    << <i>I wonder if Trot will start any games in Fenway, I just have a feeling that he is going to burn the Sox image Perhaps a late inning homer....something! It would be karmic! >>



    I hope Trot burns the Sox with the superior fielding he demonstrated on a simple bases-loaded single against the NYY

    JD Blew sucks, too bad he's even on the roster. If he hits ten homers in the series, I'll still think he sucks, just for the record.

    The bottom line IMO is that hands down Ellsbury should be starting in front of Blew. But before I continue my campain against him, its a brand new season once again!

    Lets see what we can do and have some fun!


    PULEASE!!!!! LETS KICK SOME A$$ RED SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Nah. Tonight was the perfect night to use him if you're going to use him at all. Up by 7 runs, I would have put him in just to save the other guys for tomorrow night. Still, I'd have another guy warming up just in case he gave up more than four.

    Of course, if I had my way, Gagme wouldn't be on the playoff roster at all.

    all I can say is if the Indians don't keep Manny and Ortiz off the bases this will be a short, short series.......and I'm an Indians fan.

    tough first game for an Indians fan... I was SOO hoping gag-me would give up a Grand salami! oh well!

    Hoping for a split and then back to Cleveland....

    C.C. has been unimpressive in the post-season thus far.

    I was hoping Gagme would give up a slam too -- so Francoma would never use him again and Theo would release him or trade him in the offseason and a slot could be freed up on the WS roster.

    C.C. must be experiencing first-timer jitters. I hope we don't get to see him again this series. image

    Is Grady Little coaching the Sox tonight? WTF was Gagne in there for?

    Well, if anybody is going to get us, I am glad it is Trot.

    Now, after Lester cleans up this toilet, lets score some runs!

    Papi trotting down to 1st base and getting thrown out even after the ball was booted might have cost you guys the game.

    Gagne....that guy make Borowski look like Nolan Ryan.

    The Flood Gates of Sir Gagme

    The turning point of the series. No more Home Field advantage for thr Sox. As a diehard Yankee fan rooting against the archrival Sox is almost as fun as rooting for the Yankees. I would just love to see the Indians win their first World Series since 1948. Rooting for a series of 2 C's (Cleveland and Colorado) Go Tribe!

The 2007 Giants were never perfect nor meant to be. They were fighters, scrappers....now they could be called something else, World Champions."

    awesome comeback tonight, extra inning madness. got the split, which is what the road team is supposed to do.

    Mastny was so clutch in relief, in fact the entire Indians bullpen after the 5th was impressive.

    In talking about this series with co-workers I kept telling them
    1. We were going to get to Schilling
    2. Trot was gonna come up big.

    Going to be a nailbiter of a series. strap in!

    Pretty exciting game although I don't understand why Francona said afterwards that it was the most exciting game he was ever part of. It was? image

    Has Francona learned his lesson YET about Gagme? I doubt it. He should be the last one to use in the bullpen.

    I'd rather bring Dave McCarty out of retirement and the NESN studio than see Gagme ever again even NEAR Fenway or the Red Sox organization.

    You called it when he was used in game 1, Barndog. It's a mystery what's happened to this guy. He should be used for mop up only.

    The crowd was hostile towards Gagne, which I sort of enjoyed.

    He looked OK on the first out, but you could tell when he snapped. His stuff is good, but his head doesn't seem to be. Tito better bury him.

    after the Gagme again episode in game 2, I feel like the Sox are down 2-1 or 2.5 to 1 right now. If Schilling gets another chance, here's betting that he sticks to what the scouts advised.

    Well aren't you the same guy who thought the yankees were going to have the best record in baseball this year? Or that the yankees were going to win it all?

    Excuse us if we don't take your thoughts too seriously on baseball predictions.

    so the Sox will go down 2-1, right? Then Wake gets shelled and the Sox are down 3-1. Beckett in game 5 shuts the Tribe down, then Schilling gets his head out of his ass for game six. So we will see Dice-K again in game seven at Fenway. Ewww.

    Dice-K did not do that bad, really. Not scoring with bases loaded and no outs really hurts.

    Also, if we had Ellsbury instead of JD Blew in RF, 50% chance that ball gets caught. Sit Blew for game four and give the rookie a chance to step up!!

    I have a feeling that Wake goes 4 innings, and leaves hurt, nothing against him, and he is one of my favorite playes on the sox, but I just don't think he is 100%.

    Of course, I could be wrong and he pitches masterfuly lol.
