MDXS 0 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 David Ortiz is 3 for 4 with a 2b and a hr, 3 rbi, now in the 7th. Sick.Also nice to see Schilling killing it, 7ip, 2 er, 5h 5k 1bb.Lot of positives here. Schilling looked real good. Lowell just hit a home run. Loretta handled the bat well. Crisp is faster than I thought, etc...More importantly, I'm already dominating my fantasy league.I'm liking my Cardinals today. 2 HRs for Pujols, and a Grand Slam for Rolen. This makes me very happy.Absolutely devastating. And tying it into fantasy, I let my main competitor snag Rolen late. I waited just a little too long. And the guy who has Lieber forgot to start him.

mrdannyg 274 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 the red sox will definitely score some runs.i thought late last year pitchers would learn him and he'd slow down. that never happened, so no reason to think this year won't be ridiculous.manny is manny, which means 40/120/5 (hr/rbi/trade rumours)lowell had one off year, but can really produce. loretta hits for a great average. crisp is a great all-around guy. and the rest are no slouches. they've got a lot of question marks at pitcher, but that might mean more high-scoring games and more runs. definitely a good team to have fantasy guys in.and crisp is definitely one of the most undervalued players in most 5x5 drafts. he should be good for 15-20 steals, and his other stats will be great. 200 runs anyone Link to post Share on other sites

KowboyKoop 0 Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Good day for Boston, except for Keith Foulke looked pretty wobbly. Didn't matter today though...but he'll need to be better if Boston is gonna make a serious run in the playoffs. Good everywhere else though...especially Schilling. Looked extremely good. Interesting to see his next start...see if he can bounce back after throwing so many pitches. Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't matter today though...but he'll need to be better if Boston is gonna make a serious run in the playoffs. Good everywhere else though...especially Schilling. Looked extremely good. Interesting to see his next start...see if he can bounce back after throwing so many pitches.Pretty much my thoughts. The 9th would have been even worse if not for a pretty nice catch by Crisp. He had a good spring and while I can't back it up with anything, anecdotally closers don't seem to perform as well in non-closing situations. The Sox can get to the playoffs without him like last year, but a closer is a huge plus for the playoffs.I was not happy to see Schilling come out for the 7th inning. He had already thrown 99 pitches and had a rough 6th inning. I'm hoping the only reason why he was back out there was because the 7-8-9 hitters were coming up. I think next start is when I decide how much I'm willing to give myself over to unbridled optimism. In other news, Bonds crushed Peavy's first pitch for a ground-rule double and I'm pissed because my Yahoo stat tracker won't let me scroll to see half of the stats. Link to post Share on other sites
