06:40 AM ET 09.06 | When Josh Beckett walked slowly off the mound in the fourth inning favoring his right ankle yesterday, did any hope of the Red Sox advancing deep into the postseason go with him? The Sox will send their best starting pitcher back to Boston this morning to get checked by a specialist and determine the extent of the injury he suffered while throwing a pitch to Toronto's Brett Lawrie. Beckett said the sensation in his foot was unlike anything he had felt before. For now, the team is describing it as a sprained ankle.

No, that's the promise necklace Pedroia gave him. But remember, a necklace is not jewelry.

The similarities to 2004 are not reassuring to me.
(1) Yanks have one reliable starter (Mussina 2004/CC 2011) and a bunch of question marks.
(2) The Sox have a nasty one/two in their rotation but one, the guy with the big game rep, has an ankle problem late in the season.
(3) The Yanks lead the league in runs scored.
(4) The one who was suppossed to be the Yanks #2 is a head case who probably shouldn't be on the roster (Burnett 2011, Brown/Vasquez take your pick 2004).
