No, but they're benching the big guys...

Look at their lineup...
No Damon, no Giambi, no Posada...Nick Green at SS.

Wow...I never thought the Red Sox would be a team that we would "rest up" against.

We used to rest up FOR the Red Sox...

What a difference a weekend makes. I love baseball.

Or will they make the playoff as a wild card? No maybe not even make the playoffs?

They've played well since trading Abreu, starting pitching hasn't struggled and theyre only 2.5 games back with a game at hand over the teams infront of them.

When Big Papi hits a homerun, he points to the sky to thank God and then he points to someone behind the backstop. Probably the owners or coomentators but I can never figure out who.

Where did all the Red Sox fans go? They were here last week...They were all over the place when the team was in first place...But I can't find them today...

It reminds me of 2003...you couldn't find a Red Sox fan anywhere. Then a year later, the bars were full of people saying they were there all along.

It reminds me of the photo of the Red Sox owner's box toward the end of Saturday's game...empty.

Why didn't Theo Epstein do more at the trade deadline. He got the sweetheart Hinske deal, but that's like bringing a knife to a gun fight after the Yankees got Abreu and Lidle and Wilson.

Last night on ESPN, Jon Miller made a comment about Jeter's defense, and I see it from fans on here, too, who believe he's a great shortstop. However, outside of the occasional great play, the facts just don't support it.

With the exception of 1997 and 2004, Jeter always ranks at the bottom of the range factor rankings, and he had a -75 in 2002, which is incredibly bad. He might have a decent fielding percentage, but he doesn't get to nearly as many balls as do better shortstops. Tejada, Crosby, Guzman, Vizquel - all of these guys dwarf Jeter defensively, but don't get credit.

It's frustrating that so many people just don't get it, and continue to think that Jeter is a star in the field. Why is that?

Get this! My nephew is so whipped by his girl that she's "not letting him go" to the game in L.A. this friday! My problem: I have 2 tickets, section 423, row F, seats 3 & 4. They cost me $80 each. Any serious takers?
I'll meet you @ the stadium parking lot or somewhere close if you want, on Friday way, way before the game. I like to get there very early! Cash only, please, and $80 EACH is my final price. I'll save you the trouble of looking on other sites:
tick.co.com = $125 each
ticketliquidator.com = $105 each
netticket.com = $80 - 140 each
Angels ticket Exchange = $88-89.10
openseats & buyselltickets.com didn't even have competitive prices at all.
If you want these seats, email my profile ASAP.
I'll sell to the highest bidder by midnight tonight, but $160 is the absolute lowest I can go. Sorry if you don't win, and thanks for responding, everyone!

Considering his explosive history with Piazza, are you going to be able to root for him? I don't like the guy, but if he starts saving some games for the team, I might be able to warm up. What do you think?

The Tigers are slowly but surely choking it away, the White Sox haven't been playing that well, Santana's been lights out, Morneau, Mauer, Cuddyer, and Hunter have been hitting the ball well, and if somehow Liriano can return I think they can take it, and possibly without him, they have a sick record at home, I guess we'll see, I think they'll at least get the wild card, but I'm predicting a Tigers choke job, giving the division to the Twins, possibly White Sox.

Its crazy that people label Yanks fans like this but seem to forget that the "Red Sox Nation" started in what 2002 when the Red Sox started to compete with the Yanks. But somehow people are accepted as Red Sox fans no matter when they jumped on but Yanks fans are bandwagon jumpers?

They still have 4 games left in NY in September, yes? I don't think these two teams are ever done with each other until the last week of the season.

Did you guys see the boys from Saudia Arabia! Holy crap! They had 3 kids over 6 foot!The age limit is 13, but its fishy to me. The first baseman was 6'6 and the pitcher was 6'3! What do you think about them?
