OK, Boston fans, it's now rock-and-a-hard-place time. With the Yankee win this afternoon, and the Red Sox loss, New York's magic number is down to five. Meanwhile, the BoSox are only 1 1/2 ahead of the Rays for the wildcard, and just one in the loss column. Yanks and Rays have 7 games head-to-head coming.

It seems unlikely that Boston can take the AL East at this point, and in fact are more likely to lose out of the playoffs entirely than the former. So, do you bite the bullet and root root root for the hated Yankees, or does your destestation seep so deeply you'd sooner cut your noses off to spite your face?

Hey, I'm not tweaking you just to get a rise . . . well, maybe a little :D . . . but am genuinely curious to know.

Go Rays!!!!! My playoff ticket money is due Wednesday and you damn RedSox couldn't make my decision any easier!!!

I hope they fall on their faces, I want Theo and Francona gone.
Theo has pissed away hundreds of millions of dollars on bad signings,and were stuck with Carl Crawford, John Lackey, forget about J D Drew in the last year of his contract and just won't play anymore.
Screw baseball,the Pats are hot and the Bruins are in training camp.
I fell off the band wagon months ago.

If the Red Sox aren't playing, there is no baseball, for me at least. I don't root for other teams, anymore than I would switch my allegiance to another country. I am a complete baseball partisan. I love the Sox, all other teams...well, you know.

I will cheer for any team but the Yankees. Not sure who I despise more, the Yankees or the Jets.

Then be sure to send a bouquet to Evan Longoria. :r

Francona should be done today as being reported? I wanted him gone for a few years know.

Lets hope Theo is gone too the sox have to change the culture of this team.

A new broom sweeps clean :D

Chicago Sun-Times is reporting that Francona will ask the Red Sox NOT to exercise their contract option for him next year.

Be careful what you wish for ... you may just get it.

Francona is a great manager and If he doesn't stay with Boston I'm sure he'll be successful wherever he winds up. Just out of curiosity who would you like to replace him with?

The way I see it; if Tito leaves Boston, I don't think we'll ever see another World Series Championship in our lifetime.

Re: Red Sox Nation -Check In
 
Both the Nationals and White Sox need a coach for next year, maybe Tito wants a change of scenery. That would be huge though, who could fill those shoes?

Now there's the question. With all the superstar talent on this team, and maybe a couple prima-donnas thrown in for good measure, we're going to need someone Torre-esque.

I hope he doesn't leave, but if he does, he'll be unemployed for all of 10 minutes.

And I know I'll be one of the ones cheering him when he returns to Fenway with his new team. The man did a lot more than people give him credit for, and I'm not excited about the post-Francona era.

Any Sox fan who wants to lay this at the feet of Tito is delusional!
How quick fans forget the 86 years without a championship.
Tito delivered two in the last 8!
Scapegoating the manager is common practice, and Yankee fans are guilty of it too.
When Torre left, there was more than a small contingent of Yankee fans who were happy about it.
Torre, like Tito had his flaws, but they weren't the reasons for the team not winning championships.
Like Vin said, be careful what you wish for!

RIdiculous. What a horrible, short sighted decision.
