Since there was a lot of 'not feeling it' going on, I've made the executive decision to create the gamethread.

 

The Yankees have been clinging to playoff hopes by the skin of their teeth. It's time for the Sox to kick those teeth down the Yankees' throats and end their season once and for all.

 

Lineups to be posted by VA, per normal mojo rules. Game notes to be posted by Thunder. Desperate attempts at tearing down the Sox to be posted by Jacko, but only if the Sox are behind at some point, which is unlikely.

 

Go Sox.

Notes: The Red Sox start the day with an 8.5 game lead in the division. The Yankees are a game out in the wild card race. ... The Yankees have won three straight and four of five after losing three in row against the Red Sox to start a four-game series last weekend. ... The Sox are 10-6 against the Yankees this season, outscoring them 98-78. ... Lackey is 2-1, 5.79 in three starts against the Yankees this season. He allowed seven runs on eight hits over 5.2 innings against the Yanks last Saturday but got the win. ... Kuroda is 1-3, 4.26 in five starts against the Red Sox this season. He gave up two runs on five hits over six innings last Sunday against the Sox in a game the Yankees won. ... The Sox are 29 of their last 29 on stolen bases, last getting nabbed on Aug. 9. ... The Sox are three games up on Oakland for the best record in the AL and percentage points behind the Braves for the best record in baseball.

I'm glad I don't have to. Time for a change IMO!

 

They are the worst and have been for a long time. The third guy, Minnahan I think is about the only thing salvageable from that crew and there are times when it seems like he is about to go postal on the other two....not just as a means of livening up the show either.
