I agree about Boston, but they have to get past Anaheim first. That might be one of the best post-season match-ups this year. Angels are up 5-4 against the Red Sox in '09, so it's evenly matched. Both teams want the WS; we'll see who wants it most, I guess.

After last night's loss, the Red Sox are now tied with the Yankees 9-9 for the season, so I definitely think it's possible for the Red Sox to take all. And you're right--in the post-season, the Red Sox have the definite edge and I think Francona definitely has it over Girardi. Let's hope history repeats itself with the Yankee's lack of post-season production. Teixeira is a factor as the AL HR leader, although he's mostly untested in the post-season.
