BOS: RHP Curt Schilling (4-2, 3.94 ERA)
Schilling is 1-2 with a 4.40 ERA in six career games (four starts) against the Guardians. He is facing Cleveland for the first time this season. Last year, he gave up five runs on nine hits and struck out eight in 6 2/3 innings in an April 25 start at Jacobs Field, but had a no-decision in Boston's 8-6 win.

CLE: LHP Cliff Lee (2-1, 5.93 ERA)
Lee is coming off an 11-7 loss to Kansas City in which he gave up seven runs in the first two innings. He allowed a season-high eight runs in 4 1/3 innings in that loss to the Royals, his fifth start of the season. Lee is 2-1 with a 3.45 ERA in five career starts against Boston.
Ill leave the mojo up to the experts. All I have to say is Schilling...step the f*** up and pitch like you know you can, you son of a bitch.
