New Poll Question:
After the worst of all possible outcomes from the most critical six game road stretch of the season, where do you think the Red Sox playoff chances stand now?

  • Only 6.5 back with 6 left to go against New York. I can still taste the division.
  • We’re still tied for the Wild Card lead, just get us in the door and Beckett/Lester will close it in October.
  • We’ll find a way in, but we are not a World Series caliber team.
  • Did someone mention football season? The free fall out of the playoff race has begun.
Color me as shocked as anyone that this team went all “2006” on us despite brilliant outings from Josh Beckett and Jon Lester when they had to have them. So where do you see 2009 ending up?
As always, new poll is up to the right…vote away and argue it out in the comments.

Previous Poll Results:
What is your reaction to David Ortiz’ inclusion on the 2003 positive PED test list?

I’ll be fair here and bite the bullet for not including a “David Ortiz never took steroids” or “it was only vitamins and supplements” line in last weeks poll. But as you can see, most of Red Sox Nation is ready to move on regardless what David actually did, as long as he owns up to his actions.
