Looked Good--For A While!--Peter

Well, the game vs the O's was finally going fine! Manny & JD back-to-backed and JB had the lead and looked like another game in the W column. Looked like! Unfortunately, as Jenn's already detailed, Okajima had another poor outing against the O's. Don't know why he has this O Trouble this year, but the record doesn't lie. It may be a good idea to continue to use him as always with anyone but the O's, and when we're facing the O's (Jenn: you're going to love this) use Timlin as a setup guy for Papelbon. The way Oki's been against the team from Baltimore, Timlin couldn't be much worse and may even hold a lead. I don't like to criticize someone who's been so good for the Sox in most situations, but facts are facts.

Try it--what have you got to lose--beyond what you're already losing.

Other bad news--Celts were moving to a 3-0 lead over the Lakers--and let it get away.
