Why on EARTH is Crisp still on the batting line up... and for that matter Lugo!, I know we need Lugo for short stop.. but at this point in time, I think we would have been better off with Beckitt batting!

Crisp should be out, Ellsbury should be in!!! CRISP SUUUUCKS!

80's Man - Good series so far for sure! I also am a bit biased to Ellsbury, I saw him play with the Portland Seadogs in the spring and early summer before he was called up!! Seriously though, Crisp needs to go... I was happy that they atleast tried out Kielty for a bit, just watching Drew, Crisp and Lugo bat is too frustrating for me!!

hey lucky. im a cleveland fan..sorry. but you hit that one right on the nose. you are right.. i was wondering myself. i thought for sure crisp would sit out last night. lugo i can see for his defense.. it surprised me. good series huh. . i did not want to go back to boston..i aint talkin smack, its gonna be tough for us...travis hafner is doing worse than crisp. our power hitter has not showed anything...

dear god do i agree. from what i understand thou in saturdays game crisp is out and ellsbury is in for the line up...thank god. lugo made some good plays last night but....

Ellsbury is the man in center, now and the future. Shortstop is a weak point that should be addressed in the off season.

Crisp has not done that great this postseason as far as batting goes...but he has been great in the field. I definitely think that Ellbury is awesome..I hope he does get to play Saturday ..GO SOX!

I really like Coco Crisp but, his bat has totally gone silent and it is pathetic. The poor guy couldnt even get a bunt down last night and usually that is easy for him. I too hope that Ellsbury is in the line up Saturday night. Maybe he can help the offense and keep the Sox in for a game 7! I sure hope so anyway! Go Sox!

i totally agree.
Crisp needs to go.

and I don't know about lugo, he's good at defense, and yeah, i like him. He helped a lot in the season, so we'll wait and see what happens
i mean
we do have the BEST manager in the whole league.
GO SOX

It really doesn't matter. Schilling will be shelled early on Saturday night and you will have to think about getting rid of your second DH, Manny the lazy azz. What a scumbag he is.

Tribe take the series in front of your home crowd tomorrow.

Terry is a retard if he doesn't put Ellsbury in for Crisp and Cora in for Lugo on saturday.

Crisp will probably be traded in the off season to make room for Ellsbury. Unfortunately, Lugo is a better hitting option than Alex Cora is right now so I think we're stuck with him.
I like that INDIAN fans are sticking with their team but don't forget Curt Schilling IS the most winningest pitcher in POST SEASON HISTORY! Carmona, like Sabathia won't be able go long and unless the Boston bats fall asleep I think were all in for a crazy GAME 7!

P.S. hey "D-Cleveland, OH" Many is the BEST HITTER IN POST SEASON history, why is he a scumbag? Because he raised his hands after he hit a history making back-to-back-to-back HR? I'd do it too if I was the FIRST PERSON IN HISTORY TO DO IT! How 'bout that the old hack Kenny Lofton who takes a curtain call after a 2 run homer in the 3rd inning!? What kind of BS is that? Save that for when you tie the game up not before either pitcher could even technically record a win! he's lucky Beckett didn't knock his block off, that disrespectfull little tool. But, of course he wan't moving too fast to get to that mound while running his mouth, giving enough time for the pitchers all the way in THE BULLPEN to hold him back.

SOX in 7!!!

good call. jacoby better replace crisp or drew next year. i havn't been into the whole coco crisp thing since he started with us. yeah, he'll dive for a ball here and there. and sure, he's fast. but speed does nothing if you can't get on freakin base. i don't mind lugo as much, he seems to at least get on base sometimes. and drew, i'll give the benefit of the doubt to, only cause we got mikey out of that deal and he's the man!!! drew better get his act together by next season though, or i'm gonna be hating him. so yeah, crisp does suck, and i hate his stance when he's up at bat...only do weird things if they work for you...THAT AINT WORKIN' COCO!!!

I agree about Coco Crisp...I don't know why we got him...He's not much of a hitter at all...

Ellsbury has played in exactly ZERO games that matter.

Experience is everything in the playoffs.
