Lowell is out because

he busts he hump every day. If he pulled a Manny he would be healthier right now.

Buch must stay.

Buchholz is the 5th starter. We can afford to lose games as he learns the big leagues, but Pawtucket has nothing more to teach him. Nothing. So if you want to send him down, you are probably ruining the confidence of a player who really seems to need it to succeed.

Anyway, the guy who really needs to shape up is Beckett who has been quite bad lately. July ERA: 5.74. That’s completely unacceptable for our presumptive ace.
