Game 1
Tim Wakefield v. Shaun Marcum
Blue Jays hit .262/.330/.423 career against Wakefield. None of the Red Sox have any meaningful atbats against Marcum, but as a team they've hit him at a .243 /.305/.405 clip over 74 AB.
Game 2
Clay Buchholz v. Jesse Litsch
Jesse Litsch is brutal. Don't let the pretty ERA last year fool you.
Game 3
Josh Beckett v. Roy Halladay
Ooh.

Ouch, 10-2 Jays. I thought Buchholz was good, just little unlucky with Casey's botched DP ball that would've ended the inning (instead, gave the Jays 2 runs) and a few bloopers/Hill's bunt single.
Changeup was filthy as usual and his velocity was better than it was when he came up last year despite it being early in the year. His curve wasn't as nearly good as usual, until the 5th inning anyways. Overall, a pretty good outing.
Unfortunately, we continued to make Jesse Litsch the luckiest man on the face of the Earth and our 5th/6th inning relief of Snyder/Corey/Aardsma/Lopez blows. We need Mike Timlin back.

Snyder was DFA'd so we have that to look forward to.
Amazing that Youkilis can go 194 games without a botched play and Casey plays one game and **** something up.
JD Drew looks good except for that checkswing yesterday.
Where have you gone, David Ortiz?

Nice. I was kind of expecting Aardsma to go as Francona seemed to be a Snyder fan of sorts, but it's pretty obvious Snyder is the one who needed to go. At least Aardsma has the potential to be good, even if he's not good right now.Bleeding Green wrote:Snyder was DFA'd so we have that to look forward to.

Aardsma had 36 strikeouts in 32 innings last year. So he does have potential. He also gave up 39 hits and 24 runs, 23 of them earned. He is only 26 years old.
