And I'm not even talking about the Red Sox' loss. I mean that sucked and I'm kinda of pissed about it, but mehh it happens. They got to Wang, the offense showed some clout, but the middle relief in the form of Tavarez and Timlin fucked it up and Buchholz didn't exactly have his A-game with him today. I think he left his A-game in his hotel room. So ( Read more... )

Yeah, so today's loss was pretty damn ugly it seems. The bullpen B-Team isn't quite what the 2007 Bullpen B-Team was, it seems. But as everything else in life, there are good things within the realm of ugly. However, unlike what the Grateful Dead likes to say, a touch of grey doesn't really suit this team. So anyways onto some good, bad and ugly.

Hopefully the re-emergence is one night only. Anyways, some good, bad, and ugly because just like Julian Tavarez no matter how ugly something is, there's some good in there.

Good: Tim Wakefield looked fantastic out there. Seriously, what is Wake's ERA with Cash behind the dish? IIRC, he had some really really good games with Cash behind the dish ( Read more... )

Ugh...that loss sucked, but at least the Red Sox put up a fight near the end. Kinda sucks that Papi had to pop out to end it, but that's the way it rolls. I'm annoyed and pissed off but I'm at least feeling a little better. I mean this at least wasn't Friday and the team DID show some goddamn fight at the end. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it ( Read more... )

As annoyed and frustrated as I am about this loss, I'm not really that phased at the same time. I know that sounds like Tim McCarver-speak but I'm not really that phased. Yes they lost and lost big. Yes Dice was shelled. Yes Tavarez wasn't much better. But think of it this way: The O's needed a win. They needed SOMETHING to hang their hat on and ( Read more... )

I'm not as mad as I should be over this game, however I am a little ripshit at Varitek and Ortiz. Their best tonight was an idiot. Then again Timlin just so happened to suck so he can go eff off too. Grrrr. So there's some good, bad and ugly of today's game...today's is another thing. Disappointed? Yes. But hey, it was a pretty sweet comeback. And ( Read more... )

Red Sox lost this game 5-3 which sucks but what are you gonna do? This shit happens and when Dice is pitching, it's not exactly too surprising. Just not the best of times...and you know what? That's fine. It's at 7 games right now and hopefully it won't get any lower than that. Some Good, Bad, and Ugly for this game...

Good: Lowell had a good game ( Read more... )

That game sucked but it just wasn't really their game. You kinda had the feeling even when they were up 1-0. Even if it wasn't their game doesn't mean that it didn't suck cuz it did. Why? Because Dice pitched his ass off and only made one bad pitch. Just one. That's fucking bullshit. The offense stranded a small village, in the words of Don Orsillo ( Read more... )

Okay doing a very quick "Good, Bad, and Ugly" because I don't see anything good coming out of this game. I'm extremely pissed off, but not for the reasons of losing. I have come to peace with that. I'm at peace with a 5 game deficit now. Once it hits a 4 game lead, however, that's when I start to panic. Okay I'm gonna probably just leave it at this ( Read more... )

Before Brandon Moss even stepped to the plate in the 9th, this game was over. I'll put it at that before I go and start up with my good-bad-ugly stuff. Sure it was a questionable call by Tito(I would've rather put in someone else but I think he wanted the lefty in...even though this was Moss' first game) But anyways long before that the umpires ( Read more... )
