For the second consecutive day,
Jacoby Ellsbury is out of the Red Sox lineup with a "lat strain". In the final game at Tampa, Bobby Valentine started Pedro Ciriaco is center to spell Ellsbury yet another game on the stupid, fake TropicanaTurf. We all know how that turned out. Ellsbury was hot of late, and served as a spark at the top of the Boston line-up. Rumors persist about an off-season trade of the talented center-fileder—since he is Boras-Bound and likely out of Boston after 2013.
