So, Injuries a problem?
When you have team with depth, and you have a farm system you can trust, seems to me the injuries, although frustrating, does not put a halt to the season of our beloved sox, especially.
The Yankees are crying "injruies" bad season, not 100%....well I have something to tell you. The Sox I don't think has been 100% all season, look at what we've done. This is why the "rent a team" philosophy does not work anymore. Yankees take note, when you truly have depth, talent and players willing to play for you, you will achieve success.
So bottom line, money doesn't buy everything, smart moves, good depth in the farm club, and tactful audition of the young players througout the season especially helpful.
I know this part is a slight duplicate, Bowden, who never pitched an inning in the Bigs, stepped in and pitched 5 innings, with only a 3.60 ERA, not too bad, that's with the pressure of coming in against Ken Griffey, JR. "MVP" Guillen, and Thome and etc. . PLUS it's having to fill the shoes of Josh Beckett, didn't seem to rattle the kid.
Another Kid Jeff Bailey, our 1B, sure he was only 1 for 4, but that 1 hit was a Jack a Dinger, a Homerun, gotta love that. PLUS, we had Jed Lowrie (wasn't even supposed to be a full time player this year) batting 2nd, after our Rookie Ellsbury (2 oregon kids in a row, gotta love it) NOT to mention Pedroia at cleanup? Yup you heard that right... No Manny, Jason Bay, No JD drew, Mark Kotsay, and the list goes on.... ONE thing to add: Pedroia going 4 for 4 (2 games in a row, and his .327 batting average Leading the AL) I can smell batting title.
This shows the destiny the belief, the wheels in motion that Theo, Tito and co. put in motion, My hat is off to the management, DAMN GOOD JOB! This is what every fan should expect from their team, good solid transactions, depth, desire to win, and trust in the farm system. I'm so proud I can BURST.
I still say September is like the pre playoffs, and a lot of teams' depth out there. . cannot handle and will fold (see Rays for example) so look for us to be 1.5 games up end of season, and set strong for the playoffs (BRING ON THE ANGELS)
Well, That's my Oregon take this week, OREGON DAVE OUT!
