The division is yours. Has been since the middle of August.

I'm happier winning 6 of the last 7 Bosox matchups...good practice for the playoffs.

And by not winning the division your missing out on this for the 1st time ever. Trust me the Redsox are taking the 8 day series.

the AL regular-season champion will be given the choice of whether to play Division Series A, in which the if-necessary five games are scheduled to be played in seven days beginning on Thurs, Oct. 4; or in Division Series B, in which the five games are scheduled to be played in eight days.

The seven-day series features two sets of back-to-back games, with off-days for travel scheduled between Games 2 and 3 and between Games 4 and 5. The eight-day series features only one set of back-to-back games (Games 3 and 4), with off-days scheduled between Games 1 and 2, another between Games 2 and 3, and still another between Games 4 and 5.

yankee fans sound alot like us red sox fans in years past.

"Yeah, you may have a better record but we beat you when it didnt matter."

Was this in between 1918 and 2004?

3 1/2 games and closing. Jeter's HR looms large....Never say never!

Your smug attitude reminds me of a lot of Yankees fans. But, my never-ending hope and lack of whining should not remind anyone of Red Sox fans....;-)

Ouch. You really know how to insult a Yankee fan.

i'm not trying to insult anyone.

Let's give the Sox fans their due...no doubt the division is theirs. A done deal.

3 1/2 is only a number at this point. Even if it is the closest the Yanks have been since May 4.

No way the Sox could blow it now.

No way.

What biting sarcasm. Jim, you've stirred the pot yet again! :beer:

 

[2knees]

well you're probably gonna be overflowing with confidence after tonight. It'll take a miracle not to have the lead cut to 2 1/2.

Burnett vs. Lester

Leicester (who?) vs. Mussina. Even if the moose blows, how many runs are the yankees gonna put up against that hack.

Nice reverse psychology comeback Pat!

I think I would enjoy watching a few Yanks/Bosox games with you guys.

 

[SkiDog]

I wish it was reverse psychology but if i were a betting man, i'd lay down some serious coin on the blue jays tonight.

Ok im just gonna say this and get this off my chest, Eric GagME comes in the 8th gets 2 outs then loads up the bases and gives up 3runs and blows yet another game for the Sox i think the 4th he has blown since hes been here and hes only been in about 8 games. This guy just doesnt fit in here and sucks my ass, him and JD Drew, they both need to go. The yankees meanwhile are beating the hell out of these non contenders and the redsox and Mets both are blowing ass, they are both horrible front runners and if the redsox lose this division they deserve too, they are making me sick and pissing me off, its a good thing i dont work at the post office.

 

[2knees]

A prophet is among us. Is it just me but since Gagne has join the bull pen its been all downhill.. I am beginning to believe he is really an Yankee's secret agent or a WITCH and you know what we do to witches ....

well i may have predicted a jays win but that wasnt what i had in mind.

I need to vent for 10 minutes. i apologize in advance for the following post.

1st) Why francona chose to stay with gagne after he issued the walk that loaded the bases is odd. Why he left him in, after walking in the tying run, to give up that rocket of a double is almost incomprehensible.

2nd) Thank goodness for the wildcard. But honestly, the sox have no Manny or Youkilis and a very hurt Coco but additionally we have J.D. Drew and Eric Gagne.

 

[ComeBackMudPuddles]

All you Sox fans shouldn't be so hard on Gagne. Didn't you hear how he tried to knock Mariano out of the game the other day?? Must have gotten some tips from Varitek....

Spoken like a veteran Sox fan.

 

[JimG.]

GAGne does it again. That guy has ruined the bullpen chemistry.

Really, all that matters is that both the Sox and Yanks make it to the playoffs.

I don't care if the Yanks are the wildcard, as long as they don't have to play the Angels in the first round.

But I'd sure love to see the Yanks pull out the division title.

2 behind in the loss column.

 

[BeanoNYC]

It's still mathematically possible for the yanks to win he division and the Sox to be knocked out of the wildcard.

I don't want to see that...Yanks/Sox playoff baseball is the best.
