No Ozzie tonight. Got a feeling that Ramirez, Beckham and Rios are going to lead us tonight, and Freddy will bounce back and keep the Rays off balance. Hope we see Q back in the lineup.

Please use spolier tags I am only up to last Saturday with my DVR......can't wait to get to Lost sometime over the weekend.

2.41? Not looking good for us tonight.

I'll be at the game giving the boys some good mojo. I'll make it 2-0 when I'm in attendance for a Sox game.

I don't know if we win tonight or not, but the Sox usually hit fastball pitchers.

Great opportunity here for the Sox. They can take a game here, and still have Danks and Peavy (who can still be devastating if he's got it figured out) going on Sat-Sun.

Are we ever going to throw out an actual starting lineup with (what should be) our nine starters? It just seems like we keep going from having TCQ out, Kotsay in, Jones out, AJ out, Castro in without rhyme or reason.

Mark Kotsay has 0 hits this year against LHP. David Price probably isn't exactly a pushover from that side.

 

Quentin has been awful the whole season, and Kotsay has been hot (>.900 OPS) for the last 3 weeks. Jones has struggled the last month but has still been vastly better than Quentin.

At least Vizquel is not playing

I'm not talking about tonights game in particular, i just haven't seen a lineup with our best nine (A.J, Konerko, Beckham, Teahen, Ramirez, Jones, Rios, Pierre, TCQ) in some time. We're abusing versatility.

That's the point. They're not our best 9.

Unless you mean not our best 9 this month (since Kotsay is hitting very well in May and even Vizquel, though he would be on our best 9 if he wasn't 43 and on the verge of retiring) you are 100% wrong on this one. They are our best 9. Two months don't make a career. I don't even think thunderbolt would put Jayson Nix in his best 9 and he's Nix's biggest fan on this site.

In the long-term, I'd rather seem that lineup then any lineup with Vizquel or Kotsay in it. For now, Kotsay can ride his hot streak, but the nine i listed are the best guys on the roster (which says more bad then good.)

And until Beckham and Quentin start hitting, I'm not going to complain one iota if they keep rotating through the bench every 2-3 days to work on their swings in the batting cage.

I was more weirded out by us benching A.J. for Castro. We should be exposing A.J. to as many scouts as possible.

Against a tough LH pitcher?

 

If a team doesn't know what they're getting with AJ by now, then they have some serious scouting issues.

Nix starting for Teahen.
