Xander Bogaerts will be
in the lineup today for the Red Sox, so his knee issue was likely minor.
Pablo Sandoval, on the other hand, is
not playing today—raising questions about
his foot injury. It's not clear why
David Ortiz is sitting—although it might just be a routine day off.
Mike Napoli will DH today and
Allen Craig will play at first.
Brock "Mr. Swiss Army Knife" Holt will play third base. Here is the full lineup:
Mookie Betts CF,
Dustin Pedroia 2B,
Hanley Ramirez LF, Craig 1B, Napoli DH,
Shane Victorino RF, Bogaerts SS, Holt 3B,
Sandy Leon C.
Wade Miley will start for Boston.
