I am saying if Roberts was out, the 2004 red Sox have no chemistry. Since he was safe, they were a close knit team who won 8 in a row.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Sorry if you feel I skipped over your point. I caught your drift.
Roberts could have been out and the Red Sox could have still won that game.
Think of this though. After the 5th inning of Game 1 against the Dodgers last year, we were done for the series. We didn't even try afterwards.
Boston got their asses totally kicked (cue Jim Mora) in game 3, and were down early in game 4. But they still fought and put themselves in a position to win the game.
I look up and down this squad and even if we win 100 games this year, I don't see the type of players that can buck up in the playoffs and play with heart.

I don't think we really know anything about this team yet. We really haven't seen them all healthy at the same time yet.
