• I am definitely not a fan of the resurgence of the phrase "Beat L.A." amongst Red Sox fans.

• Massacre Boston is my phrase for the first week of the playoffs.
  
  I\'m going to hang out with some Red Sox fans tonight.
  
  Mission=annoy and make them cry
  
  Hamels and the Phillies take game 1 versus the Brewers. I don\'t think any of these games go past 5.

• My faith is renewed, what a well played game from both ends.  Great pitchers battle, till the end of the game.  Lester looked phenomenal as he has all season.  
  
  Let\'s go Sox!!!

  100% agree.
  
  Also, "Beat LA" has to be the worst chant ever.

• Dodgers looked good yesterday.
  
  Did anyone else witness Manny running an infield grounder out and getting to the bag safely?

  that is the 2nd Dodger game I watched this year where Manny was running down the first baseline compared to the Boston Strut.
  
  The first time I saw Manny try was after laying down a bunt and running it out.
  
  He has worked well in LA.

  it\'s unfortunate that he became such a lazy player that the sox were forced to get rid of him while still paying his salary for the rest of this year

• I think last night couldn\'t have illustrated the Manny-Bay trade being win-win for all parties any better.
  
  That being said I refuse to talk about anything else playoffs. I will go continue to craft my noose.

  The pitching matchups for the first three games of the Cubs/Dodgers series:
  
  Dempster vs. Lowe
  Zambrano vs. Billingsley
  Harden vs. Kuroda
  
  The Cubs aren\'t a lock by any means, but I don\'t know how anyone could pick the Dodgers given that information alone.

  BUMP... just in case anybody was wondering why I still work in collegiate volleyball instead of working for Baseball Tonight.
