Sox Sweep Series in LA?

I know. Someone is going to say that I need to cut back on my medication. However, I think that there is a good chance that the Red Sox sweep the Dodgers this weekend. First, Clayton Kershaw will not pitch. With an ERA under 2.00 Kershaw is the best pitcher in baseball. Not facing him is a big plus. Second, with the Dempster suspension, the Sox will feature Lackey, Lester & Peavy in this series. All 3 guys are capable of keeping the Dodgers offense in check. Third, you know that it's about that time of year for Adrian Gonzalez to begin his swan song, a/k/a end of year fade, like he has done every year. I think that there are a lot of plus-es going for the Sox, including today's off day. So I am predicting a sweep by the Red Sox over the Dodgers. This Boston team just doesn't quit.
