I know it's a fake award, but I don't think I've ever felt as strongly for it as I have for Pedroia for Gold Glove.

This is the craziest game in years. Maybe a bit of hyperbole there.

Another strikeout for Drew. 0-5 with 4 K's.

When was Webster's last start? He might need to go Wednesday if he can given this game.
Or even Aceves who was supposed to start tonight... Uggh.

With Ellsbury running, he had a good lead, if I were Victorino I probably would've taken that pitch and let Jacoby move into scoring position.

As much as we all hate Aceves, he's probably better. But I'd probably give Webster the start if Morales has to pitch tonight. The bullpen is absolutely shot now.

Ok. How does a team with a 12 man bull pen have no one to use in the 10th inning. If need be, use Morales and they can call up a triple A starter for wednesday. EDIT:But this will probably be a moot point in ten seconds. Have to send WMB or Iglesias down to do that. Then, we lose them for 10 days. Bring Holt up after that start. I mentioned in the thread yesterday that we'd bring WMB up on Thursday not today. Bailey is going to blow this. So, it won't matter. Meh. I am not certain that Mortensen's roster spot is really 100% secure. He is pretty much the definition of a fungible bullpen asset. If I had my druthers, I would probably rather keep Mortensen, but I feel that Alex Wilson is a better pitcher at this point, and there are other pitchers who are close to his equal in the minors.

Yep, Wilson and even Aceves are better than Mortensen.

Ellsbury is looking like Ricky Henderson this year.

MLB umpires should all be imprisoned.
What a turd.

In what universe is that a strike? Wow.

Man, the Rays get all the borderline strikes, Bailey would have won the game for us if he got those.

Actually, this is why it is really annoying having multiple swingman/long relievers without any options. If Mortensen's role was being filled by a guy with options, he could go down to the minors if the team needed a spot starter or the bullpen needed a fresh arm.

Welcome to the UMP Show!! Not only a bad call but he shows up the player at the same time. I wish MLB had a better system for coming down on umps or at least made it more public.

Uehara really should not be pitching today.

Did one of those idiot ****ing announcers really say that's a strike?
Dear lord. There's a reason ESPN has no credibility left.

Wilson or Aceves replacing Mortensen fixes that somewhat.

Is it possible that Rubby can finish the season as our setup man or closer during the stretch run?

Uehara really should not be pitching today. Thankfully, he only threw 7 pitches, even though he had to warm up when he needs a day completely off.
