    Break out the brooms. From what I read Buchholz was throwing some pretty decent gas (94-96mph range). With half the starters not playing it was nice to get a win, albeit against a terrible Rangers team...
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    Lugo must have heard all the Lowrie fans calling for him to be replaced. He went 4 for 4.

    Not that he's going anywhere with that gigantic contract.
    It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.

    5 in-a-row and red hot, nice to be out front & set the tone for the division.

    setting the tone is what it's all about. couldn't catch today's game (had a math final) but the highlight's looked pretty good. not much video from Boston's pitching so I'm guessing Buchholz was solid.

    Another come from behind by the Sox last night against the Angels. Ellsbury with 2 HRs. Seems like somebody different comes through every day. Six in a row. Pedroia is leading the league in batting.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    You're right.

    I mean the Sox didn't take sole control of first last year until 4/18/07 and led the rest of the way.

    This year they took first on 4/17. Hopefully it will be another great summer for Beantown.

    Glad you agree that pennants are won in April. ;)

    Streak ends at 6. Hopefully everybody can recover from the flu soon. Masterson goes tonight against the California Angels...er...Anaheim Angels...er...the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim...

    It must be a really nasty flu bug. I've never heard of 3 starters in a row getting scratched because of the flu before.

    The kid is looking good so far.

    I love how the Red Sox actually have a farm system now.

    Bullpen blew up last night. This flu thing is really hurting us right now. Can we at least have one guy in the rotation make a start soon?

    Damn It! The RAYS are playing like the devil....a pain in the ass. I almost drove up to see this game in Tampa and I'm so glad I didn't to see a shutout against Beckett. They're I think a half game out of first.

    Finally a day of rest tomorrow and a much needed one.

    I'm glad they get a day off today. Swept by the Rays. Not good. The Rays are much better than most expected but the Sox shouldn't have been swept.

    they Rays are much better than people give them credit for ... *lots* of good young hitting and pitching ...

    not happy the sox got swept, but, I've got James Shields in every roto league I'm in ... he's a top notch starter.

    it's a new week for the sox .... while Detroit's been quite improved and the Sox always struggle in Minnesotahope, hopefully they can 4 or 5 of 7 this week ... .

    For sure ... What a gross five games it had been. I know the Rays deserve more credit than they get, but I think it must be conceded that the Sox were slumping badly.
    Hopefully, said slump is over.

    I was at the Marlins game tonight, and kept an eye on the game's score on the scoreboard. could've sworn the board was broken after it was still 0-0 in the 9th. glad to see a win in a pitcher's duel.

    Another great last inning win for the Sox. Pitching has been great the last week. Only a matter of time till the hitters come around.

    Sox -12 Rays- 4. We had our hitting shoes on last night 12 runs on 15 hits. We made Shields look pathetic.

    Kazmir's first start of 08 should be a good matchup vs Lester.
