Wakefield's Return

I (along with many Sox fans) am extremely excited for tonight’s game, the reason being Wakefield is back! 11-3 record before the all star break (an an all star for the first time) Wakefield was the most dependable pitcher in the first half of the season and his return couldn’t have been at a better time. Hopefully Wakefield can pitch like he did before and help a rotation that badly needs another quality starter. So far the Sox have a 1 ½ game lead over the Rangers in the Wild card and trail 6 games in the AL East. It’s weird I was actually cheering for the Yankees to win, I mean face it there is no way the Sox can win the division (unless there is an impressive flip between them and the Yankees) but they defiantly have a shot at the WC so the Yankees better beat the Rangers. Anyway with the return of Wakefield and the awaited return of Dice-K I hope the rotation will be as good as I hoped for the rest of the season. GO RED SOX!
