Sox scratch Big Papi


BOSTON—In a late change, the Red Sox just announced David Ortiz has been scratched from the lineup with tightness in his right knee. Big Papi, of course, missed the last two games at the Trop with the same problem last weekend after diving into first base in the series opener.

That leaves the Sox a bit thin, as they didn’t make a move before the game to replace Brandon Moss, who underwent an emergency appendectomy last night.

Here’s the revamped lineup:

Ellsbury LF
Pedroia 2B
Youkilis 1B
Ramirez DH
Lowell 3B
Varitek C
Drew RF
Crisp CF
Lugo SS

The Rays hitting has been pathetic,yes I know they have been facing some good pitching lately, but they lack hitting
in the cluth or when they could break games open. It hurts having to play stiffs like Gross & Haynes. Josh Hamilton was named A.L. player of the month of April, have the Rays ever had a player of the month? I wonder what Friedman thinks now?

How long will we have to watch Maddon get out-managed game after game.  1st inning.  Aki gets a lead off hit.  Make something happen.  Steal.  Hit/run.  Something!  Crawford hits into a force.  Upton walks.  Double steal? NOooooo, not Joe.  Bottom first Francona does a double steal!  Red Sox manufacture a run while making Kaz work.
