Who makes Dice-K's next start?


Matsuzaka should miss one more start and it appears they'll need another arm but there isn't an obvious choice to make his next start.

Star-divide

I don't see Atchinson making another start.   Beckett won't be ready.  Doubront is on the DL.  I wouldn't throw Kelly into the fire just yet.  Bowden has struggled.  I think they'll go with Adam Mills who started today, lines up well with the next start and has been solid at AAA.

Theo unveils Lester 2.0.

A cyborg that can throw 3000 pitches per start, runs on Red Bull and shavings from Youk’s goatee.

But right now, it’s anybody’s guess who makes that start. . . .

My guess is Boof

that’s what they brought him in for, if he can’t do that he probably gets released.

Pedro's Available.

Wonder if Theo would take a gamble for a minor league deal.

I don't think Pedro would go for that

I think he recently said that to pitch this year, he’d have to make significantly more than he did last year, otherwise he’s fine with retiring.

How long do we think it would take Pedro to get into pitching shape anyway?

Dice-K will be back before then, and I don’t know if Pedro will wait in AAA for another injured starter.

DFA Beckett

Doubront is on the DL

He was placed on the 7-day DL retroactive to June 8th with a left-shin contusion so he’ll be available.

by radiohix on Jun 14, 2010 6:25 PM EDT reply actions  

He'll be able to come off the DL.

But that doesn’t mean he’ll be available.

How about Junichi Tazawa?

He played a few games for Boston last year, he had some good games and some bad. He’s for sure a future starter for the Sox unless he gets traded.
