ALDS: Lowrie On Roster, Baldelli Uncertain

The addition of Jed Lowrie (over Nick Green) to the ALDS roster comes as no surprise, but it was a little strange to hear Gil Velazquez was chosen over Chris Woodward to be on call, if needed.

The Red Sox would love to have Rocco Baldelli available to face lefties Scott Kazmir and Joe Saunders in Games 3 and 4, but his status (left hip flexor) is still up in the air. Rosters are not due until 1 PM on Thursday.

Mike Lowell's sprained right thumb is now fine. "I'm a prime-time lean machine right now. Write that one."
Example
LDS Today:
Rockies / Phillies at 2:30
Twins / Yankees at 6:00
Cardinals / Dodgers at 9:30
The Sporting News asked 34 people in and around baseball for their prediction of the Twins/MFY series. Two of them: Fred Lynn (Yankees in 3) and Ian Kinsler (Twins in 5).

allan said...

maybe they are waiting to rally off fruitbat (/grasping at straws)

Unknown said...

Do these morons not know that it is, in fact, legal for someone OTHER than a Yankee to win an MVP?

Because it doesn't seem like they do.

Amy said...

My cousin called, so I couldn't thread for a bit. Score hasn't changed in a while. That's the good news. At least the Yankees haven't scored more runs.

Amy said...

DP!

andy said...

Hello friends. I have been a lurker. I am in an online MBA program and I have zero time left on the computer for leisure. I still read all your stuff on my phone at work. So the playoffs eh? I am going to be on for every game. Got your jack ready?

Rob said...

WOOOOO. Confirmation! Chip: "Don Orsillo and Buck Martinez will have the Red Sox and Angels game..."

Never thought I'd be this excited to listen to DO.

Amy said...

Harvey refuses to acknowledge how biased these announcers are. So annoying.

allan said...

harvey: "what are you talking about? the yes broadcast team is always like this."

andy said...

I usually just talk to myself when I read the threads on the rss reader on my phone I cant figure out how to add posts like that.

andy said...

Re: Us and the Anglos

"Since 2004, these teams have played 94 postseason innings against one another. The Angels have had the lead for only 71/2 of those innings."

allan said...

tolbert just waitin' for the bus?

Amy said...

Notice he only said who the Yankee pitchers will be.... ARGGHH

allan said...

tbs has got to be bad to draw this amy ire -- with jon miller nowhere in sight!

Amy said...

That's right---make him throw as many pitches as possible.

allan said...

WALK!

what's the fangraphs %?

allan said...

amy - you are posting about mo and jon miller to laura's blog!

tim said...

here it commmmmeeeesssss

Rob said...

You guys couldn't do this shit with less than 2 out?

Amy said...

Actually, I mistakenly commented on WMTC: "At least he doesn't call him the Great Mariano Rivera, like Jon Miller does."

So even when he isn't here, Miller gets me pissed off.

Unknown said...

Why do they wait until NOW to start getting runners on?

allan said...

go o-cab! more hits!!

Amy said...

Yes, I realized it. See below! I also posted an "Oops" to Laura.

Damn brain just can't do two things at a time!

allan said...

they had runners on before -- they'll stranded these shitheads too.

Amy said...

Kevin, they are tiring out his arm.

tim said...

Ugh, sparkling clean.

Unknown said...

Ugh

tim said...

s1c said...

SoSock said...
