    The last regular season at Fenway as the team continues its drive for Home Field advantage. Game time: 1:35 p.m. TV/Radio: NESN/WEEI Stat of the Day: The Red Sox are 72-10 when they score five runs or more. Notes: The Red Sox are 10-8 vs. the Blue Jays this season entering today's final game against them ... Doubront has not pitched since Sept. 6. This is his third start against the Blue Jays this season ... Dustin Pedroia needs one home run to reach 100 for his career ... The Red Sox have Monday and Thursday off this week, the final week of the regular season. They play at Colorado Tuesday-Wednesday and wrap up the regular season starting Friday in Baltimore. Song of the Day: Edit: The Carl Yastrzemski Song by Jess Cain.

    It would be interesting to meet Tito in playoff series.

    He got caught once and made a mea culpa, which was obviously worthless. He is climbing up the record books and ruining the integrity of the games records and statistics. He has made hundreds of millions of dollars cheating the game and the fans. ARod is no victim. On the other hand Selig and the Yankees are hypocrites looking to make an example of him when he can no longer perform at an elite level. The Yankees just want to save money. When he was hitting 50 bombs a year, they looked the other way.

    Same thought here.

    It's a shame that one of the longest-standing records in the game (Gehrig's Grand Slam record) had to fall to a notorious cheater. Thank you Bud Selig for your contribution to destroying the integrity of a great games records.

    Who do we want to see in the Wild Card? Edit: There are 5 additional possibilities that wouldn't fit in the poll. Texas/KC Texas/Yankees Baltimore/KC Baltimore/Yankees KC/Yankees

    Washington gave away game 6 of thatWorld Series at least twice. He outsmarted himself and lost a championship. Grady Little got fired for far less. If Washington had done that in Boston he would have been fired before the clubhouse had been cleared.

    That's great. I've never been to a clinching game. Very cool.

    It will be interesting to see Farrrell's bullpen rotation in the last week. I don't think Taz is a lock to be the 8th inning guy in the playoffs. It will be interesting to see how Dempster gets used. He has experience as a closer. I winder is Farrell would consider using him in the 8th.

    They shouldn't. There is no way of knowing that they were clean. Other guys are being kept out on suspicion without evidence. No one from that era is above suspicion. If they get in right away, it will be beause the writer love to suck pinstripe dick.
  11. a700hitter
    No one from the steroid era is going in for a long time.
  12. a700hitter
    But he is a Yankee and they won championships so he should be in.
  13. a700hitter
    LOL!! You should know by now that I don't expect them to be infallible. I hope for competence or better.
  14. a700hitter
    His career should be misremembered.
  15. a700hitter
    Yep, true, but none were 1 inning pitchers and none of them were locks on the Hall either.
  16. a700hitter
    No player who was a 1- inning pitcher for his entire career has made it into the HOF. They are not full contributors. If Mo makes it, Trevor Hoffman's career was pretty close to Mo's. He'd have to go too. Mo will make it, because everyone feints at the sight of pinstripes. He has been built up a a mythological figure by the NY press, and the Yankees won championships. If he played in San Diego, no one would think about him after retirement. Let's face it, if he was a HOF pitching talent, he'd have been a starter. One inning guy, but a Yankee, so he will go to the HOF. What's next career Pinch Hitters in the Hall. It would happen if the Yankees played NL rules.

    Sometimes organizations hype prospects with he intent of building their trade value. In the case of Lars, I think the FO believed their own hype. They made a big mistake. They had him hyped pretty good at one point and he could have been a major piece in a trade package. They held him and he crashed to earth along with his trade value. They did not maximize the value of that asset.
  18. a700hitter
    It's a 1 inning job. BFD. Closers should have a more difficult time getting to the HOF than DHs. His numbers against his biggest rival are not that impressive. Admittedly, he was the most consistent and steadying force that I have seen in the back-end of a pen for such a long period of time. The Yankees will experience tremendous fluctuations in performance from year to year going forward due to the unpredictable nature of BP pitchers. As for the HOF, he has been romanticized way too much. He's a 1 inning pitcher, not a full contributor.
  19. a700hitter
    People were starting to blame you for the team's downfall and 3 year absence from the playoffs.
  20. a700hitter
    Great game by Lackey!! Nice clincher.
  21. a700hitter
    LOL!! Oh okay, I was worried that you might be lacking an appropriate sense of proportion.
  22. a700hitter
    Hey Spud, are you doing the reverse lock thing, because you aren't usually so pessimistic.
  23. a700hitter
    You do realize that I was referring to beard?
  24. a700hitter
    The pubes that you cultivate on your face don't irritate your silky smooth skin?
  25. a700hitter
    I don't think the crop of first baseman is especially thin. Napoli, Kendrys Morales and Abreu is a decent field.
