y, and notably, Boston has failed to make the postseason cut in each of the last two years. The way last season ended was particularly tough to swallow. On the final night of the regular season, Boston, needing a victory over the last-place Baltimore Orioles to capture the AL Wild Card, took a 3-2 lead into the ninth inning. That lead would vanish in the bottom of the ninth, as the O's rallied for two runs off closer Jonathan Papelbon to win in walk-off fashion. On that same night, the Tampa Ba

not exactly hitter-friendly, but neither was Busch Stadium, where Pujols did most of his damage. Remember, Hall of Famer Frank Robinson had the best year of his career after switching leagues in 1966, winning the AL MVP that season for the Baltimore Orioles. Pujols should have similar success. Let's keep in mind, though, this is a player who has finished in the top five in MVP voting 10 times, won two Gold Gloves, and was named NL Rookie of the Year in 2001. He has been selected for nine All-S

c or not, Wright said he plans to be in the Mets' Opening Day lineup, but these are the Mets. No injury is minor, especially an abdomen, the same type of muscle tear that recently forced Washington Nationals third baseman Ryan Zimmerman and Baltimore Orioles outfielder Nick Markakis to undergo surgery. "Everybody's frustrated," said Wright, who missed more than two months with a stress fracture in his lower back last season. "I'm frustrated. The guys who have had to miss some time are frustrate
