By the way, I could totally be waaaay off on all this, but there is one thing we can all predict with certainty right now, hours before the game: Carl Crawford will probably suck.
He'll ground a single through the hole in the right side of the infield.
He'll strike out swinging on at least one "ball four".
Ground out unassisted to the 1B.
Ground out 4-3.
Friggin' Carl Crawford.
Optimist.
Ellsbury!!!
Pedroia is ####### off the charts!!!
Uh, Phil, I don't think you would. Zambrano has fallen off almost as badly as Lackey has. Check out his stats this season.
I believe I called him Mark Grace at the time. I may have to start doing that again.
Yes. Big Z has played a big role in that.
I think you should - it worked last time
Cubs tried to give Z to the yankees it seems as well
I assume its on wankland - i'll have a look now.
I call him Ellsblurry. I have no idea why, but it makes me happy.
It'll be the Angels, out of an obsessive compulsive need to add more centerfielders.
I can't come up with anything better than Navajo Nitro, which sucks.
Alright, bases loaded for Ellsbury. Let's get that first GS now!
Definitely better than I expected. The only thing I didn't like was the usual unwarranted hatred towards JD Drew. Also, he went on about Ellsbury being in a "contract year", but unless I'm mistaken the Red Sox control him through 2013.
Wheeler is a fair bit to give up for 2 months
Wow - that's awesome - I never knew that!!
I dunno, Crawford hasn't sucked yet today.
As far as we know.
Hope so - hopefully not bard and paps in a 9-4 game though
Wow - that's awesome - I never knew that!!
What I take away from this, is that Ervin Santana is a dumbass. You get to pick your own first name, and the best you can come up with is 'Ervin'- Seriously?!
I never really though about how dumb that name is - I'll put money on a relative though
...and he beat the Yankees in the ALDS in 2005 so I have always liked him
Papi decided to make sure they got some more runs.
Enjoy the day game tomorrow - see you for the game on Friday
I guess it's better than walking guys...
You are right about the Bard/Paps part of my prediction. I was thinking that neither pitched last night, so they'd get a little work, but wouldn't make much sense.
Instead, Wheeler will get two innings of work.
The Crawford part, I guess, is not meant to be...but don't worry - he'll do it tomorrow!
5 pitches, 3 outs for Coleman.
@81, it reminds me of Carl Everett. He used to do something similar. I'm guessing it's intentional.
Hey, did you guys notice Pedroia is reaching a point of ridiculousness?
As if that wasn't futile enough, I've also decided to give Tim Wakefield the nickname "Iron Butterfly". Let's see if I can get that to stick.
And no, no more replay.
I don't mind taking Youk out in these situations, nor do I really mind the implications. In years past, he's faded just because he's constantly banged up. So, a few innings here and there are helpful.
