You have a lot of faith riding on Pavano not faking an injury before then.

“I seldom get upset about this sort of thing, and, didn’t see anything for you to apologise over. I might have even said some unkind things on this board once…but, doubtful. I’m a great guy and a friend to all humans….and dogs.

Trolls are neither, if I remember my biology.”

I knew that-You’re memory is outstanding, but I was going to say your spelling sucks, until I realized “apologise” is the UK version and acceptable spelling.

Anyway, always enjoy your comments and Pete has a new post up with tonights lineup.

miggs,
Good post. I think you should repost it on the new thread.

And, oh yeah, Swish put a zero up on the board.

Putting Swish in to pitch an inning when your starting pitcher and the bullpen has not done the job (remember, the Rays had score 15 runs by this point folks) is “making a mockery of the game”? The game had already been a mockery – the Rays had scored 15 runs.

To ease some of your fears….

Check out these Red Sox stats so far this year. You think these guys are getting pulled, sent down, or traded? It may be something to ponder before flying off the handle about a Yankee not performing up to par thus far.

Lowell .154 avg 1 run 4rbi
Pedroia .179 avg 1rbi in 28 ABs
Elsbury .200 avg 0rbi in 25 ABs
Ortiz .208 avg 3rbi 5 total bases (I think he’s done. DONE)
Drew .150 avg 2rbi
Lowrie .058 avg 1 total base ONE!
Sox have the 2nd fewest runs scored in the entire AL and 3rd lowest in all of baseball.

Some pitching gems for you…
Okajima 13.50 era in 3 appearances
Lester 9.00 era in 2 starts

These stats are just to show its been one week of baseball. And if you want to put a lot of stock in that, the Sox are in much worse position than the Yanks.
