    "The answer was in the Patriots eyes. Gone were the swagger and c0ck sure smirks, replaced by downcast eyes and heads in hands. For his poise and leadership Eli Manning was named the game's MVP. The 2007 Giants were never perfect nor meant to be. They were fighters, scrappers....now they could be called something else, World Champions."

    Pretty easy to make fun of our pitchers when you have studs like Kyle Farnsworth on your team. image

    Yeah he is a freaking stud alright. I can't believe Torre left him in so long. If he didn't the Yanks would not have needed extra innings....

    Torres' masterplan with Farnsworth was to make the Jays have to run the bases so much that they will be gassed for tomorrows game

    Another poor performance by Dice-K against the last place Rays. 5 Runs in 6 Innings.

    Ah, Gagne gets the win and Lugo gets the game winner. Just the way we scripted it. Just like clockwork.

    By the way - Varitek is indeed heating up at the plate. Just when it looked like he couldn't buy a hit, now he's hitting - and coming through in every key situation he's been in.

    I also rethought my vote for Red Sox MVP - I thought it was Okajima (and he was incredibly valuable all season long), but Mike Lowell has been fantastic - he's even done a great job filling in for Manny as protection for Ortiz in the lineup. I seriously hope they resign him.

    How about that, back to having the best record in the AL and first one to clinch a playoff spot. Come on Sox fans, were you really worried? With our history, why would you be worried?

    Congrats to the Red Sox indeed. The Red Sox are the 1st team in 2007 to clinch a playoff berth. They will also be the 1st team in MLB history to be the 1st team to clinch a playoff berth and the last team to clinch the Wild Card!!!! image

    to win the WS, this team will need plenty of help from Francona. He will make (or fail to make) decisions over the course of this week that will decide the team's fate. If he goes all out for the division title, I think a first round playoff exit is likely.

    Tonight was perfect! Sox win, Schilling looks great, Manny and Youk come back, Gagne doesn't implode, and the icing on the cake -

    The Yankees lose! Glad to see that $28 million dollars for Clemens was well spent!

    OK OK I will play Jer.

    If the Yanks go 0-5 and the Tigers go 4-0 the rest of the way then will tie the Yanks for the wild card. Anybody with a heads up on tie breakers just to humor Jerry?

    I was discussing this yesterday...the Yankees and Red Sox are both better off having the Sox win the AL East and the NYY winning the wild card. Sets both up better for the playoffs, given troubles each has had with the other opponents. Torre is smarter than Francona, think about that.
