Wednesday choke links

The Red Sox and Mets are choking about as bad as any teams in recent memory right now. Even though both should still be able to hang on, I have the feeling one of them is going to crap the bed. I'll say the Mets, provided Gagne never takes the mound again. Somebody really needs to put that guy down. He's done.
