DOMINICANS BEAT PIRATES 11-8
Pedro and Manny and Ortiz, oh my!
Notable performances:
Kapler: 1/4, 3B, 2 R, 3 RBI
Shumpert: 2/4, 3B, 2 R, RBI
Ramirez: 3/3, 2B, R, 3 RBI
Ortiz: 1/3, R
Millar: 2/4, 2 2Bs, 2 RBI
Varitek: 1/2, R
Crespo: 1/2, 2 R
Martinez: 4 IP, 2 H, 3 R, ER, 2 BB, 7 K, 0 HR
Embree: IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 9 BB, K, 0 HR
PEDRO!
Sox ST records:
Overall: 10-6 (.625)
League games: 8-6 (.571)
Mayor's Cup: 2-1
Sox play the Blue Jays tommorrow afternoon.
NIXON AND GARCIAPARRA OUT
Nixon is out until May with a mildly herniated disc in his back. Nomar has mild tendinitis in his right Achilles heel. He may miss Opening Day. Nomar probably won't play in any games for 2 weeks which is dangerously close to the beginning of the year. The Sox will use Kapler and Millar in RF. Manny can also play right as well. Burks will get some playing time at first with Millar platooning in right. Reese will play SS with Mark Bellhorn probably replacing him at second. The modified lineup could look like this:
1. CF Damon
2. 3B Mueller
3. LF/RF/DH Ramirez
4. 1B/DH Ortiz
5. RF/1B Millar
6. RF Kapler or 1B/DH Burks
7. C Varitek
8. 2B Bellhorn
9. SS Reese
It isn't a bad lineup but it lacks strength at the end. I think the Sox should consider giving Crespo a chance at short due to his terriffic Spring.

UMass 5

Maine 1

UMass will play Maine in the Hockey East final tommorow at 7 at the Fleet Center. Then the NCAA tournament begins next Friday. The Frozen four is being held in Boston this year.

TRIBE BEAT SOX 10-9
Timlin and Malaska are the first-teamers who allowed us to lose.
Notable performances:
Damon: 1/4, R
Mueller: 1/3, 2B, R, RBI
Ramirez: 2/4, 2B, R, 2 RBI
Daubach: 1/3, 2B, R
Kapler: 1/4, R
McCarty: 2/5,2 HR, 2 R, 4 RBI
Crespo: 2/3
Lowe: 3.1 IP, 3 H, 2 R, ER, 3 BB
Solid outing by Lowe. Impressive offensive performance by McCarty who seems hell bent to make this team. Crespo continues to do well.
Nomar had an MRI and he checked out fine.
BRUINS LOSE TO WILD
2-0 to Minnesota. Ottawa and Toronto won so we're only a point up on them in the division. Philly lost so we're only a point behind them for 2nd place in the Conference.
TOURNEY ROUNDUP
Manhattan over UFA
TTU over Charlotte

SOX LOSE TO REDS, BEAT INDIANS
Boston 4
Cincinatti 5
Again, our top pitcher did well, there's did not. We scored off a major elaguer, they didn't. Noatable performances:
Damon: 1/3, 2B, RBI
Millar: 2/3, R
Reese: 2/2, 2B, R
Youkilus: 1/2, HR, R, 2 RBI
Arroyo: 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 5 K, 0 HR
Very good outing by Arroyo. Kim is hurt and not faring too well as a starter. Arroyo is impressing. Look for Bronson to be the #5 starter to begin the season.
Cleveland 1
Boston Green Sox 3
Curt looks good in green. I gotta get me a grene jersey. I just wish they had them customizeable. A green St. Patrick's jersey doesn't look good with a name like Martinez or Ortiz on it. I think I'll get a Schilling though. Notable performances:
Ortiz: 2/3, HR, R, RBI
Kapler: 2/3, 2B, R
Schilling: 6 IP, 2 H, R, ER, 0 BB, 2 K, HR
Crespo: 1/1
Ortiz continues to impress and Schilling is looking very good. Crespo is also having a terriffic spring.
The green jerseys are a great idea. Stupid fans like me will buy them to go with the green hats. Revenue, revenue, revenue.
Spring Training Records:
Overall: 9-5 (.643)
Grapefruit League games: 7-5 (.583)
Mayor's Cup: 2-1 (.667)
The Sox play Cleveland today in Winter Haven.
CELTICS BEAT NUGGETS
104-100. Solid win. The Cs are still in 9th behind the Knicks who have a game in hand. The Celtics begin a tough but short trip to Texas on Friday to play Dallas then San Antonio. They have 13 games remaining.

Rhode Isalnd beat BU in the NIT tournament the other day. URI now plays West Virginia. The winner plays Rutgers.
The Bruins host the Minnesota Wild tonight.
Catholic Memorial won their 11th Super 8 Championship. There have only been 14 Super 8 Championships so far. They have a solid program in West Roxbury.
The MLB banned THG. Like it matters. They have no power.

BRUINS WIN OVER LEAFS
2-1. Travis Green scored both goals. HUUUUGE win. Bruins solidify their spot atop the Northeast Division and lead by 3 points. They also reduce their magic number to clinch a playoff spot a mere point.
You'll notice some magic numbers to the left. I've also added quite a few links in the past few days. There's also a counter. Coming soon (maybe): a guestbook and/or a comments page.

GRADY STRIKES BACK
Former manager of the Sox, current bumpkin used the magazine GQ to strike back at the Sox.
Article
Some quotes:
On counting on Pedro Martinez to win Game 7 of the ALCS: "Time after time after time this year, when this kid got into a jam in an inning where it's getting close to the end of his outing, he's the one we left in there to get out of the jam that inning. Then we'd take him out of the game. We'd done it through the year, over and over and over. We got a bad result this time. Most of the time, we got good results. And he'd have gotten it done. What beat him was the bloop hit by Posada."
Grady, his ERA after throwing 100 pitches was disgustingly high. And it got higher every 5 pitches. The strategy that had been the most succesful, particulalry in the playoffs, was to let him throw just over 100 pitches, and put the pen in. Timlin, Williamson, and Embree were nasty in the playoffs.
On "The Curse": "I had players come and tell me that when they're on the field they're thinking about those ghosts. They think about Bill Buckner -- and not wanting to be a Bill Buckner. And if I got a couple of players come tell me that face-to-face, then I know in my heart I got twenty thinking that. It's just a couple of them got the balls enough to say it out loud."
Why don't you call the team a bunch of pussies. Way to elave with class, Grady.
On being fired: "I knew that if we didn't win the World Series this year, somebody was gonna be the goat."
Goat? You blew the biggest game in Red Sox history since 1986!
On the 2004 Red Sox team: "If Boston plays 170 or better games next year, then maybe the result of their decision was the right one (referring to the number of games his team played, regular season and playoffs combined.) But, they better not forget they have to play those games with some human bodies. And they have to play 170 or better. And that's a lot of games."
What the FUCK does this mean? WE KNOW THE SEASON CAN LAST UP TO AND INCLUDING 181 GAMES OR MORE! Are we sure Grady isn't related to Jimy?
On coming in second: Over the past few months, Little has thought a lot about something his dad used to say not just about baseball but about life in general: 'No one ever knows who finished in second place.' "This experience I've had has about halfway proven my dad to be a liar. Sometimes people do remember who comes in second."
Yeah, when you blow it and fail, people remember you.
CHARITY CD
Peter Gammons has come out with a charity CD to benefit the Jimmy Fund. The album features tracks by Pearl Jam and the Allman Brothers Band, as well as Boston's own Dropkick Murphy's.

KNUBLE BEATS SABRES AGAIN
