    "built to win"

    Backed into a great team via years of WTF trades, Why the hell signings and dumb luck.

    Angels with a HR baby! Josh Beckett one of the greatest playoff pitchers of all time? lol, give me a dang break!

    Red Sox are lucky to be in this game, thats all I gotta say.

    The defending world champions are lucky to be in the ALDS, up 2 games to 0 and tied 3-3 in the 3rd inning.

    What?

    Are you from planet earth? Do you have any fucking idea what you are talking about?

    TampaBayJetsFan85 easily knows the least about baseball of anyone I've ever encountered. No contest.

    Admit you been wrong about this Rays team in 2008. I thought they were going to fall apart like the Brewers of last year, lol. Tool.

    The Angels are about to get into the Sox bullpen before the 6th inning! Bad news for Boston

    There's a HUGE difference in being wrong about a perfectly reasonable prediction that was made based on a comparison to a recent team and with the facts in mind (facts such as nearly identical statistical rankings between the two teams) and being wrong about elementary principles of baseball like you often are. I can't see the future, but I'd make the same comparison every single time.

    What kind of comparison would you make with the Red Sox bullpen this year? I would say maybe the Rays bullpen of 07? Maybe not that bad, but how bad would you say?

    I would say it was 11th best in all of baseball, because it was.

    The HBP when it gets your jersey is one of the worst rules in sports.

    Definetly stupid, but I'm glad they're not giving Napoli a pitch to hit.

    Well, you also know nothing about the game of baseball, so that doesn't really mean anything.

    How? Players can wear larger jerseys and hug the plate, and it effectivly eliminates the inner half of the plate because the batters jersey might get dirty.

    Well...He wasn't really all that clutch tonight but he pitched well because he kept his team in the game. If not for that horrid defense by the Angels with the bases loaded and two outs...
