Both teams are sporting some banged-up lineups. Jonathan Van Every is 28 years old, but the Red Sox decided this is better than actually starting Sean Casey at first base. The Red Sox are smarter than the Tigers. -- SC

Let's take two.
And send those Massholes home crying in their Sam Adams.
BTW, there’s a thread up on SOSH wherein a bunch of tough guy New Englanders lament the use of profanity by Orioles fans at OPCY. Apparently we weren’t lubed up in the appropriate position last night as a fan base & they don’t know what to make of it other than to lump us (suddenly) in with Philadelphia fans.
Gee, why do you suppose they call it “Mobtown”, beaneaters? Because it’s Disney on a stick?

Hopefully, the crowd for tonight’s game will be a bit more civilized.I’ll also chip in by saying the O’s fans were atypically fired up and, in some cases, inappropriate last night. There was a couple right behind us that was just being belligerently drunk and annoying, screaming “siddown, fatass!!!” at Papi everytime he made an out. When Manny grounded into the double play they screamed right into my ear and I literally had to turn around and tell them to tone it down, as it’s only May. It seemed like this was happening in every section based on what other Sox fans were telling me.
I think it’s safe to say that all teams have “those” fans. The only thing I hold against this jackass is that he is apparently not aware of the torment that we as O’s fans have been going through for years at the hands of more jackasses in our own ballpark.

I hate to see them in Camden Yards
But hopefully all the dirtbags will have taken a couple days off work, and driven for a dozen hours to see their team get swept by the pathetic Orioles.

Be interesting to see what Boston does in their OF
JD Drew should definitely be out; and Crisp was pulled yesterday after his tummy started to hurt. Moss had an apendectomy.
Obviously Jacoby and Manny will be out there, but who’s going to play RF?

From Boston.com
The Red Sox placed pitcher Clay Buchholz on the 15-day disabled list with a broken fingernail on his right middle finger.The Red Sox called up outfielder Jonathan Van Every from Pawtucket to replace Buchholz on the roster. Van Every was needed because of the wrist injury suffered by right fielder J.D. Drew in Tuesday night’s loss to the Orioles.

Broken nails hurt
A lot.
Plus, a lot of pitchers use the tip of their nails for off-speed stuff, and breaking one would make it very difficult to pitch.

unless you are using to throw your knuckler man up and pitch. Of course, if your broken nail is a result of a steamroller running over your finger I guess you get a pass.

Sorry for the lineup formatting
Still getting used to the new editor, which sucks tremendously, by the way. Or maybe I’m just jealous because I’m not as good as it as SC.
Probably the latter, but it does suck.

Wow, it sounds like fan relations got a little testy at OPACY last night.
Maybe we should have a settling-down kind of promo the next time the Sawx come to town—something like Bobby Knight Behavior Modification Night. You know, a pre-game show with angry fat guys punching people, throwing chairs, baiting officials—but only for their own good, of course. It might make everybody reflect a little more on their behavior.
On the other hand, 1 Dollar Beer Night could make ‘em really reflective.
Anyway, as for tonight (OK, today for you): Let’s get to Lester early, fellas. Daniel, continue the magic.
Go O’s!
p.s. Hey, did Westie finally got out of detention study hall last night? We’ve been short of the Young Punk /Juvenile Delinquent element around here lately.

Casey
I think it’s more to keep Youkilis out of RF. Casey has actually played pretty well this year. Or maybe his niceness and stupid haircut make me think he has.

You think 500 is still automatic in?
I’m not sure I do. Even before the steroids, they were debating whether Palmiero would make it (which was abusrd); and he also had 3K hits and 1500 RBI.

You got to pull him, right?
We should have a rested pen and tomorrow is an off day. No need to send him back out.

OT: A request for Valium
Just found out I have to coach my daughter’s team tonight, ‘cause the head coach can’t make it.
Why in the hell I’m worried about an 11-12 y.o. softball game, I don’t know. But I am. Pass along some interGoogle vailum for me, OK?
Maybe I’ll call for a suicide squeeze, just to honor the O’s.
And yeah, it’s our first of the year, and I told my daughter she’d pitch an inning. God, I hope she gets at least one kid out before I have to pull her…
