  • Don't look in the Mirror

    Don't look in the mirror Red Sox. That's the Yanks closing fast. After choking away last nights game the Red Sox can't be feeling good about their chances. If they choke away the division, in all likelihood they'll win the wild card, their performance in the playoffs will be very interesting.

    It'll be an interesting weekend.

    You can't be serious! Yes, it was a very difficult beat but last time I checked they have the best record in baseball so why would they not be confident? What would they not feel good about? beating the Yankees? It's about winning a WS, not beating the Yankees. Both teams make the playoffs and when the Sox win the division, the Yanks lose to LAA and it will be another short October for the Bronx Bombers.

      Jack, I disagree. A tough beat such as last nights beat often leads to additional beats.

      IF the Sox blow the division IMO they'll have some doubt heading into the playoffs. Especially after blowing a 14 game lead. They are showing many kinks in their armor.

      Who's to say the Yanks will face the Angels? Currently, the Angels and Indians have the same record. Only 2 1/2 behind the Sox.

      Since the all star break the Yanks have the best record. They've closed the gap by 11 games.

      Like you, I'm a Met fan. I dislike the Yanks. I'm not sitting here rooting for the Yanks.

            What are ya gonna say IF the team with the "best record" in baseball chokes away a 14 game lead and does not win the division?? Im not saying it will happen but im saying there is a chance that it will happen.. How many times have we all seen where the team with the "best Record" does not win the title?? Ask St. Louis if they care what their record was when they made it in via the wild card.. Sometimes the "best team" doesnt always win..

              I will be pissed but i'll also give the Yankees their due. Boston has had the best record in baseball for months. If they finish with the 2nd best in baseball and the team better is ny, props to them. Nobody is going to jump off bridges because we only had the 2nd or 3rd best record in baseball. It will suck, no doubt .... but like you have been saying for weeks, once the playoffs start and everyone is (0-0) again, it will all be forgotten!

                  It is really weird cuz when they don't play each other, Boston seemingly keeps building on their lead. When they face off, NY totally has their number.

                    I agree.. Honestly its kinda nice these past 4 games to see the Yanks beat Boston because lord knows Boston has busted our asses quite a few times this season and last..

                      getting interesting, like it's supposed to be.....Gonna be some good BaseBall watchings coming up...........I personally don't give a damn who wins.......My team is the Rockies........Just like good BaseBall matchups, especially those like Bost/NYY, cause they always have controversy around em....

                      GL to both teams.....They'll both need it....kapt

                      I see the Angels and the Indians in the rear view mirror myself....

                        I have resigned myself to being New Yorks bitch.....We have no sack when we play that team

                        I have come to the point where i can not stomach listening to that idiot Francona after the game. He is a marble mouth and he talks as if his players are the bravest guys in the world and says "i saw the look in his eyes and could not take him out"

                        Why not pitch bulcholtz? where is the plan b? just leave okijima in there........sometimes you have to pull a guy and he does not have it.

                        Also Varitek is awful with men on in a clutch situation.....either strikes out or hits into a double play

                        And JD Drew.....enough said....he got a couple hits last night but loves to leave men on base.....

                        enough of my rant.....Can we get a fucking win at home?

                            The fact that they have not lost the lead in the last 3 - 4 weeks that Manny has been out is amazing in itself. This lineup is not that great without him. Pitching and defense....
