You have the largest division lead in baseball, and it's not even close. Calm yourself.

8)

If you told me on April 1st that the Red Sox would have a 8 game lead in mid to late July I would have jumped for joy. Whats the problem?

LOL... should have kept the OP.

the same story every single season.

The same, forlorn saga repeats itself...

The Red Sox ALWAYS begin the season on a bright note

But the lead gets tapped into slowly and slowly as the season progresses, and come August-September, the Yankees, like always, will prevail.

Fire Terry.

Trade JD and Julio.

What a dump in the pants this team is.

They do have the best record in Major League Baseball, ya know? The Yankees are a real good team and in order to run away with the division, we'd need to play .700+ baseball all year--- something totally unrealistic.

The Yankees were going to make a run and more than likely, it was going to be on this stretch where they face crap team after crap team. They are playing real well and the division is far from over. Their soft schedule ends in a few days and we'll see if they keep up this torrid pace they are on when they face contenders.

I just don't see how you can complain about the Red Sox performance when they are on a 95ish win pace and have the best record in baseball. If you thought they'd continue to play .725 baseball like they were at the beginning of the year, you were setting yourself up for disappointment. Teams go through slumps and no one is going to run away with the division when you have a team playing the way the Yankees are playing.

I like the part where he just makes **** up.

"The Red Sox ALWAYS (sic) begin the season on a bright note"

No, they don't, guy.

Remember like two+ years ago when they won that Championship thingy? Remember how, like, this team is different from the one last year (significantly so) and, like, what the 2006 Red Sox did has no significance on this year? Like, and, how, like, the Yankees are dramatically different and stuff.

And how there is a 5+ game lead right now and stuff. The Red Sox have the best pitching staff in baseball and one of the three best offenses. This is a recipe for? Yes, you guessed it! Success. Congratulations, you are smarter than Greener Pastures (significantly so).

"Fire Terry"

You literally can't be serious. Francona is the best manager I've seen in the 15 years I've been following the Red Sox. And I don't think anyone liked the managers who preceded him. Remember Grady Little? Jimy Williams, Kevin Kennedy, Butch Hobson, Joe Morgan? I don't think anyone really liked any of these managers and Grady Little might be the worst manager I've ever seen since, not counting that stiff the Orioles fired this year.

"Trade JD and Julio."

No. Julio Lugo sucks balls, but you can't trade him. JD Drew I still have a lot of faith in. He's not a .250 hitter and he's still getting on base. I don't know what is up with the power, but you'd be **** (Please Use More Appropriate Word) to trade him because you'd have to absorb so much of his salary.

"What a dump in the pants this team is."

Just shut up already. No team in baseball has a higher winning percentage.

Someone is having a pretty boring summer. What's this your 100th attention whore post so far? Go make some friends, maybe get a girlfriend or something... something other then sitting infront of your computer trying to get some excitment out of a message board. I think you celticshistorylesson, malle, and celticthug should get eachothers numbers.. maybe hang out and talk about how boring your lives are.
