Jon Lester is unbeatable; Tampa Bay series preview.

The Red Sox big right hander Jon Lester cannot lose. He's been pitching out of his mind of late. Jon Lester hasn't given up more than 4 ERs since May 26th. With an offense like the Red Sox have knowing you only have to score five runs to win a game is a great feeling.

Lester takes the mound for the first game in the Tampa Bay series and I know since I decided to write this article on Lester that he will undoubtedly give up eight runs over three and third.

Tonight's matchup: LHP JON LESTER BOS vs. RHP ANDY SONNANSTINE

The Red Sox and the Rays appear to be headed in totally different directions. The Rays have decided to send their ace to the Angels for basically nothing, and they're going to try to win the wild card with the likes of prospect Wade Davis, Sonnanstine, Price, Garza, Niemann, and Shields. Other than tomorrow nights Garza vs. Beckett matchup I'm not too worried about Tampa. They're going to be playing some very tough teams down the stretch and the Red Sox are starting to click at the perfect time.

Look for tonights game to be a close game with Jon Lester throwing in another quality start. I expect Lester's line to be something like 7 IP 5 H 3ER 8K's 3BB

J.D. Drew should play a big role in deciding tonight's matchup. A win will put Boston well on their way to securing the Wild Card.

Wild Card is too close

Megan Fox is back....



The Wild Card Race is on FIRE with the Rangers creeping up on the Red Sox. All the Sox need to do is WIN and they'll create space. I'd like to see a sweep of the Blue Jays if possible. If not 2 out of 3 will do.

I got nothing for you guys today sorry. Check the video its so good.

Yesterday was a great day, Nick Green is a nasty reliever, Tazawa sucks.

Unfortunately I went 2-2 which brings my record to a nauseating 23-14 (.608)

Todays picks are:

Red Sox over the Blue Jays
Dodgers over the Reds
Mariners over the Royals
Yankees over the White Sox

There is no WAY... Beckett gives up more than 4 runs tonight.

New York Yankees 8/23 Live blog ( I hate Joe Morgan)

Okay so it's not really a live blog.
Right now I am listening to Joe Morgan, and oh my god I hate him.

He is saying how surprised he is about how Lou Gehrig has more hits than Derek Jeter. I can't believe his Yankee bias, Varitek doubles home the game tying run and Joe Morgan calmly says "oh Varitek pokes that one just by Teix". An inning prior Matsui hits a ball just over the right field fence and he celebrates like he's on the Yankees roster "MATSUI HITS ONE HIGH INTO THE NIGHTTTTT". Morgan you're by far the most biased color guy I've ever heard.

Jeter just got a base knock and I feel like he wants to lick the sweat off of Jeter's .... (use your imagination)....

Anyone else out there hate Joe Morgan more than me? I dont think so.

There is no way Joe Morgan sleeps with Jeter tonight.

Tex just doubled home the go-ahead run.

Meet your 1995 Boston Red Sox


As I was searching through some old statistics and rosters, I came across a team that triggered a ton of interest. I was thinking "Man, the team we had in 1995 was filled with interesting characters, I wonder if anyone feels the same way."

So what I've decided to do is break down the 1995 Boston Red Sox and by break down I just mean that I will introduce the top ten players of the 1995... and by top players I mean.. most memorable.

Todays player is Lee Tinsley.
In 1995 Lee Tinsley hit .284 with 7 HRs and 41 RBI's not too shabby.
Anyways I remember Lee Tinsley had a 15 game hitting streak that year and completed 14 consecutive steals (including 12 successful steals to end 1994). I remember him but do you ?

Thanks to www.pro-ball.com for the picture.



There is no fucking way the Red Sox beat the Yankees tonight
There is no fucking way Johnny Damon hits a homer off of Josh Beckett
There is no way San Diego beats St Louis.
