Wrong. They are only 10 games back of the best team in the NL. And to be fair, they are only 2 games back of the Arizona Diamondbacks, who are tops in the NL West. The same Astros that beat the Red Sox 11-10 two days ago and 3-2 today. The same Astros who just recently won 2 out of 3 games over the Tampa Bay Rays (1st in the majors) AT TROPICANA FIELD, no less.

So I guess that proves that Matsuzaka is a better pitcher than Lester and Beckett, since they didn't even win their games against the Astros (Lester got beat up for 6 runs!) and that Matsuzaka just beat the team (the Astros) that beat the best team in all of baseball (the Tampa Bay Rays).

Oh and by the way, I guess you are talking about the same Astros who own the fourth best hitting average (.262) in the NL.

The Astros have currently won 4 out of the last 5 games, with the lone loss at the hands of .... Umm ... now who was that guy? Starts with a D and ends with a K. Hmmm ...

Meanwhile, the Red Sox have lost the last 3 games, with the last win being from .... now who was it ... Ummm ...
