OAKLAND, Calif. -- Manager Bob Melvin recalls when the Athletics had a potent batting order like the one from Boston that keeps beating up on his club.Once again, Oakland didnt have the pitching or the offense to compete with the powerful Red Sox.Teams that take a lot of pitches and make you throw a lot of pitches, its like a boxer, its just body blows and body blows and then they give you a good one, Melvin said. Thats what they do.Rick Porcello didnt allow a baserunner until Jake Smolinskis one-out double in the sixth on the way to his majors-leading 19th victory, and Boston routed the As yet again with an 11-2 victory Saturday night. The ace right-hander also became the first Red Sox pitcher with 19 wins in his first 22 decisions.David Ortiz hit a two-run double to highlight Bostons seven-run third to chants of Pa-pi! Pa-pi! for the retiring slugger in his last visit to Oakland.The early hitting by Boston made for a short day by right-hander Daniel Mengden (1-6), called up from Triple-A Nashville only to allow seven runs and eight hits in just 2 2/3 innings.I was just falling behind a little too much. You never want to give a team like that good counts and places to do damage, he said.Yoan Moncada had a run-scoring double for his first career hit and RBI -- and got the ball as a souvenir. He earned his first start a day after the star Cuban prospect made his major league debut in a 16-2 win.Its a big step getting the first hit, Moncada said.Hanley Ramirez added a home run in the third, his fourth in seven games.Porcello (19-3) gave up four hits and two runs in seven innings, struck out two and didnt walk a batter. Boston improved to 21-7 in Porcellos starts and 13-2 in his last 15. The Red Sox scored 11 or more runs against the As in their fifth straight, a night after matching their season high with 16 runs.Mookie Betts hit a two-run double in the first following Ortizs first double that moved Dustin Pedroia to third. Betts joined Ted Williams as the only Red Sox with at least 30 home runs with 100 or more RBI in a season before turning 24.Ortiz had three more hits and is 5 for 6 with five RBI this series. He moved within one RBI of the AL lead behind Torontos Edwin Encarnacion (108). Ortiz also needs to drive in one more run to tie Dave Winfield for most RBI by a player 40 or older. A 12-time All-Star and Hall of Famer, Winfield drove in 108 runs for Toronto in 1992.CANSECO BOBBLEHEADHowd Jose Canseco like his bobblehead, handed out Saturday?Its pretty good, its pretty accurate. It looks like the pre-Steroid-era bobblehead, though, he said. Its got me kind of skinny. If it would have been the Steroid-era it would have me more beefed up. It looks more like the `86 bobblehead.Of his ceremonial first pitch, Canseco took to Twitter:Went with the knuckle .it danced, he wrote.TRAINERS ROOMAthletics: C Josh Phegley is being shut down for the season because of inflammation in his right knee that landed him in the hospital last weekend. He also dealt with strep throat and manager Bob Melvin said hes unsure whether that could have triggered further trouble with the knee. ... RHP Sonny Gray threw from 105 feet as he tries to work back from a strained right forearm before the end of the season. Until he throws off a mound, its unclear whether he will pitch again in 2016.UP NEXTRed Sox: LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (2-6, 5.35 ERA) has allowed three or fewer runs in seven of his eight outings since the All-Star break and has a 3.22 ERA with 40 strikeouts to 16 walks.Athletics: RHP Kendall Graveman (10-9, 3.96) seeks his first career decision against the Red Sox in his third appearance. After beginning 1-6 over his initial nine starts, Graveman is 9-3 with a 3.36 ERA in his last 17.Air Max 270 Triple Black . But now that hes in the NHL, the Calgary Flames centre showed big improvement in that department by scoring the winner in the eighth round of a 5-4 shootout victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday.

