No panic here

Yes, the Sox have lost four out of their last five. Yes, our offense has looked horrid. Yes, Gagne had a complete and total meltdown on the mound and lost us the game. Yes, Manny and Youkilis are both hurt and we're not sure when they'll be back. Yes, Okajima is also hurting. Yes, the Yankees continue to win and are breathing down our necks. Yes, the once incredible lead in the AL East has gone from 14 1/2 to 2 1/2.

Am I worried? Yes, a bit. Am I scared? Yes, a bit. Am I panicking? Yes, a bit.

Do I have confidence that they can turn things around and win this thing? Yes!!
