As I told the Fire Brand audience on Friday, my primary concern in the playoffs - assuming we’re lucky enough to make it there, of course - is not the offense, [...]

What a difference a week makes.
Had we entered the break mired in second place, I would have made some statements to the effect that the standings at the All Star [...]
It’s been a bad weak. Until the two Yankee wins, in fact, I was borderline despondent. And why not? A week ago today, Brian Moehler started against Josh Beckett, and we lost that game. Then Shields went out and beat Masterson, which could have been expected. Next Garza beat Wakefield, which was at least understandable. [...]

From the files of questions I meant to answer, but am stupid and forgot to:
Would one expect Masterson’s BABIP to be lower since he’s a sinkerballer? Have you [...]
Yeah, yeah, I missed a week - that’s what happens when you hit Fenway. Anyway, more importantly the first half came to a close. About a week earlier than normal, in fact. The good news is that we ended the first half, as we did last year, in first place. The bad news is [...]
Well, I don’t even know where to start. You’re screwed. You missed 1.) a sweep of Tampa, 2.) a brawl with Tampa, 3.) a brawl between Manny and Youk (not joking), 4.) an injury to Ellsbury, 5.) progress from Schill, 6.) held breath on Papi, 7.) two more good starts from Masterson and so on. [...]

We got swept. By the A’s. It sucked. I don’t know about you, but I liked it better when we were sweeping folks, rather than getting swept.
As if [...]

I haven’t. Well, actually, that’s not entirely true. I’ve been keeping up, I just haven’t been writing here to keep all of you up to date with [...]

So the bullpen’s been, um, run prevention challenged of late: tell me something I don’t know, you’re probably thinking. Well, ok smart guy, how about some numbers (courtesy of Inside [...]

Yes, I’m a couple of days late with this, but did you really want me to post something on Sunday? Trust me, you did not. Besides, I’ve been a little busy preparing for a cross-country move.
Anyway, In Case You Haven’t Been Keeping Up With Current Events, we lost five [...]

We’ve come back in a couple of games. While we’d all prefer to not to have to come back, count me among those that does believe that doing it successfully does confer an intangible confidence to the club. [...]

Called Strike, originally uploaded by sogrady.
As of yesterday, our bullpen was the not-so-proud owner of a collective 5.46 ERA. In 28 IP, we’d struck out 26, which is good, but walked 13, which is not [...]
So I walked two miles through the freezing, blowing snow for a thin meal of gruel to bring you today’s entry. That, or I walked a hundred yards for Eggs Mazatlan.
At least the snow was real. Promise.
Anyway, we’ve got a full slate for this week’s In Case You Haven’t Been Keeping Up With [...]
