Awesome, thanks. I may be going into work late that day. At least I hope I do. If not that means Harden imploded and was pulled early.

bar opens at 4AM...off to the gym, then the bar.
Sox get some baserunners against blanton but he gets big popups from manny and papi. Manny lookin lean and taking some big cuts. Pedroia opens up the season wtih a hit.... no surprises there.

Manny with a rope down the line with 2 on to tie it.. then scores on Moss's double to put Boston ahead and give Dice a shot at a win.
He's hitting the ball HARD today. Papi still hasn't found his stroke since the knee surgery but I'm pretty confident he'll settle in. Too good of a hitter not to.

That's how he's always thrown. Odd delivery but he's not a power pitcher so it's not a big deal.

Is it ever really a surprise when a major leaguer gets a hit?

Another up and coming product of the Sox Farm system.(#11 Rated Boston prospect according to SoxProspects.com)

He had a solid spring (.308, 2HR, 7 Runs, 7 RBI), but he's only in there today because Drew was a late scratch with lower back tightness.Please tell me more about this guy, I've never even heard of him. Should I pick him up. My outfield sucks.Moss

Naw.. .he won't contribute this year. He's only getting the start because Drew has a dinged up back. From SoxProspects:"Athletic outfielder with a very strong arm. Excellent approach at the plate - good swing with a refined power and on base ability. Hits to all fields. Slightly above average speed for a right fielder. Solid in the field. Tough competitor. Fantastic teammate and individual who takes joy in playing the game. Moss possesses a good mental approach to the game, able to evaluate his mistakes while still not harping on them.

Could be a decent starter on a lower-level MLB squad.. I don't think he's the next Manny Ramirez by any stretch... I'd see him as a potential .275 / 25HR / .825 OPS / 5SB kinda guy in the bigs. Solid role player but nothing spectacular.Please tell me more about this guy, I've never even heard of him. Should I pick him up. My outfield sucks.Moss

Exactly. He's lined up Boras and is shooting for a 6 year deal (lol). Boston has 2 years of 20MM options that I'd be surprised to see lapse if he puts up the kind of year I'm expecting (.310 / 35 / 120)contract year.

Nice game by Manny today.
Matazaka settled down after the first couple of innings. He was definately shaky in the beginning but he finished well.

I still can't believe how ridiculously stupid it is to start the season over seas, then come back and play more Spring Training games, then start the season up again. In my mind, these games don't exist right now.

Almost slipped to me in the 4th round in our draftManny with yet ANOTHER 2 RBI Double 2 for 5 with 2 Doubles, 4RBI, 1 Run in the first game of the season...I've been screaming it all preseason. Manny is going to be a BEAST this year.Boston takes the lead 6-4... Papelbon up in the pen.
. Went 2 picks before me

He settled down but was still getting hit pretty hard and still seemed to struggle to locate some pitches. I have no doubts he'll settle in to be a good SP2 this year but he looked bad today. Hoping it was just jitters and he settles in.
