5. THIS IS SO GOOD I HAD TO STEAL IT…Young blogger Matt Levine at dirtywatah.com on Jon Lester’s to-do List by age 24: 1) Beat Cancer (check), 2) Get the victory in the clinching World Series game (check) and 3) Become the first White Sox lefty since 1956 to throw a no-hitter (check).

Lester pitched a no-hitter for the RED SOX!!! Way to "check" that one!

Sox are going to repeat...their lineup is so stacked, Wakefield will be moved to the pen (great move) to assist in the gap between the starters (dice-k, beckett, lester, buchholtz, colon, shilling later in the year, then with a bullpen of wake, timlin, okie dokie, and paps) its going to be hard to stop in the playoffs.

Oh and don't forget --- they can hit too!!!

Lester is a RED Sox player, not White.
Can't MLB limit the number of press folks that descend on clubhouses after the game? Why should the NY media be allowed an unlimited number of reporters, just because it is a big city? That does not make sense to me.
Why are there no discussions of the Giants trading Benjie Molina, who does not fit into their future plans, but is killing the ball. Could the Yankees not use a good hitting catcher with Posada down? The Giants pick up a prospect or two, Yanks have a bat the lineup at catcher, win-win.

"3) Become the first White Sox lefty since 1956 to throw a no-hitter (check)."

Something you might wanna change.

Hint: He wears different colored socks.

It is B.J.'s brother, Justin, that plays for the Arizona Diamondbacks. B.J. is the center fielder for the Tampa Bay Rays.

Jon Lester is the first "Red" Sox lefty since 1956 to throw a no-hitter.
