Mohawk: Saves 1 For 1

Monday, April 24th, 2006

I didn’t hear the song Wild Thing start blasting in the bottom of the 9th inning when Papelbon came in to close the game out, but I’m also glad we didn’t see any of the wildness in his pitching either.

Ok, so by now everyone should know that Papelbon has thrown over 10 scoreless innings straight. […]

Sox Struggle Continues

Saturday, April 22nd, 2006

Last night wasn’t as heartbreaking as it was frustrating. Josh Beckett picked 7 quality innings, and a bizarre start to the 8th inning let the Blue Jays essentially steal enough momentum to flip over the Sox in extra innings.

Today’s game was a bleeder. Dinardo was banged around more than a pee-wee hockey player. As difficult […]

Change Up?

Thursday, April 20th, 2006

Have things changed that much from the past few years? I’m not talking about the roster, or the low run numbers. It’s not the defense either. We’ve seen two games against the Devil Rays and no one, let me say this again, no one has been hit by a pitch yet. We all know the […]

From Patriot Day Heroics TO Rookie Saviors

Tuesday, April 18th, 2006

Not a lot to boast about, just perhaps a couple of really exciting victories for the Red Sox. Yesterday’s Patriot Day come from behind win over the Seattle Mariners was more than just a great cap to a good series from the Sox, it was one of the best games of the year as a […]

1 Up - 1 Down

Saturday, April 15th, 2006

Yesterday’s performance by Schilling was exciting. That it’s. It’s that simple. Yesterday’s game had a positive outcome, today’s game had a very poor outcome.

The bottom line is that the Sox offense is struggling. We’ve come to experience a lot of offense over the past few years and many of us weren’t expecting that kind of […]

What We Learned Today…

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

Boomer was battered. Wily Mo connected, need I say more. A-Gonz performed magic and Coco gave up free agency — a year of it anyway.

The game was fairly disastrous. It was David Wells first start, so I guess one can’t put too much emphasis or speculation into the season based on tonight’s performance. The same […]

Arroyo 2 - Bonds 0

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

Bronson Arroyo goes deep again! And he did it against Glendon Rusch again! I know that if I were a major league pitcher and I threw two homers to the same pitcher, I’d be a bit upset. If BA hit’s another this year maybe he should be checked for HGH.

Must We Take It Like This?

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

Watching the first inning of the Fenway opener was a bit nerve-racking. But after seeing guys like Pedro Martinez struggle in the first innings only to turn out gems by the end of the game made it a little more tolerable to sit through Josh Beckett’s first inning struggles. As already noted everywhere in the […]

Ortiz Gets Extension

Monday, April 10th, 2006

Well, I haven’t gotten all the details. But words out that Ortiz is signed up through 2010 with an option on 2011. Not sure what the money terms are, but glad to hear we have the greatest clutch hitter in history of the Sox signed for years to come.

Oh Oh for Coco?

Monday, April 10th, 2006

Word on the street is that Coco Crisp may have broken his finger and be out up to 4 weeks. There has been no official report yet, but Crisp did sit out Sunday’s game after an awkward slide into 3rd base in Saturday’s game. In the event that Coco goes on the DL, I would […]
