    Kazmir (7-3, 2.63 ERA) vs. Pettitte (9-6, 4.22 ERA)
    Jackson (5-6. 4.08 ERA) vs Ponson (5-1, 4.18 ERA)

    Should be an interesting 2 game series. If the Yanks want any momentum going into the All-Star break, it needs to start with a sweep here...

    Don't feel too bad. I'm actually rooting for the Sox to win the division if the Yankees don't. I never thought I'd be able to say that. Ever.

    I actually spent the first two months of the season rooting for the Rays and feelings happy that they finally got their shit together as a franchise.

    And that got old fast, leaving me utterly confused about this series.

    I'm hoping for 2 consecutive 16 inning games that end tied and are suspended due to rain, decimating arms all around and screwing up September schedules for both teams.

    He claims he's done with the baseball section of TGG. His fanhood is a living hell, or somesuch nonsense.

    Besides, I think he's afraid Dierking is going to touch his inner child or something.

    That is just plain wrong. You are a poor excuse for a fan. You are not far enough behind the Rays to merit rooting for the Yankees.

    You know what? I can't just root for my team without being attacked?

    YANKEES (47-42)
    Cabrera CF
    Jeter SS
    Abreu RF
    Rodriguez 3B
    Posada DH
    Betemit 1B
    Cano 2B
    Molina C
    Gardner LF

    Melky batting leadoff. That's really brilliant.

    sounds retarded to me...Is Giambi still sore or tired after his day off is he hitting Lefties not so good....

    I hate having Molina in the lineup, but having posada behind the dish is a liability

    Woah. ARE YOU CHALLENGING MY FUCKING FANHOOD?!?! I've watched this Red Sox team since 1998 and its the best DEFENSIVE team I've ever seen. Exciting time to be a Sox fan.



    Seriously though, one game is enough for me. I could care less what the Yankees do as long as the Sox are in first place. So until they are, I will root for any team playing the Devil Rays, unless it's a team ahead of the Sox in the Wild Card. Plus I want the Devil Rays to lose every game from here on out. They were annoying as it was, and now I see the kind of "fans" they have.

    no problems with Molina catching tonight. Posada has been a liability throwing since his return, and Molina is leading the league in percentage and has thrown out 11 in a row. The Rays are a very fast, athletic, and aggressive team... gotta put the best arm behind the plate

    Is there a team who has a PBP guy with less of a workload than the Yankees? Kay is always missing games. The Yankees are playing the division leader, and it's Singleton and Flaherty tonight. Cohen does every game for the Mets, Orsillo does every game for the Sox.

    Just another reason YES should fire Kay.

    Everyone knew that series was over and I wanted to start the thread and have it be titled correctly. It worked out.
