Huff had 2 RBI's against the Yankees - he could be a nice pick-up if we don't have to give up much.

 

I would rather take Huff than Millar.

 

The Aubrey Huff that has over 25 HRs this season? That Aubrey Huff?

[riverside sluggers]

Solid game by the offense. While Byrd did give up the 4 runs. It did come on just 2 bad pitches and he pitched long enough to keep the Sox in the game and not too long for the bullpen. After facing the Blue Jays 3 conecutive times, I bet he's giddy to move on to someone else. And Pedroia continues to roll! He is set to have 15 + HRs, 75+ RBIs

 

Also great to see some power from Tek, homering in 3 consecutive games!!
