I would also like to see what Buccholz can do this year, and Smoltz if he can pitch at all this year, should be a nice addition to our rotation, and Dice K is coming back soon so that should be good for us.
I honestly have no idea where the Sox need to improve on the beat the Rays.. Papi-type hitter? Youk and Bay is producing like crazy. Not bullpen, defense is fine imo, do we need a shortstop? Not necessarily to beat that one team.
Funny thing is, the fact that we are talking about how to beat the Rays now states that Yankees are not the biggest foe we face in AL East now. Rays are. I find that kind of funny to see how bad the Yankees are sliding down even with their spending spree.
