Couldn't get runs across the plate at all in this game. Offense struggling with Ortiz in the lineup as we shifted Youk from 2nd to 3rd in the lineup and Crisp is batting behind Pedroia after being in the bottom third for most of the season. Hope Floyd can produce as I have no faith in Cruz right now and Ellsbury was just 1-8 in his brief callup after the initial injury.
We do have Willy Taveras (.220/.238/.531), David Murphy (.276/.340/.459) and Mitch Maier (.271/.308/.452) hitting decently at Pawtucket. Lars Anderson is also a possibility (.320/.370/.473, 38 2Bs, 11 HRs, 73 RBIs), but he is only 20 years old and in his first season at AAA.

Plan on blogging atleast one game a in-season week but hopefully one per series.
