It’s officially the second half of the season for the Boston Red Sox and they enter it with a 10 game lead over the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees. The Red Sox had a lead last year entering the second half as well and we all know what happened. First thing I want you to do is erase that from your memory bank. This is a different team than last year. Plus the schedule after the break this year is a little bit easier, at least on paper. As the Red Sox prepare to take on the Blue Jays tonight, let’s take a look at the headlines from the Boston area media on this much cooler Thursday morning here in Red Sox Nation.
