    I don't think its going to get postponed. It sounds like its going to storm for a bit then be clear rest of night.

    Look at this lineup.
    You have 7 8 9 hitters batting a combined .200 with a OBPCT of .300. Betts hitting leadoff is not the answer with zero hitting in front of him.
    AB hasn't showed enough to bat 3rd and CYoung should be DFA showing zero bat speed. If I was DD I would have called up Brentz or RCastillo with a DFA or phantom DL stint for Young to get something rolling...

    With XB out, shake it up Dave

    Holt
    Pedroia
    Betts
    HRam
    Brentz
    AB
    Leon
    Marrero
    Bradley

    Castillo will never play for the Red Sox again, and Brentz is a AAAA player.

    I'd call up Brentz and let him swing from his ass. Late blooma....

    Is this the shortest team in MLB?

    Walking guys with a .500 OPS on 4 pitches is always a great idea.

    Style points for that grab by Happ
    In the town where I was born
    Lived a man who sailed to sea
    And he told us of his life
    In the land of submarines
    So we sailed up to the sun
    'Til we found a sea of green
    And we lived beneath the waves
    In our yellow submarine

    Johnson needs a longer look at this level.

    Definitely needs to stay with the team instead of Fister.

    Might be pitching his way out of Boston. I'm sure many teams would like to get him. Just saying.
