This is Mahalo's playoff coverage page for the Boston Red Sox.
The Red Sox are the defending 2007 World Series Champions.
The Red Sox have enjoyed several successful seasons under skipper Terry Francona. The stigma of the Red Sox curse has faded as the franchise has won two World Series championships, one in 2004 and the other in 2007.
But in 2008, the Red Sox entered the post season with several question marks. Ace Curt Schilling was unavailable for the 2008 playoffs and offensively the Red Sox traded away slugger and post season star Manny Ramirez.
Protecting David Ortiz in the line-up now becomes the duty of Kevin Youkilis and the newly acquired Jason Bay.
The Red Sox starting rotation consists of post season star Josh Beckett and playoff tested starters Daisuke Matsuzaka, Paul Byrd and Jon Lester.
The Red Sox bullpen includes post season star Hideki Okajima and young set-up man Justin Masterson. The pen is still anchored by all-star closer Jonathan Papelbon.MLB.com: No Manny? No matter

@RealSkipBayless In the end, Dallas will end up just like your Red Sox- out of the playoffs watching the Eagles celebrate a championship

@Sportschix1 Its going to be very tough for Rays to make playoffs, Have to beat out either Red Sox or Yankees to have a chance.
@armadillosports | November 09, 2009 04:22 AM -
Riglo, I'm sure Red Sox will make some moves to get back in the playoffs. They already made 1, but not for pitching.
@stick4gm | November 08, 2009 07:14 AM -
I've decided that the #MLB needs a salary cap. As a Red Sox fan I'm tired of seeing the same teams in the playoffs.
@DJThistle | November 07, 2009 07:04 PM -
@shwen You mean the Red Sox who finished in 2nd Place and were eliminated in 1st round of playoffs
