Pitching isn't this team's problem. They aren't getting any clutch hitting. The HR's for Manny and Ortiz are way down from last year and the team is hitting .219 with men in scoring position since early June. Nobody's gonna win much with those numbers.
They won't get rid off Dice-K. I give him the benefit of the doubt this year. Beckett had everyone talking last year about it being a lousy trade, but it looks pretty good now. One thing I have to say about getting rid of good players who go on to have success elsewhere is that Clemens needed to go. When they let him go he was basically a .500 pitcher the last 3 years he was here. I thought at the time it was a good move. I don't think anyone could have predicted what he would do later on.
