Gameday Thread: Red Sox (71-53) @ O's (60-63)

Boston Red Sox at Baltimore Orioles, Aug 18, 2008 7:05 PM EDT


7:05 / MASN :: 89° :: Wind out to LF - 9 MPH :: Rain - 0%

Hsuvq5py_medium Dkmgdnhj_medium

  Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L
Jon Lester - LH 25 160.2 3.25 1.30 .262 11 50 109 11-4
Jeremy Guthrie - RH 25 170.0 3.18 1.15 .235 18 45 108 10-8

Usually I'd say something about the fact that we've got a hell of a nice pitching matchup on our hands today, with young Jon Lester taking on our ace Jeremy Guthrie, two guys having similar years. But instead I just want to say that it's time to play the role of spoiler.

And I want to send a shout-out to Awesome Mike Awesome, who says Lester is better than Guthrie. I will throw all rationale to the side and just say this: To be the man, by God, you have to beat! the! man!

WOOOOOOO!

Cool dream, Dave-- and you're right, NY and Boston BOTH have Yankee teams, i.e. jerkitudinal.

I’ll letcha be in my dream if I can be in yours! I said that.

Lord, I hope the O's can play spoiler

Now that Olympic swimming is over, I’ll likely tune into a bit of this game.

I had to give pointers to a bunch of massholes up here who were making the trip to Baltimore. Before you ask, I didn’t steer them to Edmondson Village or the likes. I hope they get to see a bunch of losses. I can dream.

Adam Jones NOT out for season?

Schmuck and Roch are both reporting that Jones was playing catch today without a cast or walking boot. Schmuck thinks that Jones is on pace to return for the final two or three weeks of the season.

That would make the annual limp-to-the-finish a lot more watchable.

Actually

I only disputed the notion that Guthrie was “clearly” better than Lester, which was wrong then and wronger now. They could hardly be more equal. Except Lester is much younger and Guthrie has been way way luckier on balls in play.

Luke is going to put his bat in Fletcher's crotch after this at-bat

No matter the result.

Luke should sue him

for sexual harassment, and for the sucking at being an umpire, too.

Luke was our last hope

And we needed a bases-empty 3-run HR out of him.

That fucking sucked.

It hurts more when Guts loses than when it’s Sarfate or someone…tomorrow we better beat the ever-loving piss out of these massholes.

This game is equivalent to a punch in the gut

It knocks the wind out of you and you wonder if you’ll ever be able to breathe again.

At least Huff is still the real deal.

Gotta get up

and punch the motherfucker that hit you square in the fucking jaw.

something like that.

So, who thinks Huff plays first tomorrow, Millar rides the pine, and Lou finds a spot at DH?

So, we gotta hope Good Danny shows up tomorrow

and the umpire behind home isn’t a frigging blind moron who can tell the difference between 3 and 4.

tough loss.

Hitting dries up for Guthrie again. Bullpen looked weak.

Writing is God's way of showing you how sloppy your thinking is.

Bullpen's been ravaged this past week.

No one other than Guthrie went more than 6 in the last week.

Bad karma then

for him to suffer ’cause the bullpen is exhausted.
