Why? That's all we want to know. Breslow? Really? I mean we like the guy and all, but...
BRESLOW? And Pedey at DH? Anyway, here is the starting lineup today for the Red Sox:
Mookie Betts RF,
Dustin Pedroia DH,
Xander Bogaerts SS,
Travis Shaw 1B,
Rusney Castillo LF,
Brock Holt 3B,
Josh Rutledge 2B,
Blake Swihart C,
Jackie Bradley, Jr. CF. And
inexplicably,
Craig Breslow is on the mound.
