Today we approach game one of yet another epic Yankee Red Sox series in a match-up for the ages. Josh Beckett vs the "Phenom" Joba Chamberlain.
This three game set could do wonders for the hobbled Bronx Bombers. Coming of a six game win streak, is just the perfect way to enter this three game set of such high magnitude.
The Bosox got lucky by the timing of Poppy's return. Especially now that Manny was just bit by the injury bug himself. (or was he ?!?!?!)
This series to me is a litmus test for the Yankee bullpen. A bullpen which is firing on all cylinders (including Farnsworth). If they impress against this lineup on such a high stage, then bullpen help via the trade market is just not necessary. If they falter, then bring on Fuentes and co...
I'm very curious to see how this team responds on a whole. In my opinion, this series is really a good way to see if we are October bound. Cm-on boys, lets tear them another one!

the truth is the yanks are in a great spot right now and its trully amazing how they do it every year. this series is huge. but to tell you the truth yankee fans should want farnsworth to really suck in this series. if you ask me in big time september and october games i woulde much rather have Fuentes on the mound in a big spot then farnsworth. granted he id pitching well now but i still can see him explode at any time.
those mets had 2 straight very nice bounce back wins against philly. nobody in the world could have predicted that delgado would be hitting this good right now. lately he looks like he did when he was with toronto. its impossible for him to stay this hot but i just hope he doesnt slump badly.
beltran is due for a big week or 2.
