Posted by Erin Bruehl: The Red Sox may have won again but as much as I dislike the Yankees, it is hard to think too much of their losses. Ten games into the season and two losses to the BoSox is not going to break the Yanks' season. As my best friend put it one day, that's the beauty of the 162-game schedule - a few games early on are not going to make or break you, in comparison to lose two football games (a la my beloved NY Giants did again and again this past season) and it could mean being shut out of the playoffs. The long schedule is conducive to the best team really winning - the long season balances out. Weaknesses will be exposed by midseason and we'll see how Boston's bullpen holds up... as well as the Yanks' starting rotation...

And we'll see if the Mets can reach .500.... but not if they keep losing to the freakin' Pirates...
