134

The Red Sox magic number to clinch the division is now 134.

The pitching has been as good as the hitting has been bad recently. Still, it's nice to see they're chugging along, picking up wins with all the nagging injuries they've had. And some of the kids (Lowrie, Moss, Masterson) have gotten valuable experience, both playing and just being around the big league club.

The minor league system is producing more talent for the big club now than any other time I can recall. (Adjust for ignorance and lack of attention to this in the past.)
