Musings, Nits, and Praises

I know it's bad of me to wish Eric Gagne would suffer an unspecified and injury and be place on the DL indefinitely, but I can't help thinking it would help the team. Of course, scoring some runs off the other teams' so-so pitchers would also help. I knew the Sox' big lead early in the season wouldn't last. But even with the Yankees' hot streak, if the Sox hadn't stunk for the past two months (only three games over .500 since June 1st), they'd be coasting to a division title. Instead, they seem to invent new ways to blow games. I'm anticipating yelling at the TV quite a bit when they play the Yankees at the end of this month.
