Game Thread: 7/25/08
Sox lineup:
1. Jacoby Ellsbury, LF
2. Dustin Pedroia, 2B
3. David Ortiz, DH
4. Kevin Youkilis, 1B
5. Mike Lowell, 3B
6. J.D. Drew, RF
7. Jed Lowrie, SS
8. Jason Varitek, C
9. Coco Crisp, CF
SP -- Josh Beckett
Papi returns. Manny sits out another game. Ells is still batting leadoff (though he was in the 9-hold before Manny was scratched). Will the Jed-i Master continue to impress? Can the Sox get to Joba early? Let's hope so.

With Molina and Gardner
This should be (more of) a piece of cake for Beckett. I think.
Ortiz...Big Papi...is...in..the...HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
by the way.. first!

Can't believe it
Drew is batting 6th, and Ells is still leading off. Holy motherfucking stupidity, Batman.
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.

Yeah, I just read it
That’s more like it, however 6th is still kind of low for Drew in the order. So I apologize to Francona.

You know
I always hated Batman because the Joker was always a better character. Batman is all gay and stuff, and don’t get me started on Robin. However, Joker always got fucked, and Batman won the hot girl. Never liked it.
Except for the old Batman show. Batman was fat, so you wanted him to kick some ass, Steven Seagal way. I liked him, but only because he was fat.

From Rotoworld
“WPGB’s Rocco DeMaro tells Rotoworld that a deal involving Xavier Nady is imminent.
The Rays, Yankees, Mets and Braves were among the team’s interested in Nady, with Tampa Bay supposedly the strongest suitor. For what it’s worth, Rays shortstop prospect Reid Brignac is not starting for Triple-A Durham tonight. He’s someone the Pirates would likely ask for in a Nady deal.”
Joba has great stuff
Hope he gets traded.

As much as Tek's been looking horrible at the plate
He’s caught 4 no-hitters. He’s a true clubhouse leader. He knows the pitching staff in and out. Give him a multiyear deal. No one’s going to work our staff better than he does now.
Also, no one is hitting opposing staffs so poorly. Besides maybe Jose Vidro.

Rotoworld is saying Jackson
Tabata has regressed somewhat this year, I think.
But then again, he’s 19 years old in AA.
Manny ain't the only bad man.

on Pinstripe Alley still says Tabata. Either way this seems like a pretty even trade. I don’t think Nady will replicate his stats from earlier in the season.

Joba is insane
We’re completely getting shat on right here.
All in all
There were 9 hits, and they were all singles. And if not for the shift on Giambi, none would have scored. Beckett kept us in the game and more. This is on the bats if we can’t regain a lead.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
JOBA HIT YOUK IN THE HELMET.
I guess it was a foul ball
Looked like it him him. Beckett almost ran out of the dugout on that one.
Does shiny new Beckett hit people though?
Assuming he came out again?
He was suspended
The first time it happened.
They won't retaliate tonight
If there’s anything, it’ll be in tomorrow’s game. Warnings have been issued, so people will get tossed right away tonight.

If Oki has turned the corner
and Masterson is for real, and we have two months of Manny and Papi, then yes, this team is the team to beat.
Manny ain't the only bad man.
Papi will hit 10 more home runs at most this year and finish below .265. I don’t see him helping us this season. We’ll have to step it up to beat either Tampa or New York.
Jacoby should try to bunt for a base hit every time.

Does Francona know what a pinch hitter is?????????????
I am really getting disappointed by his managment decisions/style more and more. Anyway, I was very happy to see Oki do well. I hope he can keep it up. To balance that good comment out, I must say that Varitek looks very, very poor offensively when it really counts with only an occasional rally. Is that good ernough??
Losing on the road to GOOD teams is one thing, but also losing as well at home may spell real trouble.
You know
The ump fucked us all over. Strike 3 to Ells was outside, Strike 3 to Drew was sort of outside as well. But strike 3 to Mikey was one of the worst calls I saw in my life. While Beckett had a tight strike zone to work. The HP ump fucked this one up.
Not that we lost because of this. We lost with this shit going on.
