Win lose or... well, there's really only the two options.

*knocks wood*
The Sox bullpen hasn't blown a lead yet this season.
Conversely, the offense hasn't come back from behind yet this season either.

It occurred to me earlier this week that none of the Sox starters has a no-decision. I wasn't sure so I just checked and it turns out, I was right.

This is not meaningful information in any way.
*knocks wood again*

(I'm sure I've cursed someone out there.)

On a side note, nice to see Wakefield (lowest ERA among starters) getting some run support. Now if the batters could drum up some for Matsuzaka.

Other things that amuse me:

The slumping Ramirez has one fewer RBI than the RED HOT Drew. I know, different expectations. Ramirez also has the third LOWEST slugging percentage on the team, right behind Pedroia and Crisp.

Back-up catcher Mirabelli has one fewer RBI than regular catcher Varitek.

These are all things that will change as the season goes on. But it amuses me none-the-less.

EDIT: Bullpen got their first win today and Manny hit his first HR.

Are you baiting me? The Tigers bullpen coughed up an easy win against the Royals last night, so disappointing.

Like I follow the Tigers. Our ACE coughed up a loss to the Royals. That made me pretty sad.
