Message: [QUOTE="huskeynut, post: 2709867, member: 750"] Both the Sox and the Yanks have some flaws. Yankee pitching, at least starting is still suspect beyond Severino. Montgomery going down with elbow issues doesn't help. We'll see how German fills in. The bullpen is improving but Betances is still inconsistent and Kanhle is not back yet. Yanks do not have a true leadoff man. On the plus side, Sanchez is starting to hit as is Stanton. The two rookies have done very well. For the Sox, Price is done as a starter. This is the third year he can't seem to deliver. Bullpen has been inconsistent. While the lineup boast some gaudy averages (Beets, Martinez, Bogaerts, Ramirez), the rest of the lineup is not that impressive. Also, not a lot of long ball punch. Both teams should battle it out until the last week of the season. Injuries to key players will be a factor. [/QUOTE]
