We have 31 games left, with seven games in the loss column.
If we screw up and lose more than we win... 15 wins, 16 losses... the Redsocks must go 24-9... a winning percentage of .727.
Their winning record thus far in the season... .565 percent.
They can still do it. (SEE: NO JINX!) But it's getting late.
Today, Boston starts a 3-game series in Baltimore. The Redsocks need a sweep. Showalter will be ovulating to beat the team that has handled Baltimore so easily in recent years. That's going to be a tough sweep.
From there, Boston goes home to face Chicago -- and Manny, who might just have another post-trade resurgence. That's going to be a tough sweep.
Then Tampa Bay visits for three.
Boston must win seven or eight out of 10.
That's a tough stretch.
They could still do it. (SEE: NO JINX) We could collapse, especially with our starters. But do the math. Boston is screwed.

All it takes is one really bad week for us, like 2-5, and one great week for them, like 7-0, and they're right back in the race. Since October 2004 I assume nothing.
