneasy. Go Sox!

I'm really hoping we can get 2 out of 3 @ Fenway, as Twins are cooling down and they are far away from home.

if only he would stop with that weak ass slap-it-right swing. Same s*** paulie was doing the last few months.

After today we get some good piching matchups. So a win today would be cool. All wins are cool.

Huge series. It can put us in a good position for both the Division and the Wild Card with a series win.

 

Matsuzaka actually pitches worse at home. Hopefully we can take advantage of his 1.51 WHIP in Fenway.

Pauly, 1B

Vaz Pitching.

sawks got good news on beckett, his elbow is fine. just needs some rest.

As jphat says, let's hope it's not one of those games. That was a fantastic play by Ellsbury.

FU Ellsbury.

I hate Angel Hernandez...he's such a POS. Anyways, I hope our hitters realize there's a small strike zone tonight.

nice pitch, javy.

Vazquez's perfect game didn't even last a batter compared to the 17 he had last weekend.

1-2 curveball when he hasn't thrown that pitch a single time, and somehow ortiz knew it was coming.

Javy looks just horrific tonight. Going back to last game, that's 6 in a row he's allowed to reach base.
