A Sox win would be nice

Tampa and the MFY are winning.

I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

Evening All

Go Sox!

pfffffft good for MFY & Tampa—the Sox have them where they want them…I think

"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

Good evening

The Sox play more home games than the Rays or MFY. So, in a sense, they do have them where they want them.

The MFY seem to be home every series. I was surprised to see they head to Boston this week

Something remarkable has happened

with Jon Lester. I used to dread his starts. Now he’s arguably our best starter. Beckett’s been bad of late, and every Matsuzaka start is an adventure (lasting 5 innings with 6+ walks, at least two bases loaded jams, and typically two or fewer runs).

by 0157H7 on Jul 21, 2008 10:25 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Said it once, I'll say it again

Lester’s my favorite Sox starter right now.

by soxaholic on Jul 21, 2008 10:29 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Beckett's problem this year has been HR

He has allowed 15 so far this year, compared to 17 all of last year. Otherwise, his numbers are very similar:

BAA – .248 (‘08) .245 (‘07)
K/9 – 8.48 (‘08) 8.70 (‘07)
P/PA – 3.78 (‘08) 3.78 (‘07)
#P/IP – 15.6 (‘08) 15.5 (‘07)

That said, I do look forward to watching Lester. Sometimes you have to take your lumps and let young pitchers develop. I’ve also been very impressed with Wake so far. Aside from Buchholz so far, the starters really haven’t been a problem. While I think Buchholz will be a special pitcher, it probably won’t be this year.

From Sons of Sam Horn

“I have more raw pop from the right side and am more consistent from the left. I’m natural from the right, but of course get more left-handed at-bats. Right now I’m trying as hard as I can to be consistently the same each way. If your swing is the same from each side, you can think the same way up at the plate—you can always be making the same adjustments. The hardest thing about being a switch hitter is keeping both perfect. It takes a lot of swings to get your stroke where you want it to be, and a switch-hitter has to take twice as many to do that.” – Jed Lowrie, 7/25/05

Pedroia really has surprised me this year with his amount of homers

I don’t expect that from Ellsbury, but he should be able to at least get on base on the same rate, or anything around.

Ellsbury was a good minor league hitter

He hit 313 AVG/.389 OBP/.425 SLG in 3 minor league seasons.

by Drugs Delaney on Jul 21, 2008 11:05 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah

The bad thing about Ells is that he doesn’t have a lot of power, not only for homers but for 2Bs as well. Thank god that when he’s on, he can steal bases at will.

I think he’ll be alright. I wouldn’t take him from the line-up, but I don’t think he should lead off for some time.

Lester strands Betancourt.

On NESN they showed Ichiro’s #s with RISP, and they seemed bad – .212 avg. But his OBP is actually really good in those situations, .393. No slugging to speak of with RISP (.242).

This is a really bad theme thats seems to be repeating itself. Mediocre to crappy pitchers all look like Cy Young winners when they pitch against the sox on the road. How many more 1st pitch right across before someone swings at one.

Mariners ball

This M’s line-up is so bad that they need a new name for the style of play. It’s not quite small ball, it’s a little worse. M’s ball is all about not getting the first dude on base, then the second one hit a single just to give the fans some hope, and the third one hits into a DP.

Unless something falls apart for Lester (I hope I am not Jinxing him) It looks like he will go 8 and turn it over to Pap

Strikes

Are a pretty integral part of being a good pitcher. So if he’s throwing more strikes it can be assumed that he has improved overall.

He is throwing harder this year

His stuff is better. His fastball used to always be up in the zone. Now, he changes the hitter’s eye level. His cutter is much better, and he spots his curve well.

he looked at 2 pretty good ones for strikes. He seems to be looking at a lot of strikes and getting behind in the count frequently

Strikes two and three were frickin nasty.

Besides, Tek has always sucked 1) with two strikes, and 2) with the bases loaded. Combine the two, and there’s basically no hope.

1 more out to go

It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.

seriously,

how can seattle have a DH with a .298 slg, that’s disgraceful.

Game.

Nice victory for the Sox. I’m so happy they won. Great performance by Lester (minus the abortive 8th), and Paps. Lowrie solidified his hold on SS.
