Good afternoon everyone. I see most of us are back for more fun.

How can you cap off a weekend like this? By breaking out the broom, thats what. No mercy today. We play today, we win today. Dassit.

I'll have caps today via NESN. This is an ESPN2 free zone. No more of them. For those forced to listen to it on ESPN2, I feel sorry for you.

As a 4th outfielder, he's hitting around .280 with about 50 RBIs. He's not the gold glover he was, but he's going to play the corner in Fenway's CF better than anyone else other than Damon.

I said nothing about his offense. I'm very pleased with his showing at the plate. But it isn't that he SHOULDN'T play the OF. He can't. It's painfully awful to watch. And it hurts us...Ortiz does not take 2nd in the 9th last night w/ Abreu in RF.

Not the case, they need to catch a flight to Seattle and finish the road trip strong, Joe isn't conceding anything, he is using the luxury of a huge first 4 games to get in shape for the rest of this trip.

Good point, I wasn't crazy about the line-up either, but it makes sense given the circumstances.

His call of Giambi's HR in the 10th last night was pretty bad too. Honestly, I dont mind him outside of HR situations though

When the ball was hit, I didnt think it was out because it was hit on a line so far, so fast and then Crisp appeared to make the catch on the run only for it to glance off his glove for a homer. So I'll give him a pass.

The Giambi sac fly in the 8th I thought was gone off the bat. I still dont know how the park kept that one in. I think someone played with the wind there. Cant ask John to be perfect all the time, especially there.
