It's a hard act to follow what Jon Lester did on Wednesday. I know something about that since I was a #2 pitcher most of my playing career. My advice for the Dice-man is to pitch his own game. Do what he does best.
We have a rested bullpen. With a day off everyone is available -- Lopez, Masterson, Delcarmen, Okajima & Papelbon. Even if Dice-K pitches 5 scoreless & out, we should be able to handle it.
On the offensive side I look for Pedroia, Youk, Drew & Ortiz to get more involved. We got a win without a lot of production for #2, #3, #4 & #5. It was basically the Ellsbury & Bay show in Game 1.
I still think Mike Lowell should take the next game off. His liabilities are too overwhelming.
Look for another nail-biting, low-scoring affair.
