One scenario being bandied about has
Jon Lester coming back to Boston (although he's putting his Newton house up for sale) and the Red Sox
also adding
James Shields. If you're into that possibility, it might behoove you to watch tonight's
AL Wild Card game (8PM Eastern, TBS). Both aces will face-off against one another in the
stupid "lose one game and go home" format bequeathed to us by outgoing Commissioner
Bud Selig. But, hey, it's still baseball—something we Red Sox fans have to wait 143 more days for. So watch, already!
