They looked like the Red Sox, but they sure didn't play like them.
(Though I'll give Manny credit; that was a HELL of a catch he made today.)

I may be giving them too many breaks, but they have been incredibly beat up lately. The freakin plague that went through the clubhouse, then a bunch of nagging injuries (seriously, they were on their 8th choice for an outfielder last night) and playing something like 29 games in 30 days. Shoot, they were playing without their freakin manager for the whole Balt. series. I know most teams have to deal with a lot of this, but I do feel like the ship will be righted and they will get some good pitching and timely hitting, and hopefully keep half the team off the DL (for crying out loud, Buckholtz is seriously on the DL for a fingernail?!)
