Doubront must get hella runs support with the record and ERA he's posting.

Yeah, I actually had to double check his numbers at two different sites because it looked so wrong.

Very nice write-up/preview from WEEI.

 

Book on Doubront this year: Velo is down a couple ticks, walking a lot of guys and can't go deep in games. He's about to work his way out of the rotation it seems.

 

Perfect candidate to no hit the SOX.

Looking for Viciedo to continue his good OBP skills against Dubront and for PK to get 3 hits.

Soooo....I just got a phone call....

 

I won the DiGorno's sweepstakes grand prize! 2 tix to Sox/Cubs game next Tuesday, parking pass, and $300 giftcard. I'm so pumped.

LHS = Left-Handed Serpent?

Exactly.

 

I don't like benching Gillaspie twice in a row

It's matchups--Boston sent back-to-back lefty starters.

Match up smatch up... he's been one of the better hitters on the team and playing decent defense too. Kepp does not deserve to start with how atrocious and lackadasical he's been.

I know the reasoning, but we're trying to develop an everyday player here. Felix Doubront is nothing special. Tyler Greene is REALLY nothing special.

Kepp isn't even the one who stands to be benched.

Keppinger needs at-bats against good match-ups in order to get going. It's not a Little League team -- if we're going to have a shot to win we need more guys to find a way to produce. I like Gillaspie, but he's not carrying us into the postseason on his back.

Not batting with two black holes on either side of him he won't.

Exactly my point.

Then you missed my point then. =)

Perhaps I did. We need to get other guys in the lineup to hit too, was mine.

Beckham's playing SS again today with Angel Sanchez at 2B.

Win now, develop later mode...constant conflict in our organization at the major league level.

 

 

 

I'm assuming we're still rooting for the Indians and against the Tigers, even though CLE is poised to be 10 games over .500 and 3 1/2 games ahead if they win tonight (leading 1-0 in the 4th)??

Strap. It. Down!

I take it Gillaspie is sitting because of LHP?

I love Alexei in the two hole.
