Ram Ram won't pitch Sunday

Ramon Ramirez, who was the losing pitcher on Friday night, did not pitch on Saturday. It was not just a case of rest. Ramirez was unavailable yesterday and will be again today because of an accident at his home.

He said that he banged his pitching hand on a table next to his bed.

Otherwise, Ramirez was upbeat and said he hoped to return to action on Monday.

It appears David Ortiz has settled into the cleanup spot for the Sox. he is back in there today, batting fourth. Terry Francona had said Friday that the move might have had more to do with Felix Hernandez pitching that game. But obviously Bay is in a slump and Ortiz breaks up the log-jam of righties between Youk and Bay.

Good start! Waiting to see if Wake makes the all-star team!!!

Hi all. I get to start the new thread! Great start today. Hope they keep it going. GO SOX.

Got home from the bowling tournament just in time to see Pedey and Papi swat their HR's!!!! Go Sox!!!

You must be good luck!!!!

Wake, Pap & Beckett join Dusty & Pedey!!!

I sure hope so! I hope it rubs off on Lester. GO SOX.

Great news for Wake! It couldn't happen to a nicer guy!

Youk & Beckett & Pap are going also!!

Good Luck to all of our ALL STARS.. The rest of the world knows now what we've known all along..
that they really are ALLSTARS!!!!!
Good job WAKE!!

I wonder how slim the margin was for Julio Lugo going!! lol

I'm chuffed to bits for Wake. What a great reward for a great servant of the Red Sox. And totally deserved on the basis of the form he's been showing this season. Well done, Wake!

It was so close for Lugo Ellen!! LOL!!

Bad break for Lester, he should have been out of the inning............. OK, those red hats and all these stupid uniforms have got to go. The Red Sox are a traditional team with a traditional and very recognizable uniform. The blue cap with the red "B" says it all. I think Lester agrees. Did you see him bang that hat after the end of the inning?

CRAP!!! UGH!! Triple! What is it with all these balls just staying fair lately!!!!!

Oh oh. The worst possible outcome following the uncharacteristic error by Pedey.

Hey Jules, Hey Garry!! Garry, have you noticed that since I was the recipient of a very treasured autograph that Tek has swinging the bat better???
We need some runs now.. once these guys get on the board, its hard to keep them down it seems!

jambo... I will assume that chuffed means "pleased"?? thats a term I have never heard before!! I love so many of the terms and phrases that you use!!

ONG... I may be partial (just a bit) but Sean Casey is one handsome man!!! and his personality makes him even more so!!!

Come on Jon Lester... wedobelieve!!!

WHY DID LESTER NOT CATCH THAT BALL??? did he lose it in the sun?

The Yankees are LOSING!!! We have got to win this one!!!!!

Great hitting by Pedey. We have to have more of that. GO SOX.

Youk couldn't get it done. Quite a few squanders with RISP in this series.

Youk is struggling oki - and we've got a lot of games in a row.
