If the rain allows it, this afternoon's game against the Mets will be on MLBTV. John Lackey will make his third start of the spring. His first two starts: 5-3-0-0-1.Jonathan Papelbon (5 games, 5 innings, 0 runs), Hideki Okajima, Ramon Ramirez, Manny Delcarmen, and Daniel Bard (4 innings, 7 K) are scheduled to pitch in relief. All of the non-outfielder starters are in the lineup.
Yesterday, lefty Felix Doubront pitched three innings of one-hit ball against Tampa Bay, extending his spring shutout streak to seven innings. David Ortiz got two hits for the second day in a row and John Lester threw 60 pitches against Houston. But Boston did not score in either of its games, losing 3-0 to the Astros and 7-0 to the Rays.
The source of Jed Lowrie's fatigue? He has mononucleosis. He has missed four games.
Lowie just can't seem to catch a break, can he?

Mets win 4-2, with Ram-Ram getting the L.
ReplyDeleteAnd this was the first Ram-Ram. I've gotta get this down: S is the old, A is the new, so...I'll just remember Soriginal and Anew! No. Hmmm...

(Today's Lackey-Tatis match-up was like some kind of Latin term for breastfeeding.)
