The Indians are up 3-1. Are the Bo Sox finished, or will they make a comeback?
Thoughts/opinions?

As long as the Indians play the way they are playing, Boston is pretty much done. I just can't believe the Red Sox paid 50 million dollars on a pitcher who lost in game 3. People do not take the Indians seriously, but in this series, the Red Sox pitching is not getting the job done, and also, the Indians bullpen are way better than Boston's. And another thing, Boston relies too much on Manny, and Ortiz.

I still have faith they can...with Beckett going game 5 the Red Sox definitely have a chance to send the series back to Boston, then Schilling would go game six and he won't have two bad post-season games in a row, and then game 7 where anything can happen...I could definitely seeing this series going 7 games where I would not bet against the Sox...if the Indians don't wrap the series up in Cleveland the Sox will win in 7 games.

The Red sox may win 1 game, but they will not win 3 in a row. Yes, they have done it before, but that was against the yankees and the yankee team is even more of self 'deserving' primadonnas than Boston has.
Cleveland is full of a team that are trying to prove themself and establish themselves to set up for those big pay days, the Red Sox are already there.
The drive for Money and fame beats out the drive for fame any day of the week.
tonight or Friday, Sox are done.
Indians will beat the rockies in 5 in the series. The rockies look really strong when you compare them to other poor, just barely made the playoff teams.
If Milwaukee had made it in, they would be one to give the Indians a challenge.

Possible but unlikely. There were various intangibles at work when the Red Sox came back in 2004. They were angry, they were hungry, and they wanted to prove to the world that they could beat the Yankees when it mattered.
This year, it appears that the hungriest teams are the Rockies and the Indians, which is why Arizona got swept and Boston will not come back.

They are toast. I doubt they even get it back to Boston. Even if they win Game 5, they have old man Schilling with his 88 mph fastball against Carmona in Game 6.
There is no "repeating" 2004, ever. That was a once in a century occurrence, just like the Red Sox winning the World Series.
It's ovah.

Put a fork in the Red Sox, they are done. How many Red Sox fans are eating crow since even before series started they were talking about how they were going to pretty much be handed the championship this year but they choked & I think it is hilarious. You had your title win in 2004, just cherish those memories because they ain't going to the World Series this year.

Yes! The Red Sox can do it and will do it! Those of you who have bad things to say about the Red Sox can continue saying whatever it is you feel the need to say because let me just tell you...There are no fans like the Boston Red Sox fans. Most of you cheer for a team because your dad did, your grandfather did, it's where you were born, brought up...but Red Sox fans, well it's in our blood. We are devoted to our team, through good seasons and many many bad seasons. Being a Red Sox fan is more then just cheering for a team, they are our family, our home and they are in our blood. Once you are a Red Sox fan you never cheer for any other team. And no one can understand this better then a Red Sox fan. It's all about heart and the Red Sox have the heart - it's in their fans!
I believe...like many of us do every year...I believe in the Red Sox and I believe we can make this year history...again!
GO RED SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxo

No. Ole catsup sock and the Sox go down tomorrow. By the way, Wedge would be a genius if he had pitched Beckett last night considering Beckett plays for the Red Sox.

If the starters can get passed the fifth inning with out giving up 7 runs they can make something happen.....If they cant do that then they dont have a chance.....Josh Beckett has to bring his A GAME pitch like he did when he knocked out the Yankees in the 03 Series.....If his back doesnt tighten up.....IT ALL COMES DOWN TO PITCHING!!!!
