Not that every start in a pennant race isn't important, but the Dice-man has a chance to start the big series against the Rays with a win. He is matched up against Scott Kazmir who, like Daisuke, has trouble going deep into games.
The Rays batters are pretty patient as are the Sox. Like their last head-to-head battle, fans can expect a low-scoring affair that will come down to each team's bullpen. Take away Timlin & Papelbon lately & the Sox pen has been excellent.
Fasten your seat belt for 3 playoff-type games to start the week. I say the Sox win the 1st 2 & game 3 is a toss-up.
