It's time for interleague! Is everyone excited?
No? Well, would you be if Alfredo Aceves wasn't starting tonight?
We've had a few of these "freebie" games so far this year. I'm pretty sure we should count this as one of those. If Alfredo Aceves does well against a middling Phillies offense and the Red Sox pull one out, that's awesome. If we don't, just chalk it up as one of those games a team is guaranteed to lose every year to random bad-luck shenanigans, ala Buchholz' injury.
At least for now, we've got a chance.
Go Sox!
