Gordon=Timlin. Rivera is the best closer going right now, but Schilling is a huge X-factor. If he's healthy and on his game, he will be formidable. I think it really comes down to middle-relief. Sturtze and Proctor are hard throwing righties, which is the type of pitcher the Sox lineup hits best. Most of the Sox troubles have come against lefties and junk-ballers with control. Halama, Embree, and Myers can work the lefties, and maybe squeeze a few more outs against the back end of the lineup. Bradford is good for situational outs against righties. Whichever middle-relief shows up with their 'A' game for this series will be key. Of course, any one of the starters going could deliver 8 quality innings.
