Note to Jerry:

Write this lineup down and keep it in your pocket for the next time you give Sheff a rest.

It’s the first one in a week that didn’t cause me to start drinking immidiately.

It’s still sucks, but it’s the best of what we have.

not a terrible lineup

but considering that Schneider has been pretty decent with the bat since coming off the DL, it doesn’t make much sense hitting him 8th.

by JoshNY on Jul 1, 2009 1:59 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yup, that's my only gripe

But I think it was done to not have F! in the 8 hole and give him some pitches to hit. A guy like Gallardo pitching around him at this point to get to the Pitchers spot is probably not going leave him much room for success.

Schneider could bat higher

But he is not that bad at #8, he has better-than-average contact swinging outside the zone.

by Michkin on Jul 1, 2009 2:10 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

We'll score 12 today.

Not during the game, after the game, maybe stewardesses on the flight to Pittsburgh. It’ll make them feel better after the no-hitter.

The 2009 Amazin' Avenue: SCREW K-ROD, SIGN FUENTES! Check it out, K-Rod ERA under 1.00, Fuentes over 5.00. CASTILLO MUST GO! Castillo is hitting .300!! DON'T SIGN SHEFFIELD! Sheffield has been a great signing. OMIR WHO? Omir grand slam! OMIR SUCKS! Omir takes Papelbon deep to win. CASTRO OVER OMIR! Omir drives in every Met run, wins game! EPIC FAIL.

First time I picked them to lose on the swag

But I did it before Wright was in the lineup. I don’t know what that means, but I want them to prove we wrong. LETS GO!!!

No wonder you’re losing. :-)

I’m watching Roddick-Hewitt on ESPN 360. Good match so far. I look forward to Santos pinch hitting vs. Stetters in the 7th or the 8th.

Yes we should be so grateful we’re only out and if we can just play decent ball we;ll have a great chance to turn things around.

The Red Sox followed up a total blown game yesterday, giving up a late 10-1 lead to lose 11-10, by scoring 4 runs in the 9th to tie it 5-5 in Baltimore. Love em or hate em (I love em cause they beat the Yankees), that team is good,.

Our offense

was pretty bad. Struck out 13 or 14 times, Wright 3×. Castillo and Chuuuuuuurch teamed up for the one run on a double and a slow roller up the middle.
Big PELF shut down the Brew Crew for 7 and 2/3 innings with 5 Ks. One balk that wasn’t a balk.
Green came in and saved the day in the 8th before K-Rod made things interesting in the ninth but got out of it and we PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!
