everyone at or above the Mendoza line. Great.

6 up, 6 down.
but I barely noticed. Because I’m so busy being patient.

i wonder if the yankees or red sox or tigers broadcasters...
talk about how “this is the type of pitcher that causes problems for our team”. i can imagine that they might mention that such-and-such pitcher has a great career record against their team, but it seems pretty weak to categorically determine ‘these pitchers’ own us. some of these guys have never even previously faced the sox. i’m not even sure what’s scarier: that our broadcasters have just decided that the sox should not even be expected to hit soft-tossing breaking ball pitchers or that the sox CANNOT hit the vast majority of these guys.

And an organizational disease. At least we dont have to listen to anyone bow to Johan this year.

the sox just have a built-in excuse for mediocre pitching
‘the sox struggle with these guys who don’t throw too hard and don’t have great stuff and rely on their off-speed pitches to get guys out’

The great Jesse Litsch? The Sox don’t stand a chance against such a quality pitcher.

He’s hit .236/.269/.312 since June of ‘06. He can’t play defense. Anywhere. He’s coming off a broken leg, and is hardly the speedster that he once was. He doesn’t pound the ball into the ground and run fast to first base anymore. There’s no use for this loser.

his defense is atrocious anywhere. oh, but his bat! he’s a leadoff hitter cheat. i’m surprised you didn’t know that. that .269 obp belongs at the top of the lineup.

I don't know what other changes they can make...
They can’t sit carlos for jerry, or JD and Swisher for that matter. The only thing they can do now is make a blockbuster trade for a lead off hitter.

I really have to question Ozzie's sanity here
Putting in Wassermann with the bases loaded 2 out? He’s a contact pitcher. All you need is a strikeout. I’d like to see Thornton or Logan.

So you want Ozzie to bring in two lefthanders
instead of a guy who allowed righties to bat something like .125? Who cares how he gets there? He’s effective.
It’s absolutely the right call

For those counting at home
That’s a leadoff double literally the top of the wall that missed a HR by an inch, maybe two.
5 pitches later the inning is over.
