Sox bats wake up and hang a dozen on the twins.

I am heading East tomorrow. NJ for 4 days then home then 3 in Baltimore. Will be nice to catch some relevant teams! They show the Royals here.

FWIW, I probably wouldn't have said anything about the game if not for Token's posts.

Speaking of which, I am now on board with any reference to the Yankees as having spares, journeymen, bums, etc.

Reid Brignac?

Sigh... Reid Brignac. The guy the Rays let go because he couldn't hit; and the guy who couldn't make it with the Rockies at their launching pad of a park.

Jim johnson has blown 3 straight saves. The guy is obliterating my fantasy team

Showalter seems to melt down when it comes to the yanks. Oh well, great comeback to take the lead.

Most managers meltdown with calls like that.

Still, the pitching has completely gone wheels off. Bad times ahead.

thank god i didn't watch most of the last 2 games

the tuesday game, girardi over thought and brought in nuno in the 10th

Last night, hirok got hit in the calf and the yanks got blown out.

However, David Adams is very good. the guy has 2 home runs in his first week in the league. I'm impressed and wondered why the yankees never gave him a fair shot (just like i wondered with austin jackson, who, despite his strike out numbers, is an excellent lead off man for detroit)

And congrats to kevin gausman for getting called up by the orioles. I've been following him since he got out of high school and pitched at LSU. He's gonna be good if he can stay focused and let the game flow instead

Two doubles for Manny...leading the AL in that category.

He's pretty legit.

Kelly Johnson goes off on the Marlins. Thank Chase Utley for being hurt and forcing me to pick and play Johnson this week.

Aceves pitched a decent game allowing 1 earned over 6. Not bad at all!

Sox retake 1st place!!!
Nelson Mandela

he was aided by 3 double plays and a nice running grab by ellsbury in the 6th with the bases loaded

but yeah all in all not bad at all for a spot start.

and the offense certainly did their part. All the more important with a bad matchup of Lee vs dempster tonight

dempster actually did his job tonight, lee was just better

hirok doing well against the mets, as is matt harvey

Jackie Bradley Jr has been recalled, and Aggie Alex Wilson was sent down..I'm curious as to what their plan is now..maybe victorino is out even longer then originally believed...cliff lee was pretty good tonight...
Nelson Mandela

AG
Everything I've heard/read is that Victorino is on schedule to be healthy and ready to go when his DL stint ends. The team calling up JBJ and sending down Wilson is just to bring back the normal roster balance of pitchers and position players (sox had been carrying 13 pitchers which Farrel prefers not to do)

The need for an extra bat also increases with them playing the next two games with NL rules in philly.

Wilson is out pitching clayton mortensen, but wilson still has options remaining while mortensen would have to pass through waivers to be sent down (i expect them to DFA him at some point in the season and bring Wilson back)
