THE PEDROPHILE RETURNS TO THE INTERNET, SOX DROP DOUBLE GAMES AGAINST TAMPA BAY DOUBLE A'S
Comcast finally fixed the broad brand routers or some shit in my neighborhood so the Red Sox Revolution will be broadcast over the internet.
Boston RS 5
TB Devil Rays 6 / 10 Innings
STORY
BOX SCORE
Well thank God Kim is the closer cuz that really helped us out tonight. I'm telling you, making Kim your typical closer isn't gonna solve the problems in the bullpen. Here are a few things that might:
1. Trades/Free Agents: Picking up guys like Todd Jones, Armando Benitez, and Tom Gordon would really help alot.
2. Healthy Players: If Fox and Fossum can contribute, that would really help us. Fossum's left-handedness could really come in handy, as could his ability to go long in a game.
3. STEP IT UP: If the guys already in the pen can kick it up a notch, then we'll be in great shape,
4. Make Kim a bullpen utility man: Why make Kim just a closer? Why only use him for save situations in the 9th? He is far and away the best pitcher out there, so why not use him as often as possible? Like tonight, for instance. Why not bring him in to finish up the 7th for Wakefield and close out the game? More on this later in the post.
Tonight's Man of the Game is Manny Ramirez. He had 2 HRs. The first one gave the Sox a 1-0 lead in the 2nd and his second tied the game in the 5th with 2 outs. Unfortunately, his effort was in vain. Yesterday's MOTG is Pedro. He went 7 without giving up an Earned Run and K'ed 7. Here are the MOTG standings:
1. Nomar - 4
2. Millar - 3
3. Nixon - 2
4. Kapler, Mueller, Manny, Pedro, Burkett, Sanchez, Rupe, Lyon, J. Crede (CWS), E. Loiza (CWS), JD Drew (StL), B. Myers (PHI), J. Pierre (FLA) - 1
And now for the not-so coveted Bitch-Goat distribution. Millar and Mirabelli each contributed nothing to the offense so they will get 0.1 each. Lyon and Timlin each pitched shittily so they will each receive 0.4 points. Here are the Bitch-Goat standings:
1. Lyon - 1.0
2. Manny - 0.8
3. Timlin - 0.5
4. Rupe - 0.4
5. Grady, Varitek, Millar - 0.2
8. Walker, Nomar, Mueller, Seanez, Shiell - 0.1
Disclaimer: Keep in mind this is a relatively new thing so the numbers reflect only a short period of Bitch-Goats.
ESPN's Phil Rogers has projected the AL and NL All-Star teams. Jayson Stark, who I can't stand by the by, wrote this on the upcoming All-Star Game and the team selection.
Here's the story about Todd Jones' signing with the Sox.
Remember Y*nkee "prospect" Drew Henson? He was supposed to replace Brosius at third base and continue the "dynasty" for years to come with Jeter, Soriano and Nick Johnson. Well, Jeter is batting around .250, Johnson is sharing time with Giambi, Soriano can't field and Henson is struggling to get by in AAA. This is why people hate the Y*nkees. Henson is making $2 million this year and will be making $12 million more in the next 3 years. No other club in baseball would be as spend-crazy as this. Albert Pujols and Dontrelle Willis are making less than $500K and look at their contributions to their teams!. Anyway, here's a Henson story I found that inspired this rant.
Jays lost, A's won, Y*nks were idle again. Think about it. Had the Sox swept Tampa, which we easily could've done, we'd be 2 Games Behind New York instead of 4. The only way we leave the Bronx in first place Monday night is if we sweep. For some reason, I doubt that will happen.
D-Lowe vs. D-Wells tomorrow afternoon at 4 at Y*nkee Stadium. We need to win 3 to stay alive in the division.
If you're gonna bet any money on European soccer next year, here are my predictions:
1. Chelsea will win the English Premeir League, Arsenal will win the FA Cup
2. Real Madrid will win the Spanish Liga Primera and the UEFA Champions' League over Bayern Munich.
3. Bayern Munich will win the German Bundesliga and the German Cup
4. Germany will win Euro 2004. Goals by Klose and Nueville and a clean sheat from Oliver Kahn will give Der Deutschlanders the win
