timwakefield 68 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 Last week everybody in Boston was calling for Dice-K's deportation, this week he pitches 7 shutout innings, 1 walk and 1 hit. He retired the last 16 batters he faced. Link to post Share on other sites

No one except Bautista can take a pitch either, which is perfect for Matsuzaka's inability to throw strikes consistently.I like Matsuzaka, but until he makes one more good start, he hasn't done much. I wish I didn't have to say these about my beloved bluebirds. Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 68 Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 Yeah, I didn't really believe in him myself until today. 8 innings, 1 hit. Astonishing and amazing. In his last 2 starts combined he's given up 2 hits and 4 walks and no runs in 15 innings. I think his plan this season was to make every sports writer and radio commentator in Boston look like a fool. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 God Dustin Pedroia is awesome. http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/video/play.js...ent_id=14398317 Link to post Share on other sites
Skeleton Jelly 2 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 So I just looked at the standings for the first time since...um, sometime last season?...and I noticed this:Boston 28 22Texas 26 24 Weird that Hollywood hasn't been around here anymore. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 Yeah we've been winning like motherfuckers after that awful start.We beat Cleveland 14-2 yesterday and beat Detroit 14-1 today. Our pitching has been pretty great since about April 10, Adrian Gonzalez has been almost exactly as good as everybody hoped, Jon Lester is 7-1 with a 3.36, and Josh Beckett is 4-1 with a 1.69. Carl Crawford has struggled like hell but he's 8 for his last 9 with 2 doubles, 2 triples, and a home run. Everything's coming up Milhouse! Link to post Share on other sites
mrdannyg 274 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Except Pedroia hasn't been great (just good). Hope his foot isn't bothering him. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 Except Pedroia hasn't been great (just good). Hope his foot isn't bothering him. I don't think it is. He's been stellar defensively, and I would expect a hurt-foot to slow him down there. But he's been...stellar. I posted some Pedroia defensive highlights in the 'Which fan is best' thread actually.

Fantasy Baseball does strange things to people.This. Last year I had Red Sox pitching and Pedroia in our pool. This year I dropped the pitching but have Adrian Gonzalez and Youkilis to go with Pedey.I am a Jays fan, though I prefer the Red Sox to the Yankees, and Boston is a great city. But yeah, its really just about fantasy baseball. Link to post Share on other sites

They're certainly giving you a good day today (so far they're a combined 4 for 8 with 2 hrs and 5 rbi). Link to post Share on other sites

They're certainly giving you a good day today (so far they're a combined 4 for 8 with 2 hrs and 5 rbi).Solid weekend from my boys. Gonzalez is going nuts of course - should be a top 3 1B in Boston, but he is really taking advantage so far with lots of doubles. Youkilis is walking plenty - striking out too often, but if the rest of the season is like May-June I'll take a rough April. Pedey has normalized his K/BB, so I trust his his power/speed will come through.I have all of these guys signed through 2015, with about half my team's total budget (26-man rosters)....so I have a lot invested : ) Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 They sure did you right again last night, and they're a combined 2 for 3 already tonight with 1 rbi, still first inning . Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Pedroia's up to .280. I feel like he was hitting about .240 a month ago. Now if we can just avoid being swept by the Pirates... Link to post Share on other sites
