Should be a good series. He was 7 for 12 against the Blue Jays. Hopefully he can carry that with him to Boston.

Yeah I know, but I will be SHOCKED if he's cheered. He's looked at like a traitor who went over to the dark side. I, of course, love it. :)

The better team won, imo.
Yes, that will be your opinion as a Boston fan.
That said, I am not in love with the Yankee team this year. But I think they improved from last year.

Yankee pitching looks a little shaky... that being said Sox pitching hasn't been that much better lately. Ortiz, once again, was the game breaker. That 3 run homer was a monster, and, outside of that one pitch, I really thought the teams were pretty evenly matched.


I'm looking forward to Sox / Yankees this year. Should be a close season series (like usual) - and I wouldn't want it any other way.

edit - also, I just wanted to say, Yankees fans be ready for Mirabelli... the guy is a beast at Yankee Stadium (bats ~ .380 there I think).

let's just say that the fans definitely did not cheer for him
