Lets not forget Manny is on the bench.

Typical.

Everything good hit foul, anything bad is fair.

Trupiano is killing me during this varitek at bat. His calls made both of Tek's rips sound fair.

Im sorry to bust balls

But I said this a little before the all star break somewhere in this thread I believe or somewhere and remember taking some heat because people thought I was short changing them.

They got out to a fast start and will be taken out in the first round of the playoffs. Possibly even in a sweep if they play the A's.

That was also before the Sox/Sox series in Chicago was played.

If they can't take 3/4 at home against a playoff opponent and then (technically) get swept at their place, it's not going to work out.

WHY IS REMLINGER IN?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I know you love Ortiz and he's a great clutch hitter.... but there are times when he will get out in a big situation.

Plus... Manny could have pinch hit for Olerud there with the bases loaded... then he'd go to left and Millar would play first.

Well we know where Ortiz could go meet a couple Yankees.....random bathroom stalls across America.
