Why would a pitcher think that he would be healthier with the Red Sox? Every year we have one or more starters miss substantial portions of the season. This year it has been Dice K and Buchholz. In ny memory, the last time that all of our starters stayed healthy was 2004.

I know the area. I went fishing out of Sheepshead Bay many time. It was and still is a nice area. I lived less than 10 minutes away by the Belt Parkway.
