    Tonight: Javy Vazquez vs Clay Buccholz
    Tomorrow: CC Sabathia vs John Lackey
    Sunday: AJ Burnett vs Josh Beckett
    Monday: Dustin Mosely vs Jon Lester

    Even a split would be bad for the Sox. Go Yanks.

    I wish that almost every Yanks/Sox series wasn't on a weekend. It nearly always means that two of the games are going to involve either Buck/McCarver or Miller/Morgan.

    And I just don't care enough about this series, even if they get swept. I'm far more concerned about the Rays.

    Agreed. The Sox are all but done at this point. The Rays are at absolute worst the second best team in baseball. And in a short series, I'm actually afraid of them.

    I'll be in AC this weekend so I probably won't see most of this series. That's okay, I don't feel like spending 6 hours in front of the tv anyway.

    A Yankees sweep would pretty much end the Red Sox season. Even 3/4 would be devastating.

    My wild, baseless prediction for this series: AJ Burnett will throw a gem on Sunday.

    I remember the days when Cervelli was a good defensive catcher.

    100+ pitches and he was still in there...jezus....so Torre like.

    and what good is having Grardner get on base if you're just gonna let him sit there until 2 strikes? against Martinez!?

    Fuk me ...Wondering if that's Joe or Brett's decision..either way it's too damn dumb!

    I hate the Red Sox as much as the next guy but for them to be only 5 behind the Yankees with the injuries theyve had is absolutely amazing. Tremendous job by those sickening fucks

    That's all on Gardner--he never runs until deep into counts. The guy is fast as lightning, but unfortunately he's not actually a great base runner.

    I like River Ave Blues a lot better.

    “I just remember hitting it and cringing,” Berkman said. “It was heading right for him. I hit it hard, so I hope he’s not out very long. I just told him as he was coming off the field, sorry about that. I clearly didn’t mean to. It wasn’t like I was trying to hit him in the teeth and missed low.”

    “Berkman’s contributions to the Yankees so far have been not the greatest,” he said, imagining fans’ reactions. “And clearly this is not good.”

    Didn't take long for Buck and McCarver to start giving the red sox verbal head.... about 5 minutes in.

    And Joe Buck was responsible for A-rod not paying attention... FUCK this guy
