Sox vs BoSox Game Thread 5-31-11

Our FO and field managers may be a bit slow at times, but no way Humber performs on this stage against both the Yankees and Red Sox now and dominates them both and goes to the pen. If there was ever anything that was recognized by our FO, it's big game, big stage, big time performances. This start has cemented Humber in the rotation until he pitches his way out of it.

I don't want to hear any "we won the series" crap after the game. Sweep these punks.

 

+ infinity

 

This was the mantra in '05 and it almost cost us. I hate that lackadaisical attitude of because you win the first two games of a series that the last game is moot.

He's been arguably the worst every day CF in baseball. Which is disgusting considering his physical talents.

 

He's grown into my least favorite Sox player. Friggin' clueless at the plate. And like you said...he's basically a 5-Tool player. But it's really time to sit his ass...he's a liability offensively.

Right on the money as usual, Shack!

So Humber's outing turns from good to meh. Sigh...

Statistically, yes, but in reality, he pitched very well and sort of petered out in the end there. This really does very little to dampen my enthusiasm about Phil Humber.

Not at all. He's been a stud out there.

Sucks he doesn't get credit for a quality start, but those things even up at the end of the year. He'll get some cheap ones too.

Hey, if anything, it means we'll have to pay him less :)

Ya know what sucks...normally a game like this Ozzie doesn't even let him go back out there for 8th. He just brings up 2 BP guys. Has fresh arms. But in previous history he'll yank his starter in this exact situation.
