Jon Lester throws no-hitter for Red Sox against Royals
![]() BOSTON - Jon Lester can now add pitching a no-hitter to his already amazing list of accomplishments. The 24-year-old lefty, who survived cancer to pitch the World Series clincher for the Boston Red Sox last fall, shut down Kansas City 7-0 Monday night for the first no-hitter in the majors this season. "Really, words can't describe it right now," Lester said. |

Another Red Sox no-hitter, what else is new?
Jokes aside, Jon Lester was excellent tonight. Times like these really make you wonder whether Minnesota made the right Santana deal. |

I was at the game today at Camden Yards and the ballpark was beautiful. I sat in the upper deck on the left side across from 3rd base and the seats only cost $23 dollars!
One thing that caught me by surprise was that there were so many redsox fans. Seriously, it felt like watching them play at fenway park. All you could hear was "let's go redsox" chants and there were far more red shirts there than orange shirts. I know there are a lot of fairweather fans out there but i spoke to a lot of people in my section and the majority of them came out from Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and so forth to see them play. |

It's becoming just as expensive, if not cheaper, to take the plunge and drive to stadiums that are relatively close to Mass. I know my Dad goes to Baltimore all the time.. parks incredible, tickets are cheap, only a couple hour commute. Seems worth it to me.

Could Fenway be Barry’s next home?
The MLB Source | MVN - a Major League Baseball blog » Blog Archive » Could Fenway be Barry’s next home?
![]() On Monday night, shortly after dropping the finale of a four-game series in Baltimore, the Boston Red Sox revealed that David Ortiz will miss at least a month with a torn sheath ligament in his left wrist. While surgery is unlikely, according to manager Terry Francona, the possibility exists that Big Papi will spend the remainder of the 2008 season on the shelf. Ortiz’s ailment creates a gaping hole in Boston’s offense, as it costs the Red Sox not only their number-three hitter, but also the lone left-handed power threat in their lineup. That lineup, now featuring Kevin Youkilis in the three-hole, remains formidable, but the loss of a perennial All-Star certainly won’t be easy to overcome. That, inevitably, leads to the question: what — if anything — will GM Theo Epstein do to fill the void? |

As much as i HATE Barry Bonds .... i wouldn't mind picking him up to be a DH only. But, i'd be concerned about chemistry problems in the clubhouse and the constant media but we'll see.

I think it would be a better option than trading for somebody. However, a trade would have "panic" written all over it and with the way the American League is shaping up thus far, the Red Sox have the luxury to take the "wait and see" approach and go with in-house options such as Chris Carter who replaced Ortiz on the active roster before tonights game.
Ellsbury, Crisp and Drew is probably the best defensive outfield in baseball. I'm not saying the Red Sox are better without Ortiz in the line-up by any means, but I don't think it hurts them as much as say Jason Varitek being out for a month. As far as Bonds goes, I'd think long and hard about betting my life on the Red Sox not signing him. If (and again, I think there is zero chance of it happening) it did happen, I wouldn't be opposed to it because A. the Red Sox wouldn't have to give up anything to get him, B. I think even a guy like Barry could leave his ego at the door realizing this is his last chance to get a ring and most importantly C. he was one of the best hitters in the game as recently as last season in one of the worst line-ups ever put together, you put him in the heart of the Red Sox order hitting in Fenway and (projected over 162 games) he'd come close to putting up the kind of numbers he put up in 2001. |

I really can't see the Sox signing Barry Bonds. If Ortiz is "only" going to be out for 4-6 weeks, the Sox can weather that storm. They have a strong enough lineup to overcome that, plus they have a favorable June schedule.
On another note, Jacoby Ellsbury friggin rules. Man does he wreak havoc! |

FUCK YOU, TAMPA BAY.
Coco Crisp should have charged the mound with a bat and smashed in James Shields' head. Tampa Bay will suck forever. Last edited by I Are Baboon : 06-06-2008 at 05:46 AM. |

Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
