I'd fly to Boston to see it firsthand.

Also if Cano and Granderson keep hitting and getting on base like they are, the Yankees are going to win 120 games. Once Tex and A-rod gets hot there's really going to be no outs in their entire order. Combine that with their rotation and... jesus.
Okay, maybe not 120... but it's gonna be up there.
Yeah.. I'm sure Granderson was like "FUCK YEAH BANDBOX TIME" when he got traded there. He loves those 'pulled barely homers' after all. I've always liked Granderson. Cano's awesome too.
Also, I hate the Braves line-up. Lately, Chipper's been a sure out along with McLouth and Melky lol. I wish they'd put Prado in the lead off spot.
Also holy shit, Bobby. Start Eric Hinske! Dude's got 5 RBI and he doesn't even start.
This focus on defense is going great for the Sox. Three errors the other day against the Twins. At least one more tonight, although it would be more if they gave errors for outfielders simply missing fly balls by 25 feet.
EDIT: Vote Varitek for DH
Prado is a hitting machine, another 2 hits so far. Braves up 7-0 in the 3rd.
And yes, Hinske needs to be starting.
8-0*
I'd put Hinske in LF honestly, even though Melky's got a couple hits (in the 2nd inning) tonight. Still.. Hinske's been hot.
Also.. isn't Hermeida doing pretty good out there in Boston, Viq?
Fucking typical that Lowe's getting all the run support.
Yeah, Hermida's been fine aside from not being able to track a fly ball. He's been great offensively. I was mostly just being sarcastic because Varitek hit his 3rd HR of the season as I posted. Not bad for a guy with 2 starts on the year.
Yeah.. incoming Braves getting shutout tomorrow night against Ubaldo Jiménez, lol. That's how it usually is; score a ton one day, get shutout the next.
Yeah, I figured you were. I saw Tek's homer on my free viewing of the sports pay-per-view. Brighthouse is giving the first couple weeks free I suppose for baseball season just starting and flipped to it just on time to see him hit it. I have Beckett going tonight in fantasy baseball. Red-Sox need more runs please.
Anyway, my note on Hermeida was I'd rather him DH if anything. Ortiz has been a dumpster fire, and I doubt Veritek hits more than 10-13 homers. At least Hermeida gives some power there.
I'll say it again, just give Roy the Cy Young right now. Hell, give him both.
Man. it sucks. He's just pitching on easy mode.
He's going to throw another CG again too. He's at 79 pitches through 7 innings. Disgusting.
Looks like Cantu's rbi streak's about to end.
Exactly.
Ugly outing for Dave Herndon.
It's not exactly surprising, but at the same time I expected him to at least pitch with a bit more balls.
They were saying on the radio that the field in Philly was practically unplayable in the 9th inning, and that the head groundskeeper couldn't believe the umps insisted on finishing the game. If shitty field conditions would have cost Roy his win I'd have been ready to lynch someone.
