Seriously?

This is what it has come to:

CF Crisp
SS Cora
DH Loretta
LF Youks
3B Lowell
RF Hinkse
C Lopez
1B Pena (Carlos)
2B Pedroia

SP Kason Gabbard

The best remedy is to call Ace Tickets and laugh at their September Fenway prices. That's about all we can do at this point.

That's easily the worst lineup I can remember them fielding in, I don't know, 4-5 years. With the Ortiz concerns that's one awful day.

I say play Hinkse as much as possible. It will only help the FO when figuring out his role with the team next year. I also would hope the pitch the youth.

That being said, someone over at SoSH pointed out that if we can somehow gain 3 and a half games in the next 15, we will be 4 back for the Yankees series. Now, I don't think there is much chance of success with this squad, but it would be a great opportunity for the young guys to feel a playoff atmosphere that in late sept.

They may want to try to figure out how to score a run first.
