Should Be An Interesting Day
The Angels outscored the Sox by 11 runs this weekend, capping off the series with a 10-4 win. The Sox and Angels threw their best at one another this weekend, and Boston lost badly.
No sense drawing grandiose conclusions and doing something silly because of one weekend but certainly the trade the Yankees pulled off yesterday, acquiring Bobby Abreu and Cory Lidle for four Minor League prospects (none of whom named Hughes or Duncan), should make the Sox think long and hard about what they are going to do. The Bombers are a lot better this morning than they were when I woke up yesterday.
Oh and wouldn’t it be great if Trot Nixon could keep his hustling, dirt-dog ass on the field? If only he had Manny Ramirez’s desire, ability to stay in shape and willingness to play through pain to help his ‘mates out.

Great blog. Can’t believe I haven’t been over here before.
Look forward to it becoming part of my daily routine.

Thanks Kent.
This deadline business is stressful, no?
