Spence, the Reds are still hanging in there, I think they lead the wildcard right now. You don't think they'll fold, do you? I think they might've gave up too much in that Nationals deal, but hey, that was the price demanded. I think they have enough in the tank to challenge for the NL Central the rest of the way, what say you?

They have a chance. They have gotten better starting pitching then I expected. They still have plenty of issues though, we'll see.

I'm really hoping the Red Sox get in too. I don't like the White Sox (mainly because they're division rivals, Ozzie Guillen is a little out there, A.J. Pierzynski is a moron, and I don't care for any of their other players besides Thome and Dye) or the Twins (they're really annoying me lately ).

Well, hey, you guys are only 3 games out of the A.L. East race. Boston has enough talent to make the playoffs. A sweep by the Royals must be not going over to well in New England, huh? Royals are playing better though than when they started this season.

We start a big series against the Chicago White Sox. I'm pretty nervous because we still haven't done to well against real competition. We caught the Twins when they were mediocre, we're 2-5 against New York and Boston, and we've lost a couple to Oakland.

Well, we're ailing. It won't be long before the Tigers are playing for the wildcard
