The Twins: the schedule might favor the Sox a little. The Twins have 6
more road games than home - and many of them on west coast trips.
However half their games are against some of the worst teams. The Sox
are split between home and away but play some tougher teams.

How will this all play out ?

By Sept 1st we'll have Lowell, Luigo and Wakefield back - some sooner
than others. And then the rosters open up. Who will be invited up ?
- a catcher, a pinch hitter, a bullpen guy.

to see the teams with the best records in baseball. There must have
been a big bingo tournament going on in the area.

This isn't meant to be any negative comment about Drew but he DOES seem
awfully fragile doesn't he? Fortunately his problems are usually short
term.

Apparently Youk took issue with Amilie saying his error the other day
was a play he "should" have made, Kevin preferring "could" have made.
All is cool though between the two as it lead to a friendly conversation
on defense between the two.
I know I usually do these the morning after but I'm wired tonight in
anticipation of a big appointment in Dartmouth tomorrow, so I figured
I'd get it done tonight and spend the hour or so before I leave reading
and responding to my other posts.

What an entertaining game.

Ladies and gentlemen we have a new ace. Lester is clearly the stopper,
filling the description perfectly by pitching a great game after
probably one of the worst loses of the season. Maybe next year Beckett
returns to his last years form and we can have two regular season aces.

Oh. and I realize I mis-identified the "Jason" inning as the first
earlier.

So, it's still early on but Bay has shown, so far, that "The Boston
Effect" is not in play with him. I'm hoping that he's one of those
guys that is able to crank it up a notch now that every game he plays
matters, unlike with The Bucs. So far, so good!

He's done it all since being here and done it all well. And done it
with hussle and a smile.

:D

having a tough night at 1B.
