Papelbon: "I'll get me coat."

That was beautiful.

here we go again!

Guys I detect a pulse.

I also just want to register my enormous man-crush on Jon Lester.

Guys I detect a pulse.

thank goodness because if the celtics lose another game to orlando i'll jump off that bandwagon and need another boston franchise to root for and it can't be the patriots.

ummm... Bill Hall just pitched the 9th and looked better than any of the other 5 pitchers who took the mound before him.

Dice-BB took notes

hey we're not gonna get swept by the royals!

i am here to say that i was wrong about the beltre signing

i don't think anyone expected him to hit over .280 tbh

DICE OK

buchholz and lester, and pray for a twister

DICE ROLLS

NICE-K

EIGHT IS ENOUGH

Jesus that was ugly

BARD DAZE NIGHT

daniel nava hits grand slam in his first mlb at-bat

yeah, and did you hear the story about his parents?? crazy

Nava admitted to using HGH in the past

Homer-Givin' Help

i know theo/james loves them some midget ass scrapper pedroias but under five foot and 70 pounds as a high school freshman? CMON SON.

I know I'm not the first to say it, but whatever happened to pitching and defense? Our starters suck, our bullpens blow the lead, and we lead the league in runs scored.

starters have been v. good lately haven't they?

buchholz and lester, and pray for a twister

BUCH NO ARGUMENT

CLAY FIRED UP

I know I'm not the first to say it, but whatever happened to pitching and defense? Our starters suck, our bullpens blow the lead, and we lead the league in runs scored.

i think that was mainly an explanation to appease the people who thought that the offense would somehow crater without the TRUE POWER THREAT of jason bay (who currently has 4HR on the season)

also the defense has been quite good according to every defensive metric i can find

mets player in losing power shocka.

but yeah, the offense being good was predicated on ortiz and beltre bouncebacks and everyone else holding steady. luckily, that's exactly what's happened, plus varitek randomly chipping in 7 as a very part-time player.

my doyers got steamrolled so hard against the sox. dodgers are 10-31 or something in interleague games at al parks

Long game in Denver highlighted by Dustin Pedroia..

5-5
3 homers
1 double
1 single
1 walk

DUDE

They seem to be converting injuries into wins.

so, Varitek broke his foot! and no one seems to know how.

lucky for them

who catch now, Fisk?

they called the molina hotline it seems

david ortiz intentionally walked to get to "niuman romero" ;_;

don't know if yall have heard, but red sox tv ratings are down 36% this year. it's a shocking number even to someone who thinks "tv ratings of sports stories" are dumb.

simmons has at it today: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/100729

for counterpoint, "true fan" hardmanning is here: http://sonsofsamhorn.net/topic/58817-red-sox-games-no-longer-must-see-tv/

i assume this revive will just result in typical ilbb snark but what the hell right?

i haven't been watching the games as much lately but it's more me being busier than lack of interest
