I would think doubleheader as the Mets obviously don't come back. Of course, NY and Boston is so close, that a trip for one game is certainly doable.

The Braves are horrendous. They dont have anyone on their team that can close a game. What a mess that team is.

In other news, Giles' HR today was totally expected.
I dropped him last night.

Does anyone know if the Braves are horrendous? And do they have anyone on their team who can close out games?

Are the Braves any good this year?

Beckett with a no hit first inning.
The overshift hurts them as Ortiz advances the runners on a chopper back to Pedro. Manny then walks to load them and Trot with a warning track out to make it 1st and 3rd with 2 outs.
Vtek with an RBI single and it's 2-0.

Milledge drops another ball on the left field wall. Two more runs score, 4-0 Sox in the first. Ouch.

Helluva game last night.. this team is ON FIRE.... scoring about 8 runs a game over this streak. Playing airtight defense and getting quality start after quality start from their staff. I gotta say it's looking good.
Then again, this is the JV East mostly at home.... the Yanks are struggling a bit with them but they're beat up. Boston is absolutely steamrolling through Interleague play however.
Tonight the Sox are going for 12 straight as Schilling faces Glavine. This is one hell of a matchup and will be carried on ESPN for all to see. I believe Glavine leads the career series 12-2 or something lopsided like that. Then again, Schilling typically didn't have this Boston offense/defense behind him.
HEre's to hoping the Sox don't let up and finish this off...

To all you Red Sox (and Yankees) fans - please stop stuffing the mlb all-star balloting with your has-been players. Varitek at catcher?!! With his healthy .256 average. Ever heard of Joe Mauer? - I guess .392 isn't what it used to be. Not to mention Jim Thome (only a write-in, guess I can't blame you clowns for that, he's just a DH - oh wait what about Big Slapi? Nevermind). Only a short time left, better get those votes in so that Vlad Guerrero doesn't get that 8th spot that a Red Sox or Yankees player obviously deserves. No Tigers, no White Sox? Guess the 2 top teams in the AL don't deserve reps. Konerko, Iguchi/Polanco, Crede, and Ordonez are all having better seasons than Giambi, Loretta, Lowell, and Damon at their respective positions, yet have less votes. Go figure
Alex Gonzalez is 4th in SS voting - he is garbage.
Go watch "Fever Pitch" again, whine about the next 86 years (or whatever - no one really cares), and go have the librarian help you use the community computah and hit up mlb.com 25 more times to vote for your lovable losers.
What a joke.

He's right.Is Cano still leading the vote at 2B? He's the third best 2B in the AL East.

No ####.. but that doesn't change the fact that when you put the vote to the fans, about 90% of them view it as a popularity contest. It's just how it is.... something you've got to live with. Change the system or get off your ### and vote.
It's just more fun to laugh at the guy though

Yeah, you are right. The Red Sox/Yankees fans stuff the ballot box.
Papelbon, Ortiz, Ramirez deserve to be all-stars. Schilling/Beckett doesn't.

Yep, Sox are the class of MLB. Period.
Helluva catch by Crisp. Simply incredible.

One helluva game. Great pitchers duel early.
Youk once again comes up big in a key spot.. Coco gets the game ball for manufacturing that tying run (bunt single, steal second, sac to 3rd, sac home) and the catch.
Schilling seems to be settling in nicely.. we'll see what happens when we start seeing some real opposition again. Mets have a great core but just can't get it together... they played like Fenway scared the #### out of them.
Sox are steamrolling but it's a bit early to call them the class of MLB. Right now? Yeah... but we've always been streaky... summer doldrums hit and we'll have a cold july or august.... count on that.
Hoping lester can really step in and hold down his spot in the rotation.. someone is going to need to step up as a viable #4 if we're going to make a serious run. ALso, bullpen needs a bit of depth. MDC and Hansen need to iron out some stuff... Tavarez is hit or miss and Seanez is junk. Papelbon.. well, he's still papelbon for now.
12 and counting... Now we head south... Marlins and the pesky ### DRays.. sweeping either of these guys on the road will be tough... simply not gonna happen in TB.

i'd be stoked if we merely win both series. i think the mets will play the yankees tough. hopefully by the end of next week the 4 game lead is still intact.
This series should show Mets fans how far away this team really is. They played timid throughout. Willie should've known better.

Read about a real team. Don't forget to push play to see another great play by a real CF.

Just wanted to acknowledge the great play by the rays. Haven't had a chance to watch any of these games due to chaos after work lately, however I gotta say folks continue to underestimate the Rays. Sox really needed to take at least 1 game out from under the rays to finish the short road trip at .500. No such luck.
Let's hope to come out strong in the 2nd half...