Air Vapormax Plus Homme Pas Cher . On Mar. 16, coming off a "fight of the year" performance at UFC 154 the previous November, St-Pierre faced Nick Diaz at UFC 158 in what would be his eighth defence of the welterweight title. Using his superior athleticism, St-Pierre cruised to a five round, unanimous decision victory setting up a much-anticipated title defence against number one contender Johny Hendricks. Nike Off White The Ten Pas Cher . Aaron Harrison scored a 22 points for Kentucky (6-1), which has won four in a row following a Nov. 12 loss to current No. 1 Michigan State. Julius Randle overcame a scoreless first half and added his sixth double-double in as many games with 14 points and 10 rebounds.Tuesdays slate is interesting in that a lot of the most usable pitchers are squaring off against one another which could make wrangling the ever-elusive win more difficult. Offensively, we have a game in Coors with two pitchers who arent shy about allowing runs.PitchingEliteThe only pitcher with a better second half ERA than Jon Lester (1.47) is his teammate Kyle Hendricks (1.46). Lesters last six starts are especially impressive: 0.63 ERA, 0.77 WHIP, 40 strikeouts, and a 4.4 K:BB ratio in 42.7 innings (5-0 record, too). He hasnt faced the Reds since June, but they havent been a problem for him this year with Game Scores of 72, 66, and 53. In his two seasons with the Cubs, he has a 3.02 ERA and 0.86 WHIP against Cincy in 47.7 innings.Jose Fernandez facing Tanner Roark is our first head-to-head of guys where you could pick either side, though the strikeout advantage for Fernandez certainly makes him more desirable (further evidenced by his elite Game Score projection). Fernandez has fanned fewer than six batters just four times this year and two of them have come this month, but he tied his season-high of 14 in the other start hes made this month so Im not too worried. Plus, he has 29 strikeouts in 19 innings against the Nats this year in three starts (1.42 ERA, 1.00 WHIP for those curious).Roark has been every bit as good as his 2014 breakout and you could make the case that hes even a little better from a fantasy angle because he has added a full strikeout to his bottom line (7.3 K/9). Both Fernandez and Roark have 16 starts of a 60 or better Game Score this year. Fernandez has at least six strikeouts in each one with seven of at least 11 strikeouts while Roark has gone 6+ just eight times including his only double-digit strikeout outing of the season (15 v. MIN).Rich Hill versus Johnny Cueto is an equally awesome matchup that should be a lot of fun to watch and could be a playoff preview. For the purposes of DFS, Hill is a worse version of Fernandez while Cueto is a better Roark. Hill was great with Oakland, but hes been on another level with LA, albeit for just four starts. He has a 1.48 ERA and 0.53 (!) WHIP in 24.3 innings with 28 strikeouts and just three walks. In fact, he hasnt allowed a run as a Dodger until his most recent outing in Arizona when they put four on him. He still fanned eight despite just 5.3 innings.What Cueto lacks in dominant strikeout ability (7.9 K/9), he makes up for with endurance. He trails only Chris Sale (6) in complete games with five and his two shutouts are tied with Corey Kluber for second-most behind Clayton Kershaw. Cueto is averaging 6.9 innings per start, again trailing only Sale (7.3). Its an interesting contrast with Hill, whose lingering blister issue can end his night preemptively at any point. There are five starts with at least 14 outings of a 65+ Game Score this year and three of them are going on Tuesday: Lester 17, Cueto 15, and Fernandez 14. Max Scherzer is pacing the league with 20. And just as a fun little sidenote, Cueto is tied with -- yep, you guessed it -- Chris Sale.SolidJ.A. Happ and Hisashi Iwakuma square off in the Solid-if-Unspectacular Bowl. Happ went through a period of dominance earlier this summer when he ripped off eight starts of a 1.78 ERA with 64 strikeouts in 50.7 innings, but his return to earth (4.50 ERA, 19 Ks in last 26 IP) puts him essentially on par with the always-steady Iwakuma. Happ in his last nine starts has a 3.27 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 3.3 K:BB ratio over 52.3 innings while Iwakuma has a 3.07 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, and a 3.6 K:BB ratio over 55.7 innings.Kevin Gausman is definitely a risk going up against the Red Sox. On the one hand, they pasted him for 11 runs in nine innings over his first two starts against them earlier this year. On the other, he just popped eight shutout innings on em his last time out, pushing his ERA down to 2.06 over his last nine starts with 62 strikeouts in 56.7 innings. Gausman has been a boom or bust pick all year, not just against the Red Sox: he has six starts with a 70+ Game Score, but five others of 40 or lower (including a season-worst 22 