Yanks win and Beckett Backs Down

Yanks sweeped the Sox and do I feel like a kid again back in the 80s. The Yanks look just too good and the Sox look like a team that can't compete. I will never try to hide my hatred for the Yankees (I have respect for Jeter but that is it). As this season has progressed and it has looked more and more like the Red Sox are not going to legitimately contend for the title, I have come to begin to focus on the teams that might be able to beat the Yanks. I don't have a front runner and in fact I don't know if they can be beat this year. Can someone step up?

Beckett has had to Back down with back spasms. I have had back spasms and it can be crippling. You realize quickly how fragile we really are. Your back begins to feel like a rubber band that is about to snap and won't hold up against any pressure. Dice K has been less than stellar... there isn't another A lister on the club and we all know pitching is the most important part of making a World Series run. I hope Josh can take a break and be ready for the post season when we are going to need him.

Will the Sox Get Mauer?

The Yanks and Sox are going to duke it out not only on the field but in the Free Agent market again this off season. The Sox and Yanks are both in need of a catcher with two catchers that are near ancient. Mauer is the coming off his final year in his contract in Minnesota and is arguably the best catcher in baseball. In these scenarios the Yanks usually win and will likely win this one... Unless Mauer has more than baseball on his mind and doesn't want to play for the evil empire. Don't count out the Twins in all of this as they are going to make this even more interesting. Where do you think he will go?

Can we just call the season now and start the playoffs! So its not so damn cold for the series?
