Don't Look Now But Baseball Is On NESN

He look at the Sox Gadget to the right, the Red Sox are 7-5. Here are some Spring Training thoughts as the weather and baseball talk heats up. So far the Sox look good as the pitching has come around after initial rust shaking off and the offense looks good too. Beckett seems to have kept his word by bouncing back, and Buchholz looks determined to prove Bill James wrong in projecting him with a 3.5 ERA. Adrian Gonzalez should start some time soon which will be very exciting to see and hopefully Crawford will appear on TV so we can finally see him play. While some performances might be good, some not so good as Dice-K seems to be back to his subpar form (don’t worry folks he’s just as bad as last year). While it is spring training and way too early to pass judgments (let’s save them for his first start), it isn’t encouraging to see him have an ERA over 11. Anyways those are some notes/thoughts; it’s going to be a tough year but a good year in which I hope the Sox come out on top. With 4 good starters, a stacked bullpen, and A+ lineup, the Sox have a great chance of going all the way, let’s see the season play out and if they can get there.
