Red Sox @ Orioles; 4 game set 

Post#1 » by The Rondo Show » Thu Sep 6, 2007 5:44 pm

I want a 4 game sweep, bitches.

Wakefield/Olson. 7:05 PM EST.
Lester/Cabrera. 7:05 PM EST.
Dice-K/Leicester 7:05 PM EST.
Beckett/Guthrie. 1:35 PM EST.

Who is the ass hole who scheduled a Beckett/Guthrie matchup the same time as the Pats/Jets?

I demand that Ellsbury and Pedroia play all 4 games this series as well. They both need to be hitting 1-2, respectively.

Sweep these ****. Olsen, Cabrera and Leicester are abysmal, abysmal pitchers. Drop 30 runs on them before they each leave by the fourth inning. If I see any bunts in any of those games, I'm coming for you, Francona.

Enough of this, "Oh let's just win 2" nonsense. Kill them. End the season now. Then you can rest Pedroia all you want and give Alex Cora many kisses and hugs, Terry.

1 down, 3 to go. Nice outing for Clay in relief; really settled down and was lights out after loading the bases with no outs and finding a way to get out of it. I noticed he threw a lot more sliders than usual.

Ellsbury just keeps hitting, there was really no reason for him not to start that game last night.

I think we should send JD Drew home and tell him not to comeback until he's ready to be the .900 OPS guy we signed instead of this .700 OPS scrub.

Cabrera is a joke. Him picking a fight was a joke. Hernandez getting mad was a joke. THE BALTIMORE ORIOLES ARE A JOKE.

How nice would it have been to see Pedroia hit a homer off Cabrera? Damn.

Jerry Remy was classic going off on Cabrera. I've never heard him like that before; I like it.

Lester was pretty damn filthy tonight. It's very nice to see the jump in velocity over his past couple starts; seems like he is getting completely healthy. He's back at 91-93 consistently with a few 94's and an occasional 95. The command was real good tonight as well, but I don't really expect that to continue.

Oh yeah, and Daniel Cabrera is a huge douchebag.

Easily his best start in the majors from what I can remember. Very encouraging.

But then again, it's the Orioles.

Pedroia :bowdown:
"The guy is an idiot," Pedroia said regarding Cabrera. "I dropped my bat. It kind of freaked me out. I was upset they took him out of the game. He is good to hit. He's 9-15. The guy [stinks]."

He's just getting tired. I'm sure he'll be fine come playoff time, if not we might be in some trouble. Beckett, Schill, and then who knows what you'll get from Lester and Wake.

Just give Matsuzaka some rest and tell Varitek to call for more than the slider and fastball.

Daisuke has like 8 pitches. Use them.

Would be nice for him to have control of any of them. This guy sure is doing a nice choke job down the stretch. He needs to be skipped for his next start.

Maybe if he didn't throw 4 side sessions every offday....
