Sometimes, I've wondered how the Red Sox would be if they got a Molina to play behind the plate, and allocated that money elsewhere (like, the bullpen). I feel like that might be a better team.
We have Wakefield for the pen. And I guess some starter could make a performance a la Mike Pelfrey earlier in the season (when he was scheduled to throw a side session then just pitched an inning for the save instead).
One more example of why wins is a terrible stat. Beckett's eligible for one, and he's certainly not been any good. And yet, it's a key factor for a lot of Cy Young voters.
Ells has left side pain, the same side as his broken ribs.
