its so nice to have a good lead in Sept so you can rest your starters who are not used to pitching this much.

This is definitely one team I would prefer BOS to be losing to in the 4th inning. Ahhh..silver lining

I think Youk at 3b and Dunn at 1b isn't so crazy, and projects better than Lowell/Youk I think.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why is every Sox fan/media muppet ready to get rid of Lowell?

He is consistent at the plate and (this year) solid in the field. By all accounts, he is the ultimate professional. He's a great fit in the five-hole. He even said he prefers the five-hole. In OPS, he's having a better year than Youk (and Manny Ramirez).

This is a career year for Lowell. Let's not worry about 3rd base for at least the next two seasons. We got bigger problems.

Why can't Dice-K find the strike zone? Please don't tell me he's hurt, cause he looks like he is.

hes thrown 1400 innings the last 8 seasons, or ~175 per. thats under what a typicl MLB pitcher would have thrown.

i mean the answer to why hes having problems is clear (6 man rotations in japan + no sunday games = 1 game a week), but lets just make stuff up instead.

the guy needs time off, or at least a lot of rest between starts...somebody in the FO needs to step up and put some input in here.

He has reached his season high in innings for his career as of today, I believe.
