We're down 2-0 in a best-of-5 series. Not much to feel good about, so I'll do my best to avoid being too depressing--or perhaps even relevant.

Boston Herald - Pedroia talks Sox Fans Off of Ledge

It's hard to have any faith when you've gotta win 3 straight elimination games, but if any team can do it, '04 and '07 say it's the Sox.

38 Pitches - Curt Still Doesn't Like Bucknor

WEEI - Beckett doesn't either.

Tito was feeling fine before tonights game, but the nausea has reportedly returned after watching Boston's offense tonight.

WEEI - Henry Tried to Acquire Beckett, Burnett for Free

That would've been a ridiculous coup. The obvious hypothetical here is "what if we still had Hanley".

SoxProspects – Winter Leagues Underway

Why do some Winter Leagues start before Fall Leagues anyways? Oh well. There's not a lot of interesting names here. Doubront is absolutely worth paying attention to though, and if Mark Wagner does well it could go a long way towards giving him a shot going into ST next year. Alvarez is also worth a look. The real meat comes in the Arizona Fall League, though, with Iglesias, Exposito, Kalish, and Richardson all participating.

Oh, and Casey Kelly too, but he's batting, so who cares?
