6/13 G2: Evening delight

September 13th, 2009 by Evan Brunell

GAME NOTES: Jon Lester takes the mound. Let’s hope he starts off better than the canceled Friday affair, when he got the bases drunk in the first and only had one out before the torrential rain come. He’ll go against ‘Big Game James’ Shields, who is looking to move to .500 on the season, given his 9-10 record.

    Gotta love this team, especially when all cylinders are firing. Buchholz, Lester, Beckett are morphing into Maddox, Smoltz, Glavine right before our eyes.
    If Daisuke comes back as though he can win another 18, and Wake comes back like the All Star he is . . . and there is every reason they will . . . then Sox SP is dynamite for years. RP is already set. Let’s not forget Bowden, Tazawa, Doubrant and young Kelly.
    IMO, all Theo needs to do this offseason is spend the $$ to extend J.Bay, V.Mart, A.Gon, Rocco, and B.Wagner if he comes back from arbitration (he says he will play for less to close).
    Perfect weekend. But am a little concerned Daisuke/Byrd/Beckett vs. Angels. However, this expanded bullpen needs work. Keeping the faith.

    Thank you Jon Lester, Josh Beckett AND Clay Buchholz! Buck, once again battling an opposing team’s ace, and keeping his team in the game. I’m feeling better and better about our postseason rotation.
