Default Official Game 5 Thread (JoeTall is probably still sleeping)

Pedro vs The Moose

Fenway

Opinions/Thoughts etc get posted here.

Side Note:
Houston is now my second favorite team. I really had no opinion on the series (other then being a closet Roger fan) but I decided to use TheSaltCracka formula for picking my #2 team.

Hottest team + number of miles from my house = My 2nd favorite team.

I am guessing this won't be a pitchers duel. Not sure why, but I think the score will be something like 7-6.

zzzzzzzzz..... to be honest with you, now that I lost the sweep bet I hope it goes 7. That would be an amazing story.

Given the state of the bullpens, it's not a matter of whether Pedro pitches better than Moose (or vice versa), but whether Pedro pitches longer than Moose (or vice versa).

Whoever's arm falls off first loses.

Pedro has to come out and attack the Yankees in this game. They're going to be trying harder than ever to get him out early and they have been successful in the past in doing so, he's got to throw strikes early and often, if he gives up a few homers, no biggie.

On the other side of the coin the offense has to put together good at bat's vs. moose. If they can get HIS pitch count up early and Torre has to bring F. Heredia into this game, big advantage sox.

I like the Sox chances in this game. One game at a time they've got to make this thing happen.

I agree with Aces. Given the state of the Sox bullpen, I kind of like the thought that I read in BP today, that the Sox should consider bringing in Schilling tonight if they need him. It's a must win game, and he's likely to be limited in game 6 anyway. So if you need him for 3 innings tonight, you bring him in, and start Wakefield in game 6. Interesting thought.

I do know that as of 2:00 pm, I probably won't be getting much work done.

Pedro needs to drill Sheff in the ass and get that half crippled, juiced up [censored] off the plate.
