Its going to be a challenge and the first thing they need to do is take the weekend series against the Yankees.
Stranger things have happened, in 2004, who would have thought we could have come back from 0-3 down in the postseason, winning 4 straight, 2 in NY? Granted, this year's team is better for NY and not as good for Boston, but you never know Mike. Lost of time remaining on the clock to make up 3 games against a team you have 9 left with.
The Red Sox have the talent, they are just playing like crap. Its the same team that went on an eleven game win streak in June/July so it is possible things will turn for the better.
I do believe the White Sox are the team to beat and if its them the Red Sox have to chase in the Wildcard, then its a division title or nothing.
