Statement 2 both the Red Sox and Indians will have a record of 94-68 if they each win one game this weekend...how is the Wild Card determined?
Statement 3 If the Yankees take 2 of 3 they win the East...if the Sox take 2 of three they force a 1 game playoff in the Bronx Monday afternoon.

Carl Everett and Paul Konerko have been knocking the snot outta the ball lately.
Scotty Pods just went 4 for 4 and is looking good again.
I will enjoy this weekend. The survivors will be in no shape to battle the West or Central champs. :boink:
