Wake me up when September ends

Red Sox win, Rays lose. Alright, give me some more of that please. The longest month in baseball is off to a great start for Sox fans. Joe Maddon has been around long enough to know that 17 road games will be testing his Rays to see if they have what it takes to win the AL East. I just don't see it, a team does not go from perennial loser to division champ in one season. There is a natural progression and order to things. The Wild Card is the future of that franchise, coupled with a trip to the West Coast to play LAA. This has been my contention from the beginning of the season and it must come true or I will have to live with Adam reminding me i was wrong over and over again. I am going to close my eyes and get some rest now. Wake me when the Playoffs start.
