BradyFan81 404 Posted July 14, 2012 (edited) Red Sox are about to shift into beast mode. Ellsbury's back, Buchholz is back, Pedroia will be back soon, Middlebrooks is back. Crawford will be back Monday too (not sure if that's a good thing though). Just need Lester and Beckett to get their shit together. Catching the Yankees probably isn't gonna happen but we should get a WC spot easily. Way too much talent on this team.

Sarge+ 3,436 Posted July 17, 2012 Andrew McCutchen now has 48 hits in his last 100 at bats. That’s the highest hit total for any player over a span of 100 at bats since Matt Holliday compiled a 48-for-100 stretch for the A’s and Cardinals in 2009. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge+ 3,436 Posted July 17, 2012 Coming into tonight's game, Mike Trout led the AL in BA (.348), Mark Trumbo in slugging (.625). Trout is 2 for 2. Trumbo has a HR and a 2B. Quite a young combo they have out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted July 18, 2012 I am getting so pissed off... lol The offense, for the most part is doing it's part. We have one of the best and most explosive lineups in the NL... The pitching, while not amazing has been getting better... Yet, we still find ways to lose. We strand SO MANY RUNNERS that it makes me sick. We could and SHOULD be 5 - 0 after the break. Nope... 1 - 4 because we don't take advantage of these GREAT situations we find ourselves in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bay 2,003 Posted July 20, 2012 Brett Gardner will have his elbow surgery next week.. With the production the Yankees have been getting in Left Field between Ibanez and Jones he really won't be missed in that lineup. In the field is where he is missed.
