I was just thinking....hold onto my hat.....this roller coaster is headed downhill! Guess its the lifelong Red Sox fan in me.....but those Yankees....I have too much respect for the organization and their history to count them out in May/June....they are always a threat even from 12 games back! The "slow starters" need to realize the "start" ended about a month and a half ago!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

The pitching has been good......and you know the bats will be back, just a temporary slump

They will be fine I believe.....I never count out the Yanks....it will be close, but the Sox have the pitching this year. They can't play .700 ball all year long.

Well I said don't poke the dragon. The team you guys had dead and buried a few weeks ago is closing fast and looking invincible. Our offense is horrible. I couldn't even listen to them the last few nites on the radio at work. Hopefully they will right the ship as it is taking on water fast. "Where is Roger", glad I wasn't chanting that ditty a few weeks ago.

Still nice to be in 1st while slumping. Honestly, did anyone think our beloved Red Sox wouldn't pull at our heart strings.
That's why we fans all die so young. Keep the faith, withouth the valleys you don't appreciate the peaks.

Go Red Sox

You are right Paul, it has been painful to listen to and watch.

Dice K looked great today. Manny looked good, so he hit good .
Okajima, got the old heart pumping in the 8th putting the first two on, but the K to Barry* was schweeeeet. Yankee fans must of been licking there chops when he was up to bat.

Go Red Sox

What is Francona thinking?