against these Red Sox back in June). There are enough viable options to avoid this risk, but if youre a multi-lineup person looking to go against the grain with one of them, Gausmans your huckleberry.Spot StartersJulio Teheran and Robert Gsellman are both viable SP2 options when they go head-to-head in New York. Teheran is coming off a 5 ER dud against Miami, but as I reegularly point out in this space each week, not all bad starts are created equally.ddddddddddddTeheran was cruising through five (1 ER, 3 H, 5 K, 1 BB) when it came unglued in the sixth: 3B, 1B, HBP, deep flyball out, 3-run HR, fin. Just because it came in one awful sequence doesnt mean we dont count it, but its a lot different than allowing runs in three of the five-plus innings while dodging traffic of 10 or so base runners. Teheran has not only done his best work on the road this year, but he has also crushed the Mets with a nearly-invisible 0.78 ERA and 0.52 WHIP in 23 innings (8.5 K:BB).Gsellman has only been in the majors for five minutes, but he has continued the seemingly endless stream of quality starters the Mets have to combat their seemingly endless stream of injuries to the more heralded arms. The Braves have actually handed him his worst start so far (5 IP/4 ER), but he also logged a season-high six strikeouts. The Braves have been markedly better in the second half offensively, but I still dont run from them with starters.Sean Manaea has quietly put up a 2.74 ERA in his last 65.7 innings dating back to July 10 when he put up seven scoreless against the Astros, who he faces on Tuesday. Hes allowed more than 3 ER in just two of the 11 appearances (theres one relief appearance, but he went 5 IP so it was essentially a start).I see the gaudy projected Game Score for Michael Pineda, but I remain entirely suspect. Hes got a sharp 2.84 ERA in three starts this month, but the wet blanket on that is his 12.7 innings as he hasnt finished five in any of the three starts. Me personally, I cant start him.HittingCardinals will be in high demand against Jorge de la Rosa for sure. For his career he has a 146-point platoon split favoring righties, but this year its been just five points thanks to a full season career-worst .842 OPS against lefties. That said, there are enough righties on St. Louis to avoid risking the lefty-lefty matchups. Stephen Piscotty is my top pick here, but Im also looking at Randal Grichuk, Jedd Gyorko, and Aledmys Diaz. If I were to pick a lefty, itd be Matt Carpenter.Adam Wainwright has seen his season ebb and flow. He opened with a 6.80 ERA in his first eight starts, then had a 2.84 in his next 14 as it looked like he was back before suffering through a 5.64 in his last eight. He has a brutal 6.15 ERA on the road and a trip to Coors is of four teams with a 10 rating in stolen bases on Tuesday so Ill take their team leader in that category (30) with the added bonus of maybe getting some big offense out ont going to help that. He hasnt had a platoon split this year, making all of the stud Rockies viable for Tuesday: Carlos Gonzalez, Charlie Blackmon, Nolan Arenado, David Dahl, and DJ LeMahieu top my list.It looks like Josh Smith will start for Cincinnati against the Cubs. He has a sharp 214-point platoon split favoring lefties and his horrific 1.8 HR/9 has been equal opportunity. Anthony Rizzo is obviously the top pick, but Id also consider switch-hitters Dexter Fowler and Ben Zobrist even on their weaker side. Kris Bryant hasnt had any issues with righties this year, posting a .919 OPS with 24 of his 37 homers.The James Shields-Jake Thompson matchup could be a fruitful alternative to a Coors stack while still allowing for some premium pitching as neither team is loaded with costly stars. Shields is making everyone look like an All-Star this year while the rookie Thompson is getting pummeled by lefties. Im looking at Odubel Herrera, Tommy Joseph, Cameron Rupp, Maikel Franco, and even Freddy Galvis on the Phillies. Galvis somehow has 20 homers this year, 17 against righties. Jose Abreu has a 1.038 OPS over the last month and 16 of his 24 homers against righties. Adam Eaton and Todd Frazier are the other big considerations for Chicago.Angels lefties draw the only other 10 rating aside from Cardinals righties, but theres no real way to maximize that as Kole Calhoun is the only usable bat from that side against A.J. Griffin.Most likely to go yard: Gary Sanchez. Im going a little unorthodox here. Hes facing a lefty and he only has a .752 OPS against them this year, but Im calling a homer against a reliever for the rookie backstop.Most likely to swipe a bag: Jean Segura. Arizona is one of four teams with a 10 rating in stolen bases on Tuesday so Ill take their team leader in that category (30) with the added bonus of maybe getting some big offense out of him, too. Segura is having a career year with 17 HRs and an .855 OPS in 642 PA. ' ' '
