Sox win, get within 1.5 of the Rays! That series was actually pretty boring, all blowouts.

[landia]

Next step

[BoSox21]

you gotta like how the rotations line up too

 

Tomorrow: Lester vs. Jackson

Tuesday: Dice-K vs. Kazmir (7.00 ERA vs. Boston this year)

Wednesday: Beckett vs. Sonnanstine

[das11209]

Where is Colon - he can take Wake's spot going forward.

[Thumper]

Gonna be a great week of baseball coming up. Can't wait to watch the games against the Rays.

 

Let's take 2 of 3 ATLEAST and get that damn lead in the division!

[landia]

I think Matsuzaka will make us be NO.1 in AL EAST.

[Thumper]

I think Matsuzaka will make us to be NO.1 in AL EAST.

 

Don't forget Lester. He's been really great this season for us. Solid ace in the making.

[Cocos Disciples]

Where is Colon - he can take Wake's spot going forward.

 

He had a rough game but I'd keep him in the rotation.

[BoSox21]

Where is Colon - he can take Wake's spot going forward.

 

at worst, take either Colon or Wakefield and put them in the 'pen as the long reliever and get rid of Chris Smith
