Gonna be a wet game if they even get it in.

[longgame]

Casas has a rib fracture, could be out for sometime.  I imagine as this board skews the way it does in terms of age that we've all had a rib injury at some time and even a good bruise can hurt for a while, never mind trying to swing a bat too.

[Sea Dog 23]

Geez.  A broken rib is about a 60 day turnaround, isn't it?  They will have to scour the free agents for a 1B I would think.  What they have in the system is not going to cut it.  Kavadis?  Not sure he is a good fielder, tho he can hit it deep at times.

[Schloicka]

Sox lose 4-1. Guess won't win many with 1 run.

Mark, thanks for correcting the start time.  Apparently, I need new glasses.  I was surprised when I turned on the game around 6:35 and it was in the third inning!
