    Just got good news with Beckett...but they're hurting and their bullpen has been terrible. Now the Rays own them and they go back to Fenway for a 4 game set in just a few days. If the Rays have their way...the Sox are in trouble.

    Of course Sox fans probably won't say that they're worried...but anyone think they should be?

    Never see this coming, Jon Lester, 43 pitches in 1st inning...WOW

    I pass on Sox & NYY this week, but go with Boston today, and after what Rays do in this 1st inning, to the only stud pitcher Sox have, fans must be worried...

    No pitching, no bullpen, they only can hope that offense gonna wake up...

    they just have to limp into the playoffs, then it's like a new season.

    everything changes once the regular season is over.

    I think they will do what it takes to make it into the playoffs, but it's definitely been an ugly 2-3 weeks.

    I know they'll make it too...but I have to ask.

    The Rays also have 7 left against the Yanks...but that's a more even series that the Rays won't cakewalk through.

     

    As for Lester...he threw like 40 against the Yanks in the 1st at Fenway last week but settled down. The only difference is that he didn't allow a run in the 1st that game.

    as a huge sox fan, i dont think the rays will catch them for the wild card.  Unless the redsox get healthy in a hurry, they will be a 1st round exit come the post season though.  They have one of the worst rotations in the majors right now.  lackey and wakefield are finished.  bedard and andrew miller????  no thanks.  I had very high expectations for this team at one point this year.  injury's.  a crusher....

    Rays have a good chance catching Boston.   You have one team firing on all cylinders and another just going downhill.  I take Tampa's pitchers over Boston's pitchers anyday.

    Rays remaining schedule :
    Sept. 19 - off
              20 - Yankees
              21 - Yankees
              22 -  Yankees
              23 -  Tor
              24 -  Tor
              25 -  Tor
              26  -  Yankees
              27  -  Yankees
              28 -   Yankees

    Red Sox remaining schedule :
    Sept . 19 - Orioles
               20-  Orioles
               21-  Orioles
               22  - Off
               23  -  Yankees
               24  -  Yankees
               25 -    Yankees
               26 -    Orioles
               27  -    Orioles
               28 -    Orioles

    It looks like Rays has a tougher schedule compare to Red Sox,but  Red sox has  too many injuries in their team plus their pitchers  are very unreliable.

    Too many posibilities,anything can happen, i would say the team that has more healthy players  will get the wild card.

               21-  Orioles
               22  - Off
               23  -  Yankees
               24  -  Yankees
               25 -    Yankees
               26 -    Orioles
               27  -    Orioles
               28 -    Orioles

    It looks like Rays has a tougher schedule compare to Red Sox,but  Red sox has  too many injuries in their team plus their pitchers  are very unreliable.

    Too many posibilities,anything can happen, i would say the team that has more healthy players  will get the wild card.

    very true. Though with beckett and lester in the rotation along with studs like ellsbury, crawford, gonzalez, pedroia anything can happen. They could easily win it all if they start playing well.

    My avatar is Cheryl Cole, by the way.

     

    As for the remaining schedule...I agree that the Red Sox "should" finish out.

    I'm annoyed by the Yankee fans who say "Lets Go Rays!!! Knock the Red Sox out!!!"

    What they don't understand is, if they want the Rays in the playoffs, odds are likely that it will be at the Yankees' expense because they'll have to win games against the Yankees to keep up.

    I understand the Sox are playing bad...but there is no chance in hell they get manhandled by the lowly Orioles.

    That's tough. The Sox own the Yanks regardless of whose hurt or not. And their offense owns all of the Yanks pitching.

    The Rays, on the other hand, have Shields, Price and Hellickson.

    But the real question is...would the Red Sox make it to the ALCS. They may own the Yanks...but if they're up against Texas or Detroit on the road...can they win?

    It's all about pitching in postrseason, mostly. Redsox prolly exit quickly with the current starting pitchings, but i would lean facing Rays if i were Yanks homer.

    The Yanks had a 3-man rotation in 2009 and AJ had a 5.33 ERA. So the Yanks had 2 reliable starters. They averaged 5.3 runs per game in the playoffs that year, scoring under 4 runs just twice.

    If the Sox fail to make the playoffs...this would be a bigger collapse than the Mets in 2007.
