The Red Sox starting pitching is giving some pretty good starts for the most part. Beckett, Lester, and Buchholz deserved better fates than they got. I would LOVE to see this starting 3 in the Postseason reak havoc.
The Bullpen is doing a good job (for the most part) in holding games together for the sox. In the last week, they've held it together in a 13-inning game, spun 7 2/3 shutout innings in a 15 inning game, and doing a fine job in most other spots. It isn't their fault that the Sox offense is MIA.
Of course, these things mean nothing if the Offense can't buy a run, and the Sox are Letting washed up has-beens keep losing games for them.
IT's not quite panic button time just yet, however if the Sox don't figure it out quickly and start playing solid baseball again they are going to piss away the WC as fast as they pissed away the AL East lead.
I have faith in them. I KNOW they can do it. But the time has come for them to produce and stop feeling sorry for themselves; Either they are a team that can play through the adversity, or they are just a team that cant get their shit together like everyone else.
