I had several thoughts as I was watching last night's 3rd shelling in a row of Red Sox pitchers by the Blue Jays.
- The Blue Jays bats are on an offensive tear. Too bad they could only wake up in the month of September. With better pitching they could have taken a few more wins away from the Sox, Yankees & Rays.
- Red Sox fans paid a lot of money to see the subs play last night.
- Baldelli & Gathright are my picks to make the playoff roster as outfielders. Riddick & Anderson just have no bat.
- Lowrie & Kotchman are my picks for infielders. Woodward is the odd man out.
- Varitek will back-up Victor at catching. That means Kottaras & Brown are off the roster.
- Manny Delcarmen is a big question mark. Right now I think he would have a tough time beating out Saito or Ramirez for a playoff spot.
- Nice job pitching the 9th, Dusty Brown.
Tito should put out a better lineup tonight - for at least half a game - since Lester is pitching. It will be interesting to see how Mike Lowell's hip responds to his last cortisone shot.
The Sox are doing what they need to in order to get ready for the playoffs.
