The Sox will win it this year, and if it wasn't for Pedro staying in too long in the ALCS last year, they could be the defending champs, but hey who knows. I do know they are going to be in the world series, and it is even more likely if the Twins take care of the Yanks, although the Sox are on the road the whole post season except for the series. Also, as long as the Yanks don't win, I'll be happy, but I still think Boston has the best shot.
