    Nor is Big Papi/Pedey/Ellsbury/Bard/Papelbon,etc.etc.
    In October, it's another season and none of the above teams scare me. Beckett and Lester have been there before and will be unfazed by playoff pressure. Our front two are among the best in MLB. So bring any of the pretenders on; they aren't getting past the Sox.

    Josh Beckett and Jon Lester rank 12th and 17th among American League starters this season in Wins Above Replacement (22nd and 34th among all MLB starters):

    The Tigers and the Rangers are well-represented in the WAR rankings of AL starters. CC Sabathia, Colby Lewis and C.J. Wilson have more recent postseason experience than Beckett and Lester, while Justin Verlander has postseason experience as well.

    Seems like the Sox are stinkers at the moment.

    I think that there are a few AL contenders but I don't see how you can count the Phillies out.

    You redeem my failing trust.  Not in the Sox, but some of their "fans."

    Thank you.
