Our heads are still spinning

So many thoughts flew through our heads, so little time to get them down.

The surprising return of Cliff Lee is like a good novel full of plot twists that has Philly fans psyched and Yankees fans crying.

The only way to improve that story is if it were true that there was a SoxandPhils trade for Joe Blanton that was motivated by the Red Sox helping the Phillies afford to add their fourth ace to keep him out of the Bronx.

That's probably a little far-fetched, but not so much more far-fetched than the Phillies signing a guy to a $120 million contract just about a year after they traded him away because they didn't think they could re-sign him.

Now, we have to worry about him matching up with Jon Lester in Game 2 of the World Series. I have to admit, I'm a little worried about the Game 4 John Lackey-Roy Oswalt matchup. We'll figure it out. Sox in 7.
