It'd be a bit daunting to know back on Opening Day that we'd be fielding this kind of lineup in April -- not to mention that Beckett's not the only starter with an ERA above 5 (Lester, Lackey, and Wakefield are flying high as well.)
There's no doubt we'll recover, but enough to compete with the MFY and Tampa?
First things first. A sweep will put the Jays behind us, and us in third place.

Hi Ish. Don't know if anyone is here. Is there something wrong with Blogger? Or is it just JOS? I can't seem to get to comments there.
Good luck Boston fans.
Time for Eveland to come down to Earth.
OK, guess you aren't here.
GO SOX! Let Laura and Allan see a W, goddammit.
Four singles, only one run.
I'll take it. But Varitek's allowed to hit something other than a solo HR, I hope the gods know.
Blogger's returning comments with a lot of errors. I'm trying not to take it personally.
Hmm, I am having real problems with Blogger on Firefox tonight. I posted two comments, but they did not come through and now I cannot get through to any comments at all there. If anyone has any brilliant ideas, let me know. I am now on IE, which is a pain.
Anyway, GO SOX! Win it for us and for Laura and Allan.
Josh living dangerously with two outs.
Is the Dome really closed?
OK, blogger sucks. No comments going through, it seems (unless Ish isn't putting them through??).
Enjoy the game.
Beware Seabass's great power. His 5 HR are right up there with Varitek's 4.
"Blogger's returning comments with a lot of errors. I'm trying not to take it personally."
Does that refer to me? No disrespect intended.
Can't see my mistake though - moderation is on. I'm not proud, if my spell checker isn't working I go download a new one. :)
Still no OTT.
It occurs to me that the Sox getting four singles and everyone only advancing one bases each time confirms RS's issue with the term "RISP". Unhappily, of course.
Scooter perfect on the day. And in scoring position.
That's a joke.
Man, I'm having a ball here.
Now see that. Scooter can't score from second on Pedey's single. It just fuckin' goes to show ya.
Seems Zen is the only one who can comment. Even Ish isn't commenting!
OK, trying again to comment. Not sure what the hell is going on.
But the Sox have the bases loaded with no outs!
Varitek drives in two -- and saves us from the ignominy of failing to score with bases loaded and no outs.
I'm going to take off for a bit. You all keep it down in here while I'm gone.
OK
Ha! 5-6
If you told me I'd come home and find us behind, I'd have been...surprised.
And here we are.
Testing blogger.
Crazy game. Up and down. Too bad I couldn't get into Blogger to thread. But then no one was here but poor Zen!
And it's only halfway over!
I was occupied earlier watching the Bruins send the Sabres off to the golf course.
Oh darn I hate the Toronto announcer.
craziness! Been watching most of the game w/o the computer. Not even sure what to say of this wreck. Least it's not dull for Allan and Laura. Let's come out on top of the see-saw.
Up by 2 but will it last in this crazy adventure?
Scoot lucky at 1st and home. or, more accurately, they're sloppy.
Ol' ball magnet gets it again.
This is painful.
This is getting Monty Python ridiculous.
Who the feck is coming in?
I sent down Bill Hall and called up Angel Santos in MLB 2k10.
What a crazy, crazy game!
It's that celebrated defense that puts us on top in these 1-run games!
The depressing take is: you can't enjoy winning like this, and like several games have been recently.
The optimistic take is: our rotation has to improve. If and when it does, we're going to be stylin'!
