I have a feeling this is going to be one of those classic low scoring, quick getaway games. I say the Red Sox win 3-1 today behind more solid s*** from Lester. I think Youk is going to hit a 2-run bomb to break the game open.
Except for the fact Francona said time and time again last fall that his personal problems didn't take away from his job performance. I don't know if it's true or not, but that is what he said.
Too put it into perspective the Red Sox were 11-15 on May 1st last season. I think we will be okay. Doubront and Bard already look to be a huge improvement in the back end of our rotation from last year.
