The Yankees show they are far better than the Red Sox, and that the New York vs Boston matchup in October is not nearly as likely as a future matchup with the Rays. Beckett continues to struggle for the Sox, and Teixeira and A-Rod are coming on at the right time, when the Yankees are in midst of injury problems.
Ubaldo Jimenez is making an early case for the Cy Young, with a 6-1 record and an ERA under 1! Despite losing to the Dodger's Clayton Kershaw this week, Jimenez is looking incredible and is an early NL Cy Young favorite.
Obviously, Dallas Braden's perfect game was the highlight of the week, becoming the 19th pitcher ever to reach perfection. Even more surprising was that once again, the Rays were shut down, as they saw Mark Buehrle throw a perfect game against them last season. Odd how such a good offense can face two perfect games in a year.
