Just firing off a quick one here, as I'll be pretty much busy until 3 today...
~ Nice win last night. It was good to see Manny Delcarmen bouncing back from his recent bad outings and coming on so strong like that. I'm a tad nervous about Timlin (after all, he only threw two rehab innings in Pawtucket - and I watched both of them!) - perhaps that wasn't enough.

Dustin Richardson is looking good like whoa. No, I'm serious - have you seen what this kid's been doing down in Portland recently?

Article on Jed, who still hasn't gotten any playing time so far. But I wouldn't be surprised to see him out there in Cleveland tonight. It makes perfect sense not to stick a recent call-up into a high pressure situation like a Sox-Yankees game, after all. The game against Cleveland, though, should just be some damn good baseball.
Speaking of him, I had a pretty good shot taken at me during the
game thread last night - it was pretty funny. In short,
redsox_njdevils linked me to
this. So, uhm...yeah. Later in the evening, as I was getting ready to go to bed, my rational self and irrational self had an argument over this article of clothing:
Irrational Me: Dude, you know you totally want that. It's you.
Rational Me: I know it describes me well, but I don't want to look like a fangirl...
Irrational Me: But you'd look like a smart, geeky fangirl at least, wouldn't you?
Rational Me: GirlSox Nation might think I know too much about
Chris Carter - take that as you will - if I wear that thing. They could try to recruit me!
Irrational Me: But you could chase them away with statistics. Just talk to them about
Sam Fuld for a few minutes -
Rational Me: Look at this, you brought another one in! I'm trying not to think about them right now, and you're not making that any easier -
Irrational Me:
Donny Lucy.Rational Me: Shut up! Let me block them the hell out for a minute! I have homework!
Irrational Me: ...ooh, need a tutor?
Rational Me: STOP IT.
Irrational Me: Okay, fine, I'll stop. But you know your mind is going to wander in the middle of this whole thing and you'll start thinking about Jed, and...
Rational Me: (smiles like a loon)
Irrational Me: See, he renders you unable to properly function!
Rational Me: ...shut up. Let's just go back to work. (is a lovely shade of
cardinal crimson)
I swear, that's really how my mind works. I disturb myself.
Alrighty, off to being all busy and whatnot today! Catch you all later...!
