CRISP TENTATIVE RETURN SLATED

Apr. 20, 2006 - 9:10 am et

Coco Crisp is scheduled to have the splint on his injured left finger removed Thursday.

"It’s feeling better. It’s not there. But it’s healing good," Crisp said. "I have a little movement in there. From Day 1, the swelling has gone down. It’s getting closer to normal." Crisp will not join the team on their nine-game road trip, but could potentially return shortly after that.

Terry Francona said Tuesday that he hopes to have Coco Crisp (finger) back when the Red Sox return from their three-city road trip that begins Friday.

''Everybody wants to be out there playing," Crisp said. "I want to get out there as soon as possible and have some fun."

Would certianly be nice to have Crisp back for the short series vs NYY at the end of this road run.

Nice jack by gomes.

Wake's knuckler has flattened out into a meatball. Hopefully tito is smart enough to get some folks up in the pen...

Boston shouldn't have a prob tacking 2-3 more off TB's tired pen in 3 innings.... but if Wake stays in he's likely giving up a couple more next inning.

 

[Capella]

Boston should definitely win this game. Worst pen in the majors.

Sucks for Kaz. Dammit.

Glad Maddon was smart enough to not listen to the kid and pull him. He's one hell of a young pitcher and there's no sense in him getting hurt over this game...

I agree, but sucks knowing the pen is probably going to implode.Gomes' home run went out of fenway and dented a mini-van.

Well, the pitching has to hold up. We'll see. The offense is clearly there.

Nice to see them beat Tavarez around a little.

I f'n hate Tavarez... sadly I enjoyed seeing him get beat around a bit as well.

Nice baserunning there

Ty rolled his ankle on that play... he might be a little twisted as well....

Trot with the chance to pass Jim Rice on franchise grand slam list...

EDIT: and.. no

GG rays. HOpe Kaz is okay

UPDATE:

Couple of the best young arms in the game dueling so far tonight.... Burnett vs Beckett. Great start by both guys... both hitting 96-97 on the gun.

Should be a great game to watch... Burnett just struck out the side in the 2nd after a single by Trot and walking Tek. Beckett with 1 K in the first.

PAPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Burnett tries to blow a fastball by Papi with Loretta on first... bad idea.

2-0 Boston

Burnett with nearly 70 pitches in the first 3 innings.

EDIT:

Burnett out after sub 80 pitches in 4... speculation he's hurt again

EDIT AGAIN:

Damn our Defense is ####### good this year

Aww this is cute. The yankee thread died down after the fell to sub .500 and he thought he'd poke fun at our 3-0 2.54 ERA #2 starter. I'd keep your eyes focused on the homestead kiddo.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

why does francona leave people out there when it's obvious they should be pulled?? we should have won this game.

Was just going to bump this

Papelbon with save #9.. .still perfect at 0.00 ERA. Ties MLB record for saves by a rookie in his first month (MacDougal '03). Still 1-2 more chances to lock it up.

schilling just barely missed going 5-0. Instead he gets the ND. Ortiz and Manny starting to warm up. Coco on the horizon

The new papelbon jersey was a hit at the bar tonigiht

No reason Schilling comes out and pitches the 7th
