I am soooooooo glad the Yanks have Ellsbury

Stan from LA : 4/22/2014 8:58 pm : link

And the Sox don't.

What a player!

Farrell abused our future #3

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 8:58 pm : link

not cool. Nice answer for the Yanks, though.

Ramirez pitched in EST recently...

Dunedin81 : 4/22/2014 8:59 pm : link

so probably relatively soon. Burawa is dealing with an oblique issue as well but will probably take awhile.

JACOBY!

Dave in Hoboken : 4/22/2014 8:59 pm : link

(Damn, it appears I'm on delay by a minute or two)

The offense this year

Matt M. : 4/22/2014 9:01 pm : link

is about as balanced as it's been in a decade. Nice split of L, R, and S, regardless of who plays. Nice split of power and OBA. And Girardi is doing a great job resting guys/ keeping the bench fresh. I truly think this will be a special team.

Bryan Mitchell with another solid outing...

Phil - you better be kidding

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:01 pm : link

Lester should sign with the Dodgers. You know he isn't going to resign with the Sox. They don't believe in overpaying for talent and he is going to get paid.

Cap with a Jeterian Blast!

8-2

8-2.

WeatherMan : 4/22/2014 9:03 pm : link

after the back to back home runs that inning was Lucy pulling the football away. Good grief.

They should try to get Mitchell

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:03 pm : link

ready by July or August.

It'll be Lester or

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:04 pm : link

Scherzer or both next offseason.

i'd rather we sign Tanaka Jr. next year

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:06 pm : link

no more 30+ year olds with arms holding out for one last payday.

I wouldn't

MookGiants : 4/22/2014 9:09 pm : link

even consider Lester.

Scherzer I wouldn't want either. 30+ year olds long term deals as pitchers is not smart business.

Nice quick inning for knuckles

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:10 pm : link

settle in young man and get through 7 easy.

What I don't like about the back to backs

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:11 pm : link

was he did not get beat on his best pitch. McCann should have been calling more splits.

Is Maeda

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:12 pm : link

Tanaka junior? I was hearing he wasn't.

I was flipping over to the Ranger game

mfsd : 4/22/2014 9:12 pm : link

but it looked like Tanaka tried to cruise with all fastballs once he got a lead

Hopefully he's learned his lesson that you can't do that against the Sox at Fenway

both Darvish and now Tanaka

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:13 pm : link

throw at least 4-5 pitches almost evenly. It's beautiful to watch. That said, you do need to know what your money pitches are on any given night.

With Ortiz you throw the pitch that reminds him the least of cake.

I think he does what

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:13 pm : link

McCann calls for.

Same goes for McCann of course coming from he NL, he's not used to calling a Fenway game

the second HR looked like a hanging pitch to me whatever the call

Del Shofner : 4/22/2014 9:18 pm : link

was from McCann. But I get the point. That said, it's April and these guys are playing together for the first time at Fenway.

not Maeda

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:21 pm : link

just whomever is closest to fitting the Tanaka profile: mid-twenties, bulldog approach to pitching and ready for the big lights of NYC.

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:23 pm : link

you'd have to invent him then, since Maeda is next up.

doesn't have to be from Japan

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:27 pm : link

another bad fastball high.

Beat again

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:27 pm : link

on not his best two strike pitch.

great split

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:30 pm : link

he sure doesn't overthrow it though.

Some great splitters

mfsd : 4/22/2014 9:30 pm : link

off Gomes right there

That's a strong 7 from Tanaka, and not even to 90 pitches yet

That was the

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:31 pm : link

6th inning.

Yup

mfsd : 4/22/2014 9:31 pm : link

my bad

i'll take your word on the 7 strong

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:32 pm : link

and hope you are right.

terrible game for Solarte at the plate

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:33 pm : link

he needs to turn that frown upside down!

Ichiro is raking

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:34 pm : link

he looks twice as good as last season both at the plate and in the field. I guess old guys play better with rest. Go figure.

Holt is going to play for the Sox for a long time

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:46 pm : link

he looks like a little shitburger. Fits like a glove.

Nice 7 for Tanaka.

hope Teix didn't hurt himself tagging not-Ellsbury

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:48 pm : link

he sure looked afraid when he reached out.

Hit 95 with the 4 seamer

Phil in LA : 4/22/2014 9:49 pm : link

in the 7th. Nice sign.

Beltran goes deep!

Dave in Hoboken : 4/22/2014 9:52 pm : link

9-2.

That was a bomb by

mfsd : 4/22/2014 9:52 pm : link

Beltran!

Save something for tomorrow

Dunedin81 : 4/22/2014 9:52 pm : link

Beltran

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:53 pm : link

man did he crush that one.

9-2

Makes me cry to think what he'd have been with us all these years. How many intelligent sports writers have gone on record as saying he is one of the best talents they've ever seen. How did someone not lock him down (KC, HOU, NYM, STL)?

bats are like knobs

there is always more to come.

more Tanaka-time

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 9:58 pm : link

lets get through here quickly.

Betances cued up for the no leverage innings.

and here comes

MookGiants : 4/22/2014 10:00 pm : link

the guy who can only pitch in a blowout!

well Tanaka is the best 4th starter

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 10:01 pm : link

in baseball.

Betances ready for 1.2 innings.

Tanaka did really well

dpinzow : 4/22/2014 10:01 pm : link

aside from the two solo shots in the 4th from Ortiz and Napoli...gave them almost nothing

2 BBs, 35 Ks in 4 starts (unreal)

how is this guy

WeatherMan : 4/22/2014 10:05 pm : link

the garbage time pitcher in your pen? He's got nasty stuff.

Dellin representing the Parade Ground in Brooklyn

Del Shofner : 4/22/2014 10:05 pm : link

- great to see him here. He grew up a Yankees fan.

Dellin says fuck you Fat Boy

Girardi has a man crush on David Phelps.

Good thing

MookGiants : 4/22/2014 10:06 pm : link

he's showing this stuff in a 7 run game. But don't worry, first sign of trouble tomorrow night and David Phelps will be there to save the day!

Ortiz fouled it off

RasputinPrime : 4/22/2014 10:06 pm : link

his paw. He'll feel that.

Betances K's PEDroia and Shrek.

That hook is nasty.
