Good call Farrell.
Let's walk Lind to get to the red hot Lawrie....

It worked, but still terrible managing.

Nice start by Dempster tonight. With all of the heat he gets, he deserves some kudos.

I would not pinch run for Ortiz here.

Mike Napoli has some of the worst pitch recognition I have ever seen. It doesn't seem to matter what type of pitch or its speed or its location, he just has awful hand-eye coordination.

So there's this guy named Carp who periodically hits the ball, and he plays the same position as Napoli...

Can't get mad at Napoli, just too sad

This is pretty disturbing. Do they get around to Ortiz's place in the order again?

It's not pitch recognition. Most of the pitches he swings at are strikes. His timing is just so off and his swing so long that he misses so many of them.

Is anyone even working with Napoli off the field?

I would have pinch-hit Carp for Napoli last time around. That said, on the bright side, Carp will likely pinch-hit for Holt if Ortiz's spot in the order comes up again.
Also, I know it was ten inches from getting out and Ortiz is old and stuff, but if he had been running hard out of the box, he should have been able to cruise into third with a triple. Instead, a good five seconds of admiring meant that the Red Sox needed to get a hit out of Gomes or Napoli, which obviously didn't happen.

Stephen Drew just got absolutely robbed for the second time by Rajai Davis. Both deep fly balls driven to the opposite field that would have been easy doubles.

He hasn't been plunked yet (though I expected it to happen a while ago), but this time it hurt the team.

We wouldn't have issues with WMB if he just played at the Rogers Centre every game.
