by tito crafts | Aug 23, 2009 | Boston Red Sox, C.C. Sabathia, Game Threads, Josh Beckett, New York Yankees

CC Sabathia takes on Josh Beckett.tonight in the rubber game of the series. The Yankees could put the division away, or they could let the Red SOx linger around in the distance, giving them a slight chance.

8/21: Penny vs. Pettitte

by tito crafts | Aug 21, 2009 | Andy Pettitte, Boston Red Sox, Brad Penny, Game Threads, New York Yankees

The Red Sox look to get back into the division race this weekend. Making the playoffs is most important, but the division would be great to take.

The Sox look for the sweep.

8/19: Buchholz takes on third straight ace.

by tito crafts | Aug 19, 2009 | Boston Red Sox, Clay Buchholz, Game Threads, Roy Halladay, Toronto Blue Jays

Roy Halladay, current ace, takes on potential future ace, Clay Buchholz. Buchholz has been drawing aces for the past three starts now. Before this, he faced off with CC Sabathia and Justin Verlander, losing both games, but pitching decent...

Thanks, Brad Penny. But it may be time to move on.

by tito crafts | Aug 17, 2009 | Boston Red Sox, Brad Penny, Daisuke Matsuzaka, Junichi Tazawa, Michael Bowden, Tim Wakefield

When injuries arise, solutions aren’t always easy to come by. So with Wakefield and Daisuke sidelined, and with the Red Sox hesitant to promote Michael Bowden, there may not be many of those “solutions” available. Yet, I shall try. But Brad Penny...

8/16: …
