Everyone knows the Red Sox won the World Series and they did so pretty easily - 4 game sweep.  I take this as conclusive evidence the Sox are the better team - well the owner of the Rockies doesn’t agree -
“These guys did amazing things,” Monfort said. “I think this team is a better team […]

Dice-K came up big holding the Indians to just 2 runs over 5 innings.  The bullpen also looked great pitching 4 shutout innings to close the season on the Indians.
Josh Beckett won the ALCS MVP which I think most people will agree with now he needs to get the Cy Young to cap off an […]

Josh Beckett was amazing tonight - demonstrating why he should be the Cy Young winner for 2007.  It was nice to see the Sox hitting early and get some run support for Beckett - it looks like the offense is heating up at the right time.  It turns out this was Josh Beckett’s 2nd consecutive […]
