PrintI'm getting a Robb Nen kind of leave-it-all-out-on-the-field-but-lose-anyway-because-the-human-body-has-limits-vibe from Josh Beckett. He could probably use a week (or even a month) off.
This prediction means he'll pitch eight scoreless innings tonight, of course.

Talking 3b
in August and September did not have the chance to watch many Giants games. How was Pab lo Sandoval at 3b? Did anyone bunt on him? Does he have the hands, feet to play there? I know he played there in minors
I’d be happy to try Sandoval at third and Ishikawa at first, but I get the impression that Sabean wants Sandoval starting at first.

Oh, boy. The Rays have a serious case of the yips the last 9 or so innings of this series.
No, my Crazy Crab bobblehead is not for sale.
I’m ready to turn it off. I think I know where this is going, and I don’t like it.

It struck me as mildly funny.

fucking Rays
way to hack at every fucking pitch when being patient has been key to your at-bats all series long. Pathetic.
That's why all the buttons on my shirts are broken. Damn.

Soriano for Zito?
A Chicago reporter speculates about Manny Ramirez with Cubs but says would have to move Soriano’s $106M 6 yr left of his deal.
FWIW, I think Joe Maddon had one huge fuckup from Game 5 that may cost the Rays this series. After the Sox had that big 7th inning that cut the lead from 7-0 to 7-4, he needed to manage his bullpen in the 8th inning like it was a Game 7—they had an off-day coming up, so run right through the bullpen and yank anyone that doesn’t have it that night. When Wheeler walked Bay on four pitches to open the bottom of that 8th inning, Maddon should have pulled him right then and there. Wheeler’s been shaky the whole series, and your job as manager in that situation is to stop the bleeding and avoid the Sox getting the momentum back with a big comeback. He kept him in, Drew went deep, Wheeler kept pitching, the Sox eventually tied the game that inning, and that was that.
I don’t see the Rays winning tomorrow night.

Ladies and gentlemen
This is it. Boston has ruined our lives. Thank you and goodnight.
