I like it when Kelly isnt hitting leadoff, though I wish Raburn was 8th or 9th. Or that Santiago was playing against Peavy. Its REALLY good to see Avila 5th though.

Avila has struggled as much as the next guy.

Avila has struggled as much as the next guy.

not as much as Young, and still not as much as everyone below him.

Delmon out of the 5 hole....I might cry tears of joy.

But why is he moving Boesch up again, he was starting to heat up at 7-8.

I think the old man just wants to try stuff and hope it works.

 

[spockmaster]

i think for the 5-9 slots he just pins their pictures to his office wall and then decides the lineup by playing blindfolded darts.

 

[hellifino]

20 runs today

 

[Mitchrapp]

With Scherzer pitching I agree.

 

[mjsb2]

Wow, 20:1 K:BB ratio for Max against the Sox this year.

 

[spockmaster]

leadoff walk for ajax.

 

[spockmaster]

aaaand double play for dirks. bleh.

 

[dtroitlionsfan951]

can't win when you start to stress and make stupid decisions like that....miggy never should have been sent..

 

[mjsb2]

Can somebody explain why a hit and run was called when the pitcher is wild?

 

[kalinecountry]

Lamont at it again....sliced to left, unlike last night when Miggy scored from first on the double to center.

 

[spockmaster]

that inning should have been so much more...double play and thrown out at home...ugh. why send cabrera from first?

im not watching, how out was he?

 

[xer0]

stupid. why send cabrera when he doesn't run well?

he was out by a mile

 

[coulomb]

Welp, Don't blame them for sending cabby there. Most likely stranded at 2nd & 3rd if you hold him.

He was about 10 feet from the plate when the catcher caught the ball.

 

[spockmaster]

i just saw the replay...why the fuck did lamont send him??? the relay guy basically already had the ball by the time he rounded third!?!?!?!??!


goddamnit.
