Last night featured the return of Curt Schilling IMO. He was teriffic last night. He had the great splitter, and in the late innings he was throwing 92-94 consitently which we have not seen basically since last April when he started off so hot. If he can pitch like this more often then not, we are in great shape.
I was completley wrong about Pedroia, this kid can hit and play solid defense. I almost think it wouldn't be a horrible idea to hit Pedroia leadoff, with Youk hitting second. That would create a lot of base runners for Manny and Ortiz. Lugo can not continue to leadoff, he just isn't a leadoff guy.
