Red Sox: Lester was hammered by the Blue Jays in his last start. The left-hander allowed seven runs on eight hits in just 2 1/3 innings, the shortest outing of his career as a starter. In addition, the seven runs he gave up tied a career high, which he set on Aug. 18, 2006, against the Yankees

Yankees: Mussina had his best outing of the season against Baltimore in his last start.

Thanks for asking 8ate, we have a baby girl (#2) due in November (reason I couldn't make it to the GN). Hope to make it in 2009. Looking forward to seeing you at the poker table again one day.

I'm liking the weak Yankee banks this series...

take the way over in game 2

Moose's last start he went 6 innings giving up 9 hits and 4 earned runs in a no-decision start.
No his best effort.

Moose's best effort was earlier this month beating the leagues best Angels pitching 7 innings giving up 2 hits and one earned run.

Hoping for a Yanks sweep. So tired of Boston.

Lester got rocked his last outing, got to think he is in for a big bounce back start... yanks need to take the first 2

Not a huge series at all. It is for the Red Sox of course. Wild card race is between Boston and Twins/ChiSox. The NYY suck.

Did you see the NL east race last year?

If NY can somehow sweep Bos they WILL make the playoffs...I never count them out...I dont know how they do it...They got 6 more vs BOS...they could easily get in

Real Boston fans never count there chickens they remember the massacre in '06 at home 4 in a row KO by the yanks in August (bash time) and of course they will never forget 1977. The Johnny come lately's have them in the WS already.

Im a yankee fan but I see them in trouble...

6 vs Boston
6 vs Tampa
4 vs ChiSox
3 vs LAA
