9/24: Buch-wild

by evan brunell | Sep 24, 2009 | Anthony Lerew, Clay Buchholz, Game Threads, Kansas City Royals

GAME NOTES: Sorry for the late game thread, fellas… but boy, what a job this Clay is doing, eh?

9/23: Beckett + KC lineup = Bloodbath

by evan brunell | Sep 23, 2009 | Game Threads, Josh Beckett, Kansas City Royals, Luke Hochevar

GAME NOTES: Josh Beckett looks to grab his 16th win and continue his exit from the doldrums. Boston will face Luke Hochevar, who recently learned that he was tipping his pitches and thinks it’s part of his struggles since entering the majors. He shut out the...

9/22: Byrd tries to defeat Greinke

by evan brunell | Sep 22, 2009 | Game Threads, Kansas City Royals, Paul Byrd, Zach Grienke

GAME NOTES: The former Royal, Paul Byrd, will take on the likely Cy Young winner. Zach Grienke is basically the only good thing the Royals have going for them at the moment. x

9/21: Timmeh returns

by evan brunell | Sep 21, 2009 | Game Threads, Kansas City Royals, Lenny DiNardo, Tim Wakefield

GAME NOTES: Tim Wakefield returns after having to skip a start due to his constant back pain. He will start only once every 10 days from hereon out. Mike Silver wondered earlier today if this is Wake’s final season. Opposing Wake is Lenny DiNardo, a former Red...

9/20: The Diceman goes up against B-more

by evan brunell | Sep 20, 2009 | Baltimore Orioles, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Game Threads, Jason Berken

GAME NOTES: Daisuke Matsuzaka takes the hill for the second time since his much-anticipated return. While his first start was impressive, it will be all for naught if he morphs back into his former self. Dice-K needs to continue attacking the strike zone if he hopes...

9/19: Lester looks to clip some wings

by evan brunell | Sep 19, 2009 | Baltimore Orioles, David Hernandez, Game Threads, Jon Lester

GAME NOTES: Lester starts on one extra day of rest. Lester is inching up on 200 innings pitched on the year, so I see no reason why they shouldn’t be a little cautious this late in the season. David Hernandez? Fah! Lester eats David Hernandez for...

9/18: A test for Buchholz

by evan brunell | Sep 18, 2009 | Baltimore Orioles, Clay Buchholz, Game Threads, Jeremy Guthrie

GAME NOTES: Clay Buchholz locks horns with the Orioles and Jeremy Guthrie. It seems like Buchholz keeps facing the Orioles. Of course, he has that no-hitter… but the Orioles have also bombed him unrelentingly. Although Buck looks like he can be our No. 3 in the...

9/17: It’s Beckett Time

by evan brunell | Sep 17, 2009 | Ervin Santana, Game Threads, Josh Beckett, Los Angeles Angels

GAME NOTES: Josh Beckett looks like he’s coming out of that funk he was mired in for a couple weeks. He’ll do it against Ervin Santana, who has had a bad year after busting through last year. I’ll be at the game, so let’s hope we see a good...

9/16: The Byrd flies with the Angels

by evan brunell | Sep 16, 2009 | Game Threads, Joe Saunders, Los Angeles Angels, Paul Byrd

GAME NOTES: Paul Byrd makes what could be his final start for the Red Sox, as Tim Wakefield is due back shortly. Byrd has been a nice arm for the Sox so far. Can he shut down that offense?

6/15: ALDS Preview… again?

by evan brunell | Sep 15, 2009 | Daisuke Matsuzaka, Game Threads, John Lackey, Los Angeles Angels

GAME NOTES: The Angels come to town. We’ll probably be facing them in the ALDS again — the Angels could use a strong showing at Fenway Park to give them confidence going into the playoff series. The Angels aren’t the pitching club they used to be,...
