    Boston/New York --- Monday

    I won on the Yanks 4 straight games ... Anyone have a good reason why it can't be 5? ... I'd say the Sox should be pretty deflated by now and the Yanks should be pumped for the sweep.

    Judging by the lolli-pops Wells was serving up last time out against Detroit, i think you might be right.

    Agreed. The Sox knowing that they are, at the very least as a result of this weekend series, going to be down -3 even if they win today should be demoralizing.

    Kick em while they are down. Eat the chalk and play the Yankees.

    Im actually looking for Boston to win at least 1 gm.
    I think we have to see the lineups before betting on this game...

    it's hard to beat a team 5 games in a row, but this red sox team is starting to show signs of giving up.

    here's the latest consensus numbers on this game:

    Yankees (C Lidle) vs Red Sox (D Wells)(ESPN2)
    Red Sox 59.83%
    Yankees 40.17%
    I'm surprised they never let varitek call the game from the dugout.

    Based on the lineups I think Boston is the side today

    I was just checking out that lineup card today. i think the x-factor is gonna be Fasano catching this game today.

    What was the closing total? I never would have guessed this game would be low scoring despite the lineup changes.

    Red Sox offense is really struggling right now.
    Cant imagine what they will do if Manny's injury is serious.
    Tough loss for Boston today. To be swept by the Yanks at home in a 5 gm series...
    They're done man!!

    I thought I heard something at the end of the game...some sort of singing. Probably a fat lady...
