PrintNew York Yankees at Boston Red Sox, Jun 9, 2009 7:10 PM EDT
The Red Sox enter a three-game series against the Yankees tonight with the fate of the AL East on the line ... OK, maybe it's not that dramatic. But it still could be a pivotal series. A Sox sweep here could set the right tempo for the rest of June. Here's the series preview:

Interesting matchup
These guys were both options for the Sox back in 2005: Burnett a FA, Beckett a trade target. Henry thought that Burnett would be a better choice just because he’d only cost money. But the temporary GM team (that had replaced Epstein) went with the blockbuster for Beckett and Lowell.

Wow
A rare Mike Lowell walk. Burnett is all over the place.

Papi!!!!!!!!!
Dead center! 2-0, good guys!

Bay flies out to deep left on a 3-2 count.
Inning’s over, but the Sox are up 4-0 with Burnett at 63 pitches.
Pedroia makes a ridiculous give but loses the ball on the exchange. Base hit.
First-and-second, 2 outs.

I'm on Gameday now, thanks for keeping me up to speed.
If you want to suggest any other classic movies I should watch this summer, feel free.
No problem.

I've seen them, but can't remember most of either.

4 runs
It should have been more. But it doesn’t look like Burnett will be around for too long tonight.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Burnett starts the third at 62 pitches
That’s even a lot for Dice-K through 2 innings.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
DiceK never had to face the greatest slugger ever hopped up on eye drops.

He ought to be good for four innings

Now if only Harvard had a blog set up…
That's just the reputation
A lot of my friends from Harvard partied a lot more than my friends at the University of Wisconsin, which is famous for its revelry.

I mean, Bush got into Yale, so Ivy League schools must be underestimated when it comes to partiers and overestimated in there academic standards. :)
Legacies tend to be idiots, spoiled, or both
My friends and I let the legacies buy the beer.
Of course
I’ve been 21 or older since I was 17.
Afraid I can't agree with you on that one.
If I had to add another college, I’d add BC. But Wisconsin’s where I go, so they’ve got my loyalty.

Hey fellas, just joined.
Loving the game right now. Facebook status reads:
“Brad is smiling at the shitty performance put on by Burnett of the Yankees. The $161 million dollar pitcher gets pulled before 3 full innings. 5-0 Boston and looking to make it 6 games to null for the season series :))”
I took 5 strikes
But Damon goes down loooking.

by Drugs Delaney on Jun 9, 2009 8:35 PM EDT up reply actions
They could, in theory...
You’d be swinging the bat faster, giving you less time to adjust to the break. Then again, since a curveball is mostly illusion, it could cut down on perceived break, and allow for better contact.
Beckett will only go another two innings max,
but probably more like 1 inning. He’s around 70 pitches.
"It's just a tiny little nick, but it hurts when I get champagne in there."
- Jason Bay, on getting spiked scoring the winning run in ALDS Game Four.
He's good for two more
And that’s fine. The bullpen can go three.
If they must...
They had an off day, but I still would like to keep them rested after DiceK and with Wake and Penny coming up.
2 on for Lowell
Please don’t hit into a DP, Mikey!

Did Gardner take a throwing lesson from Damon?
With a windup like that, you’d better be able to reach home on the fly from the center field wall.
The way he's hit this year, I think it's ok to kill the bat
Put it out of its misery.
Has to make up for all the missed time.
Capitan doesn’t seem to understand that he’s well ahead of the pace for this season, however.
On yahoo refresher… was it a 3-0 pitch? If so… what is he thinking?

Okay, can someone come up with a rational argument against the movie "Fever Pitch"?
B/c my sister just popped it in the DVD (IDK why I have this movie) and is forcing me to watch it. And no, I’m not trying to steal the remote back.
Then nothing will work
That’s an indisputable fact. If it doesn’t work, your sister is completely irrational.

That Jimmy Fallon is an awkward man child who’s sole purpose in life is to laugh through classic SNL skits and make unfunny Twitter jokes on his undeserved late night talk show.
Because if you have seen one romantic comedy you have seen them all.

He'll be better as a utility man once Lowrie's back
He can play some second and third, and has played some outfield.
And the way he consoles Papi...
Ugh
Well, I'll appreciate for you to keep my zingers outta your mouth!
Randy Johnson's first year in Arizona...
…he threw over 270 innings, 12 complete games, had an ERA of 2.40-something, struck out 364 batters, and only won 17 games because he got no run support. He had 11 outings that year in which he went at least 7 innings and gave up two or fewer earned runs but either lost or took a no-decision.
If Strasburg is as good as they say he’s going to be, that’s his future unless he can escape that Gnats.
I doubt it
Theo isn’t going to pay $1 billion a year, but Boras will try to use the threat that they will to get the MFY to offer such a contract on the day the Sox win the World Series.
Lugo should have been included...
…as a player to be named later in the deal that dumped Manny.
should have buried Lugo under Yankee stadium instead of Papi's shirt
Manny who?
by Pesky Fan on Jun 9, 2009 9:11 PM EDT up reply actions 4 recs
Absolutely
My point is that that’s all he’s supposed to be. He’s a utility player who’s been forced into an everyday role by Lowrie’s injury and Lugo’s ineptitude.

