    I thought I saw last night, that, if the Sox were the Wild Card, playing the Angels ... they would only need 3 starters in the first series ... as Game 1 is next Wednesday.

    If they came in 1st and faced the AL Central winner, they'd need a 4th starter as Game 1 is next Thursday.

    If they did need a 4th starter, I'd say they'd go with Byrd.

    That is up to the Angels, as the #1 seed (unless TB catches them), they will get to choose whether the series starts on Wed or Thurs.

    Congrats Tampa! You were unstoppable.

    But watch out in the playoffs. It's a whole different game.

  • Congratulations to Tampa. No bones about it you deserve the division.

    Also, let's all dance in delight that the Yankees are out of the postseason. This means that I won't have to hear about Jeter"s leadership ability as he hits .156 in a postseason exit lasting 4 games.

    The playoffs look fun, 3 strong teams and one dangerous Central team. The AL is the best league, and these teams should be battle tested.

    However, should the Sox fall, I will be rooting for the cubbies. Even if Eddie wasn't a fan. I think all Boston fans can relate to them amongst all other teams.

    Agreed on all points.

    The Rays proved to be quite a team, never folding even when they were hit with injury.

    We had our chances to take the division but they held us off.

    The AL is strong.

    I feel the Sox are the 3rd best team going in, BUT we have experience, and three STUD pitchers to get us through a short series.

    Could see any of the 4 making it to the World Series.

    Hope the Cubbies play the Sox, that would be awesome.

    AND if it's not the Sox. Go Cubs. Knowing how it feels to be without for so long, I would love to see their true fans win a ring.

    Congrats to the RAYS they've great this season so far, post season is a whole other story.

    My prediction is a Red Sox/Cubs World Series and the Cubs taking the whole thing. Not rooting against the Sox I just feel this is the Cubs year.

    Well then again Terry Francona hasn't lost a game in the WS so if the Cubbies get there like predicted they probably won't even win a game.

    Feel better. :)

    well, a walk off win against the Yankees ain't a bad way to end the regular season now, is it?

    The Red Sox have set their initial roster for the first round of the playoffs
    and there are no real surprises. The Sox are carrying 10 pitchers and 15
    positional players; Mike Timlin is off and third catcher David Ross is on. Mike
    Lowell and J.D. Drew are both expected to be in the starting lineup tonight for
    Game 1 of the American League Division Series against the Los Angeles Angels.

    Really, Timlin is off the roster? I didn't see that. Thank GOD! Mind you, he was huge in 04, but if I had to sit through one of his appearance again I might have to start on anti-anxiety medication.
    I hold the pain, release me!
