Looks like an 0 - 2 start for the BoSox.
Too early to panic? (It's never too early to panic in Boston, no matter what the team!)

No you should panic immediately.
Starting pitching is ok, I think Beckett will be fine, but the bull pen and some of the other position players not so much. It's going to be a long year, especially if you expect to make the playoffs. Too many old guys if you ask me.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming;- Theodore Rooseveldt

Why on earth do you have Nick Punto on your roster?

Nick Punto just won a World Series.

Well.
Oh to listen to Boston Sports Radio tomorrow AM.
Think Mutt and Lou will be very entertaining after the Brian Richards show on TSN1050.

What's the over/under on when Beckett starts hearing boos?

My first thought was on the way out to the bullpen to warm up, but this is pink hat crew day and the regular fans won't be there until Saturday.
So after the 1st gopher. They can't give away roof top parking on the other side of the Monster.

Is there room on the Rays bandwagon?
Kidding. sort of.
At the Rays-Yanks game during the FF, I was struck by how easy it is to like the Rays. Then I thought back to the Red Sox and . . . who am I kidding. Just because it was a blessing to be a Sox fan for a couple years doesn't mean it isn't still a curse. I'm stuck with them.

The Popeye's Fried Chicken in Kenmore Square has a sign out this morning that says "4 out of our 5 pitchers like our chicken best!" Ha ha!! All you can do is laugh.

First pitch will be Wakefield and Varitek.

Well, my timing is as good as ever. Much hand-wringing in the Tampa area right now.
From the Bosox perspective, yesterday was still worrying. You still had a top of the rotation starter getting into an early hole.
Still . . . if they can win with Dubront and/or Bard as starter, it'll be a nice weekend, indeed.
