Re: 10/1 @ Angels: ALDS Game 1
Best lineup we have right there. Actually, maybe Ellsbury shouldn't be first. But still, good order IMO.

Re: 10/1 @ Angels: ALDS Game 1
Luckily I found a feed online, so I'll be here through the night. And ORS I'm pretty sure the Sox pen has better numbers second half of the season over the Angels, while I don't have the numbers that's one of the things that stuck out in my mind.

That should be a bannable offense.

Re: 10/1 @ Angels: ALDS Game 1
Well you have Masterson, who was filthy in the second half and wasn't even in the bullpen in the first half. Okajima's ERA dropped by over a half a run in the second half. Papelbon's ERA lowered by about a quarter of a run in the second half. Delcarmen had a complete change, with a 1.82 ERA in the 2nd half and a .502 OPS. So yes, the bullpen's big 4 all improved their numbers in the second half (don't have team bullpen 1st/2nd half splits, as ORS said).

According to BR, the Red Sox had a 4.84 ERA in September, and a 3.77 ERA in August. Probably due to epic failures by Chris Smith, Mike Timlin, and the rest of the cannon fodder.

Re: 10/1 @ Angels: ALDS Game 1
Right, none of whom are on the postseason roster. I'd take September team bullpen stats with a grain of salt.

Truth. There's this kid in my math class who literally wears a Sox shirt every day, and even he said he won't watch past the 3rd. Some people need to get their priorities straight.

Wow. What a loser. First of all if you're in college you shouldn't have any problem staying up that late. 2nd, if you even halfway call yourself a fan, you will watch this one out.

I've already abandoned all hope of having a good school day tomorrow. This is where you find out who the true fans are.
