I forgot to mention on Friday, I was completely drenched from the rain so when we got inside, I signed up for a credit card just to get a free Red Sox towel.

Of course, I made absolutely sure that it was folded where I couldn't see anything Red Sox.

Didn't take long for me to decide Jason Johnson is trash.

Yeah I know we're rolling, but I'm not sure I agree with the strategy to spot Dontrelle a few runs...

bases loaded, 2 outs...just make a good pitch by accident so I can watch a ballgame tonight.

We've completely crushed the past two ex-red sox pitchers we've faced.

16 runs off Pedro/Sanchez....niiiice.

A crummy job by Francona managing the bullpen today..

Tavarez did a good job getting 3 outs in the 6th inning, but Francona left him in to start the bottom of the 7th and face Miguel Cabrera. By this point in the season, we all know that Tavarez has poor numbers in his 2nd inning of work. I do not understand leaving him in to face the Marlins best hitter when:

a) Delcarmen is sitting in the bullpen
b) Timlin is sitting in the bullpen
c) Lopez is sitting in the bullpen to face whatever lefties are due up.

I didn't like this move as soon as I saw him in to start the inning, and to be honest, the home run by Cabrera was merely a formality at that point.

Yes, Tavarez has sucked horribly in 2006, but it is Francona's job to put these pitchers in a position to succeed. If he can only go for 1 inning with success, then so be it. I have hated Tavarez all season long, but today he did his job and only failed when Francona asked him for too much.

Yea today I actually felt bad for Tavarez. Francona just waits till he does something bad then pulls him all the time. If it wasn't for our offense I think Francona would be criticized more then he is.

Tonight Johnson goes against Corcoran and hopefully he can stop are mini losing streak and we can come back and tie the series tommorow night and get out of Tampa. It seems like every year we have atleast one team either Baltimore or Tampa Bay that gives us trouble every once and awhile.

I'd pay good money to never see Jason Johnson in a Red Sox uniform again. They could run a ******** quadriplegic orangutan to the mound every 5th day and he would be a significant improvement.

Johnson's got N-O-T-H-I-N-G.
