Lets hope Halladay is a playoff stud like Lee

Add that to Andy Pettite who's not getting any younger and it could end up dooming them this year.

Red Sox are pretty much officially out of the Bay chase, and that really stinks because they need hitters, specifically power hitters. They arent going to beat the Yankees with singles! I like their pitching rotation slightly better than the Yankees but not enough to think at this point they are any better than a 2nd place team. As far as Joba goes, I think hes a better reliever. I dont think he has the temperment to be a starter and you take away his raw power of just coming in and throwing 15-20 pitches and he becomes incredibly average.
