I was lucky enough to score 1 box seat to Opening Day at Fenway this weekend. My guess is Wells if Schilling does start Opening Day (still up in the air). Tentative rotation I beleive will be
Schilling
Wells
Clement
Arroyo
Miller
When is Miller coming back? I thought he was out until June. Is Wakefield getting pushed to the Bullpen?

Sosa has ALWAYS sucked. Follow me on this....he was on Roids, AND used a corked bat, AND played in Wrigley, and he didn't hit 130 HR's in a year????

True. Plus he played in the much weaker National League, which has little league parks like Coors. Maybe he should have had 200 HRs

From what I have read Wade Miller won't be ready until June so Wakefield will be the #5th starter. Or if your really lucky you may get to see Ding Dong Kim..............

that's right I forgot about Miller. If Kim starts a game that means things must have gone horribly wrong somewhere :-?

He can be shaky at times, but when he's on... he's damn good. It will be good to have Wells & Schilling in the rotation with him.

Congrats to the Colonel Jerry Coleman for being selected to receive the 2005 Ford C. Frick Award. I can honestly say that Jerry Coleman is the nicest man I have ever met...in sports or otherwise.
