Im not talking about making it into the playoffs, right now that is the last thing on my mind.  I wanna know if you guys think these Red Sox have what it takes to empty the benches against the Yankees.  I know Trot, Gabe, Damon, Bellhorn are all gone, so I dunno.  Do this new group of guys, Youk, Pedroia, Bay, Drew have the stones to go out into the middle of the Infield and mix things up?  After they threw at Dusty last night I think they gotta do something.  When you look at the ammount of guys that got thrown at on the Red Sox as compared the Yankees its just nuts. 

I know they cant do anything in the begining of the game tonight because we can't risk Beckett getting tossed or worse suspended.  But years ago, the Arod-Vtek fight woke up the sox and changed things, Does this team have the stones to do the same thing?

  • Yup
The times have certainly changed.  Pedroia had the perfect opportunity for a nice take out at 2nd base after he got hit...Maybe the game was such a blowout that they didn't care.
Yup

Supposedly he yelled out at the guy, "Thats two **** times!"  And the pitcher that hit him he used to rock at Arizona State
