Matthew Posted July 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Thank you Francona for leaving Saito in the game, good decision! Very strange top of the 9th managing by Francona, the bullpen must have been over worked or something to let Saito, who was pitching very poorly, stay in and lose that game for Boston.

Dan Gould Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 Losers of three out of four, all by the bullpen. Motherfucking pathetic. Now as soon as the MFY push across a run, the lead will be a game, and surely gone before the break. MOTHERFUCKING PATHETIC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I gotta say I am shocked Wakefield got chosen for the All-Star game. I mean 10, possibly 11 wins at the break is an accomplishment, and as the second oldest participant its a great achievement, but his ERA is just OK, and matching him up with a catcher who has never caught him in a game before is awfully risky in a game that "counts". With Mauer as the starter and having presumably caught R.A. Dickey, does this mean that Wake will start the game? Or does Wakefield get the honor but won't play unless it goes to extra innings and they might need him for four innings? Cause with someone unfamiliar with catching him, it won't take three or four innings to have a winner. It will be over almost immediately.

Wakefield getting chosen is more of a Lifetime Achievement honor. His first time, he's been around forever, and he'll love it. A good guy, who is getting a good reward. Bastita is coming in for Seattle, so Boston will go ahead this inning.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I'm glad your call was right as the MFY are making sure that the Blue Jays will be sellers this month. What a pathetic bullpen, and what the hell has happened to BJ Ryan? From unhittable to incapable of getting anyone out. He's gotta be hurt - again.

Matthew Posted July 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 2 of 3 from Boston is not too bad. I must admit, I like a number of the Red Sox players, they seem to approach the game in an "Old School" manner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Wakefield getting chosen is more of a Lifetime Achievement honor. His first time, he's been around forever, and he'll love it. A good guy, who is getting a good reward. I'm really happy for the guy. If men end up getting on base and Mauer (or whoever is catching) can't handle it then they can just bring in another pitcher. They've added one more pitcher to the roster this year. By 2020 they'll probably have 50 man rosters and the managers will still have guilt trips over trying to get everyone into the game.

vajerzy Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 I'm happy for Wakefield as well. I love seeing the 1st year guys. I know the starting lineup is a popularity contest- but I don't believe every team should be represented- nor do I believe that the winner should get home field in the World Series.

Dan Gould Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 It is motherfucking infuriating to come home having won seven straight series, ten games at home against utterly shitty opponents, and they are about to go 1-3 in the first four games. What should be the fucking cherry on top of the first half is turning into a motherfucking nightmare. And if this is what Smoltz is, then you can fucking forget about October.

Chalupa Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 The Phillies delivered a serious smack down to the Reds tonight. 22-1 was the final score. The Fightin's scored 10 runs in the bottom of the 1st. The Reds pitching staff has given up 32 runs in the past two games. Ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papsrus Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 They were kicking around the Nomar reception at Fenway on First Take today. Somewhat predictably, the consensus seemed to be that the fans were thanking him for leaving and taking the Ruth curse with him. ... and that BoSox fans are going soft ... Looked like a nice reception. Makes you wonder how Manny, who actually helped win them a couple of titles, would be received. Fans sure seem to love him everywhere else he goes.

Matthew Posted July 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Who would have ever thought it? A series between Seattle and Texas starting tonight, and the games actually mean something? And it's an old fashioned four games series at that. Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
