Where does ESPN find these guys? On baseball tonight they just asked Dusty Baker about whether or not it is important for the Yankees to win the divison. He went on to say that it was more important for the Red Sox to win because, "They have not won the AL East since 1998". First that is just flawed logic. Second, it was 1995! I wish it was 1998, but that year the Yankees won 114 games and finished 22 games ahead the Sox! AND NOBODY CORRECTED HIM!!!!
Literally while I was writing this about Baker, Eduardo Perez, yup the former Devil Ray great, said that Josh Beckett would not win the Cy Young because, "He threw 113 pitches over 6 innings and that will not cut it. He only has 19 wins, he needs more." Once again, flawed very stupid logic, but he has 20 wins now. AND NOBODY CORRECTED HIM!!!! The four letter network strikes again.
On a happy side note...Eric Gagne came in when the Sox were winning and did not allow a run. His stats now when entering the game and Sox are winning... 8 games, 14 runs, ERA 15.75. Much better.
