The Red Sox clearly have enough talent on the team to get right back into it despite the terrible start to the season . . . but it's difficult not to wonder if the paper-thin, inconsistent bull-pen is not too much of a liability for them to seriously contend in September and October.

Good to hear that Pedroia's injury isn't that bad.

Really loving this stretch of 12-2 in the last 14.  Bats are hot and pitching has been outstanding.  Tim Wakefield is ageless.  Crawford is on a tear in the 6-spot.  Just what I needed to get past the C's playoff end.

Doesn't surprise me.  Everyone who thought they were done early were ignoring just how long the baseball season is. 

It doesn't mean they won't tank later, but even now, they aren't even 40% of the way done yet.

He's got screws in his ankle til next season.  It's going to a long season for Pedroia, but he'll tough it out.

We're rolling now.  Can Lackey and Dice-K stay on the DL forever?  I really like Aceves.  He's a good spot starter, solid bull pen guy.  Though I don't think he's a career starter, I'd rather have him then Dice-K or Lackey.

Since the 2-10 start they may be playing their best ball since 2004. This team is just dominant right now and is starting to live up to all the hype they were receiving nationally before the season.

We are truly blessed here in Boston with our sports teams since 2000. I am not sure ANY town has had such a sustained run of sports excellence in their town across all four major sports before.

Well lucky for us, in baseball they are allowed to buy up all the best players.

The Red Sox really look great right now.  It concerns me somewhat that they are winning mostly with hitting and not pitching, though.  I still think the end of the rotation and the bullpen are fairly large question marks for the Red Sox.  But there's not much to complain about, anyway.

I can't wait to see the Red Sox play a really tough pitching team. We play the Phillies on the 28th, and I assume we'll see Halladay & Co.

The back of the rotation and the bullpen are questions for literally every team. If your constants are offense, defense and the top of your rotation...youre doing okay.

How awesome is Gonzalez!

Really nice job by the Sox taking 2 out of 3 in Tampa facing some quality pitching for the first time in a while.

Anyone watch the game tonight. It's the first time I've been able to tune in live for a little bit. John Lackey actually looked pretty good as did Adrian Gonzalez and co.
