GT: 7/21/09 @Rangers
(Sports Network) - Josh Beckett has been very successful in the past when pitching in his home state of Texas. The Boston Red Sox will be counting on another gem out of their ace tonight, when the club tries to halt a three-game losing streak as it takes on the Texas Rangers.
Boston's current skid, its longest since a three-game slide from May 13-15, has dropped the team into a first-place tie with the rival New York Yankees in the American League East race. After dropping a pair of tilts in Toronto over the weekend, the Red Sox were handed a 6-3 setback by the Rangers in Monday's opener of this three-game set.
Texas' win was fueled by a five-run sixth inning in which Michael Young, David Murphy and Jarrod Saltalamacchia all homered off Red Sox starter John Smoltz. Young finished 3-for-4 on the evening, while both Murphy and Hank Blalock collected two hits and drove in a pair of runs.
The Rangers also received a solid performance from starting pitcher Kevin Millwood (9-7) in winning for the second straight time following four consecutive losses. The veteran right-hander gave up two runs on six hits over six innings to improve to 7-1 at home this season.
"It was a good win for us. I'm happy our guys went out and put some runs on the board," Millwood said.
Smoltz (1-3), a former teammate of Millwood's during his long tenure with the Atlanta Braves, was battered for six runs on nine hits over 5 2/3 innings.
The Rangers, who currently sit 2 1/2 games back of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim for first place in the AL West, figure to have a tougher time with Beckett toeing the rubber tonight. The All-Star hurler comes in tied for the AL lead with 11 wins to go along with a 3.35 earned run average, and he went 4-0 with an outstanding 1.63 ERA over his final five first-half starts.
Moreover, Beckett has been dominant in each of his two lifetime visits to Rangers Ballpark. The Spring, Texas native has won both outings and yielded only a single run in 12 innings over that stretch.
In four overall starts against the Rangers, Beckett is 2-1 with a 3.63 ERA.
The hard-throwing righty last pitched on July 12 and fired a three-hit shutout to lead Boston to a 6-0 win over Kansas City at Fenway Park. Beckett struck out seven Royals without a walk and needed just 94 pitches to go the distance.
Texas counters with rookie Tommy Hunter, who hopes to better his lone previous encounter with the Red Sox. In a matchup at Fenway Park last August, the young right-hander was shelled for nine runs on seven hits in only 1 2/3 innings.
Hunter has been very solid in his four starts for the Rangers this year, posting a 2.35 ERA over a combined 23 innings. He's surrendered two or less runs in each of his last three appearances and delivered six shutout innings despite getting a no-decision in his most recent start, which came at Seattle on July 9.
Texas took two of three games from Boston at Fenway Park earlier this season, but the Red Sox have won 16 of the past 22 meetings between the teams. The Red Sox have gone 6-2 at Rangers Ballpark over that span.

Hi all
I came in as Ortiz was picking his nose instead of staying on first – I see we are down 0-2 – overcoming that lead is like ascending Everest with how we are hitting – at some point we gotta get going and hit – this team is puzzling to me

I'm trying to watch this game like we suck.
So I’m thinking more “Hey, Jed hit a double! Good to see him swinging the bat again! He could be a real piece for the future.” instead of “Fuck we’re down 0-2 and can’t score runs in this bandbox?”.
And then I see Jacoby and both versions ask “Who the hell replaced the guy from ’07 with this scrub?”
You see the piece on The Hardball Times about UZR?

And Toronto's keeping Halladay and won the weekend series.
And the O’s had the epic comeback against us. So, basically, we’re the worst team EVAR

Nah, we're hitting a rough spot
And Tampa and MFY are better teams…..for now!

They have a WAY better offense, as does the MFY, and the Rays’ pitching is going to regress to their true talent soon, which would be an improvement for them. Luckily, the MFY have horrid pitching, so we should be fine.

As long as we’d never see any of them, we’d manage between one and three runs in each game. Unless Beer Guy is lefty, in which case we’d get no-hit.

What I'm saying is that he'd hurt us with his contract, and that the Nats are going to ask for a prospect who could end up being worth a lot more.
@bs_uf15bosox9be:OverTheMonster-ALLERGEN WARNING:May contain PB.
Hmm... according to my calculations, using Sky Kalkman's Trade Value Calculator:
Bay’s worth ~$9.9mil in a trade, or a 76-100 overall ranked pitching prospect.

Typical value of hitting prospects, ranked in terms off every teams' prospects:

Top 26-50 hitters $23.4
Top 51-75 hitters $14.2

Sox need a hitter (s)
Sox need another lefty in the pen, not named Lopez
Sox need a utility guy prefer one with speed
Comedy = tragedy + time.
Consider us quick on the rebound.

Multi-million $ salary, happy family, big house in Brookline,
intellectually stimulating job that most Sox fans would give their right arms for… I’m definitely sleeping easier than Theo is!

quasi celebrities are better. Local Boston Quasi Celebs. Wait till you see what I bring.
Once again, more informed.
Damnit Red Sox!
Do you WANT every fan with a half-crazy idea to start posting on message boards about our need for a “big bat”!? Some of us actually like to talk about baseball, not why we should trade Penny, Drew, and Buchholz for A-Gon or V-Mart!
