That was then...
Last year's ALDS series between the Red Sox and Angels featured some late-inning heroics from Manny Ramirez and was capped by a champagne celebration for the Red Sox. But things sure have changed. Manny's gone, but Youk, Pedroia and Bay have stepped up in his place. The Angels have some fresh faces in the lineup (Hunter, Teixeira) and the bullpen (Arredondo, Jepsen) as well as a big advantage in the season series. The Globe's Nick Cafardo breaks down the latest clash between the teams, and we let you decide who has the edge.
