Don't Look Now, But John Lackey Is Good Again
All of the signs were crossed when the Angels and Red Sox faced off last night. Los Angeles of Anaheim is now the club struggling to reach .500 despite its massive payroll; Boston, lean and mean (in comparison to previous years, anyway) after its salary dumps last August, is back in first place....

Robert Griffin III And New Wife Release First Rap Video
