Tampa completed the sweep today. The sox lead is down to 3.5 games over Tampa in the wild card and they have 4 more games against them this week. Should be a good series.

 

[BleedsOrange44]

Too many injuries. They have no pitching anymore.

 

[690West]

Would be crazy if Tampa comes all the way back and catches the sox

 

[Orangeyes]

Rays close in on wild card lead

 

[BleedsOrange44]

Wouldn't be that crazy. Think about what pitchers the Red Sox are missing right now:

Josh Beckett
Clay Bucholz
Daisuke Matsuzaka

Those three starters are out, so instead they have to pitch Tim Wakefield, and Andrew Miller twice a week. Neither is even average at this point. Wake is better served as a reliever, and Miller is just not good at all. That combined with Lackey being terrible, and the Red Sox have one reliable starter right now. Lester.

The test will be later this week when the Sox and Rays meet in Fenway for a 4 game set. The Sox need to AT LEAST split to take the pressure off. Otherwise, they are in deep trouble.

Rays can also catch the Yankees who are also banged up and not playing well. Yanks have 10 left with Red Sox (3) and Rays (7) including the last 3 in Tampa.
