Back Of 'Roy'-Tation For Oswalt?

Reports circulated over the weekend that Phillies hurler Roy Oswalt (who had a mediocre 2011) is drawing interest from the Red Sox and Yankees. If Oswalt can regain his form in 2012, he'd be a decent back of the rotation fill-in for Boston—which needs at least two starters for the coming year. Beckett, Lester, and Buchholz are set for the top spots, but Lackey's Tommy John surgery, Wakefield's likely departure and Dice-K's mid-season availability leave a big void early on.
