Quick hit on the Yankees-Sox series.

For Red Sox fans: The New York Yankees sweep over the Boston Red Sox which concluded with the Yanks comeback should not be considered an updated version of the Boston Massacre. During the four game series, the Bombers outscored the Sox 25-8. They held the Sox scoreless for over 30 innings straight at one point, including a near no-no by CC. AJ Burnett silenced the bats, but honestly, the Sox were slumping anyways.

For Yankee fans: 31-10 in your last 41 games? That's ridiculous. They have been on a tear which is unheard of since A-Rod came back. Remember a few years ago when he was the greatest choke artist? I don't care if it's April, August or October, you hit a walk off against the Red Sox in the bottom of the 15th in a pivotal series - you're clutch. Mark Tex is the reason this defense is any good. With no stats other than this writers eyes to back this up, but I'd say a good 10% of the throws he fields would have gotten by Giambi - now unemployed. All in all the starting pitching looks brilliant, the team is hitting on all cylinders - from small ball to mammoth home runs, and the bullpen is holding their leads.
