Papelbon can throw a strike when necessary. Usually. And he doesn't specialize in straightballs.

I fear the day when bard becomes the closer.

Thankfully the rest of the American League is also treading water.

Fixed. Only 4 AL teams are more than 3 games over .500. Get to .500 quickly and get a quick hot streak and you can leapfrog teams in a hurry.

Oh joy. Buck & McCarver.

I'll say this: I don't think Sabathia meant to do that. Now they need to make him work. Run that pitch count up, or Sabathia will make the bullpen unnecessary.

Back to within a game of .500. Once again, Lester will take the mound. I like the matchup (v Garcia), but we'll see. Series sweeps at Yankee Stadium aren't easy.

Crawford is a bum

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent

early in the season guys at work were pointing out the recent year whan the Yanks started out poorly and came back to win the division and WS. in the context of a long season we may be better off if the sox have to work hard all year and are in a race vs. getting complacent and then trying to turn it on for October (or is it now December?)

I have tickets for tomorrow - odds that game gets played based on the forecast?? And who is scheduled to pitch?

Tuesday night is Britton vs Lackey. Hopefully the game is rained out

Well, the long road is over (for now) and the Sox are back to .500 at 20-20. The amazing thing is the Sox are only a handful of games out of first place.

Uhhh, not back to .500. They've been under since opening day (unless you mean they were at .500 when they were 0-0). And yeah, they're very lucky that Tampa Bay also started out 0-6, and the Yankees have their own set of problems.

Lackey to 15 day DL with right elbow strain

Atchinson up from Pawtucket. No idea on tomorrow's starter since I am stuck watching the Orioles telecast....

And Dice takes one off the ribs on pitch #1. Still in there though

That is terrible.

See you in August.

Edit: No starter has been named yet but it seems like it would be Wakefield.

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent

They fought almost all the way back, and then that first pitch to Lowrie was 4-5 inches outside and was called a strike. It defined the entire at-bat, as Lowrie was defensive throughout. Electronic strike zones, now!