Salem
And don’t worry, Fuentes is a big contact guy. Place has an ugly swing, K’s a bunch…Fuentes is a lot closer to Ells with power potential than he is to place with better speed.
Actually, he’s being compared to Ol’ Johnny Damon.
I'll admit, he's doing better.
I’d say what we’ve got in Fuentes is:
High projection – Matt Kemp
Medium projection – Jacoby Ellsbury
Low projection – Emilio Bonifcaio
Sounds about right to me
I like the pick. It seems like the speed and contact are already there. We just have to send this kid some steaks and hope the power emerges, making it a great pick.
Better thing to wish for
Projection-Good ole’ cousin Carlos Beltran
I’d rather he develop into Beltran, more consistant. Plus there’s the genetic factor that makes it mroe likely.

Anyone ever find out what happened to the coolest bullpen tradition ever?
Pirate flag, screwdrivers as drumsticks, code of silence, etc. = awesome
Yeah, they'd sit on the bench in the pen, and tap on the roofing with screwdrivers.
Cameras caught them almost every game of the 07 playoffs.
They called the bullpen, “The Black Pearl”
Some key details:
— Secret handshakes are encouraged
— Seats are assigned
— Mike Timlin is “The Admiral” (of course he is… think anybody’s going to call him on that?)
— Sunflower seed spitting contests are welcome
— Players who are out of line are forced to walk the plank
— The “Manny Delcarmen Band” provides a musical interlude in the fourth inning of every game

77. Boston Red Sox -- Alex Wilson, RHP, Texas A&M
Newest pick
Need to find scouting report, I don’t have insider
First-round potential before he blew out his elbow a couple years ago.
Drafted 10th round last year, opted to play for Texas.

Had a 93-95 MPH fastball that died off as the season progressed, even when moved to the bullpen.
Fantastic control. 105:18 K:BB

Hi MGBB
Cano usually makes last out of every Yankee game I see. I need to find a way to track this…

Shut Out!!
Great win tonight, Ortiz going deep, pitching looked amazing, great night.
MFY shut out for the first time this year
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
6-0 series so far against the Yanks
fuckin n00bz.
Anyone else excited about our #1 draft pick? Carlos Beltrans nephew!

I am too lazy to scroll.
Scrolling is primitive.

Blood related to Carlos Beltran. Compares to Johnny Damon, but they said the same about Ells aswell and I don’t see much of Damon in him aside from the noodle arm.

LETS GO PENSSSSS WEEEEEEEEE
STOOPID RED WINGSZZZ

You just generally hate all teams with the biggest fanbase in their sport?
Or do you have another reason for rooting for the Magic?
Well for one
I live in LA so I am sick of the fucking Laker bandwagoners. You cannot turn a corner without seeing them. In terms of Los Angeles, I rather see the Clippers win than the Lakers. And in Hockey, the Wings have always been like the yankees of Hockey to me and I have never liked them at all. I love the Bruins, but I wanna see the young Penguins win the cup.

Man, FUCK LA.

Yeah dude..
out here everyone and their mother is a Lakers fan. Its ridiculous. Most of them become fans after Kobe puts up 60 points in a game or they are in the playoffs. Its so annoying..
I didn't like the old one very much. I didn't see the ball there very well. - Julio Lugo on the old Yankees Stadium.
Oh.
I don’t really follow a pro-basketball team, but I usually root for former Gators, and there’s a few select guys through out the league I’ll root for – Kobe’s just too damn good for me not to root for him.
You better not root for Joakim
I hate that kid.
All the rest of the former gators suck except Horford.
Who do you guys root for where you’re from? Heat or Magic?
I didn't like the old one very much. I didn't see the ball there very well. - Julio Lugo on the old Yankees Stadium.
It's south Florida.
They root for whoever won last night.
Noah’s funny to watch play – his steal and dunk in the playoffs this year was hilarious because he almost kicked the ball 3 or 4 times while dribbling up court.
And yeah, they suck, but it’s a loyalty thing.
Anyone think the Nats are absolute morons for taking Strasberg?
I will laugh my ass off if he gets the highest paid contract for a rookie or whatever, and turns out to be Mark Prior part deux.
I didn't like the old one very much. I didn't see the ball there very well. - Julio Lugo on the old Yankees Stadium.
Yeah, but if he pans out at 50% of the hype, he's still Beckett-ish.
Pretty good bet, esp. considering his mechanics are WAY better.
Actually
I do think he’ll be pretty awesome. Better than Prior, and Prior was quite good.

AMAZING SAVE!!!

YEAH BABY!!!!

I am about ready to.
I hope the Pens can pull it off this year.. such an amazing team. I wish the Bruins could have been in the finals but the Penguins will suffice.

Josh Beckett is the Greatest Pitcher Alive
What a hero. Seriously. There is not another pitcher on the face of the planet that can pitch a better game than Josh Beckett. After throwing more than SEVEN innings of ONE HIT baseball in which he gave up ZERO RUNS and made EIGHT batters dizzy – he even got run support from DAVID ORTIZ of all people! This guy has a gap in his swing that rivals the one between his teeth, but apparently when facing the Yankees he can still find a way to get it done sans-PEDs…
