Red Sox look more and more like the New York Yankees
Saturday, Oct 27, 2007 7:30 am EDT
So the question now, as the Boston Red Sox move toward a second championship in four years, is when do they officially become the team that everybody loves to hate? In other words, when does the world decide they've become the New York Yankees?
They fit all the categories, right? They win a lot. They spend big. Their fans seem to be multiplying by the day, invading stadiums around the country.
You'd have to say the old underdog role is gone for good. The Sox are too well-run, too well-financed, not to be an October presence for years to come. Chances are, their trade for Beckett is going to stand for years as the type of franchise-changing deal that teams in need of pitching will regard as the Holy Grail.
