Jackie Bradley is good, but not as good after the jump.
6/5
Pawtucket W 13-2
Ryan Kalish: 2-2, HR, 3 BB, SB
-Well, that's about as positive a testament as you can have for a rehab start.
Ryan Lavarnway: 4-5, 2B, HR, K
-Lavarnway has the numbers back up to levels of respectability, if not quite domination. .301/.389/.436, but hasn't really had that period where he destroys the competition for any length of time. 9-for-14 with three doubles and a homer in his last three games makes a strong argument that one's starting, however.
Lars Anderson: 0-4, BB, 3 K
Alex Hassan: 2-4, K
Che-Hsuan Lin: 2-4, BB
Daisuke Matsuzaka: 1.1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 2 K
-Quite the opposite of Kalish, Daisuke gives us no great boost in confidence in what is likely his last start before filling in for Bard.
Mark Prior: 1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 5 K
-Mark Prior is the answer!
