My prediction for this series is LLW. I hope I am wrong, but it has been a while since the Halos won a series in Fenway.

With a great bullpen, it’s imperative to score four or 5 runs against Boston’s starters. Can’t expect to score much against the bullpen.
Becket still has a big era (over 5) and is making, I believe, his 4th start.
This road trip should separate the men from the boys.

I wonder if Beckett’s lower back stiffness will come back, or not.

And I’m so bothered that this game is on KCOP – that means I don’t get the Angels feed on Direct TV and I have to settle with watching the Boston feed. UGH! It’s going to be almost unbearable to listen to with the man love they spread around for Ortiz and Ramirez.

88 pitches
5 runs

i think you have to start over every body gets a second guess that replaces their first guess
and those that are not able to change their guesses in time will just have to stick with their original answers.

WTF?!?
I set my DVR this morning to record the game and it said it was on FSN. Great, so now I’m going to miss the first 5 innnings. (Sorry for whining, Santa Barbara).
by Higz on Apr 22, 2008 2:20 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
I did the same thing!!!
The official website says FSN, so someone please let me know if the REV has it wrong or if there was some change posted.
by Wytelitning on Apr 22, 2008 2:33 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Just looked at the schedule magnet
It says KCOP. I really hope it’s changed to FSN though.

Yeah...
And I saw FSN on the official website. Don’t know who to believe.

I am going by the paper pocket schedule
The Angels released this schedule in February, perhaps they changed the game broadcasting affiliate an I should consult the team’s website form now on, damn, that seems so simple in practice…
by Rev Halofan on Apr 22, 2008 2:55 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
My TV (Dish Network) has it scheduled on FSN today.
But it was scheduled and listed as being on KCOP last night, so something changed over night.

i was right in the middle of posting the same thing
sigh….. i’m getting upset a 2 things. well, actually 3.
1) Sosh’s stubborn-ness
2) Garrett protecting Vlad
3) The catching platoon.
i realize that both of our catchers are good, but for the love… pick one and let him take the job. when he slumps or needs a break, THEN put the other guy in. how are they ever going to be able to go a whole year if you keep this stupid platoon??
and how in the hell is Kotchman ever going to be able to hit lefties better if Robb “Effing” Quinlan keeps getting those starts?
sigh…

I agree with point 2...
...I’m not totally sure what you’re trying to say with point 1
As for the last one – If there’s one position I’m less likely to 2nd guess Scoscia on than catcher, I can’t think of it.

Happens all the time. If you pick Vlad and he doesn’t start, too bad. If they change the pitcher, too bad. Other wise it would be too chaotic.
