Man, that Boston! Another win against a hapless Padres team. Better start printing those playoff tickets at Fenway--they have an outside shot at 60 wins by the All-Star Break.
As I've said before--we(and other teams) will have to settle for a wild card--Boston's not giving up the AL East, especially with that talent there. Who knew getting the high paid cancers of Youkilis, A-Gone, Crawford and Beckett made the team a lot better?
Shows that Boston is better with developing its own talent rather than overpaying on high level(Josh Hamilton, Zack Grienke, etc.) They've been better by signing mid-level free agents(without compensation) to help their core.
