4:31 — NESN keeps marketing this Fenway Brick, the first product marketed specifically in the hope that girlfriends and wives might mistakenly buy it for their man even though we definitely don't want one. Ladies, trust me, that Fenway Brick is going in your man's garage or attic within two weeks. Speaking of bad purchases, Carl Crawford just flied out to end the top of the second.

Lol

God job Walt and Dusty. You went from being division winner to finishing under .500 and watching 2 central teams make the playoffs.

Next time you might actually want to acquire talent and start talented players. I hate seeing people tear it up in the minors to not be called up or sit behind Edgar Renteria.

No you don't you motherfucker, Phillies are the dream team #2, frontrunning wire to wire.

[fren.]

Six starts by a lefty in a seven game series favors the Yankee offense quite substantially.

I'm ok with the Cards or DBacks

[Penthesilea]

I'm ok with the Phillies

[Bregor]

I'm rooting for the Rays all the way, but I think it will be Detroit from the AL. Still think Phillies win it all. Just dear God, not the Yankees or the Cardinals. Or the Rangers. I was tricked into rooting for the Mavs... Never again, Texas...

[Bregor]

Foxsports.com and ESPN reporting Terry Francona's option will not be picked up.
