Roster Turnover

[Hobosox]

just figured it's been a while since there was an update, not that this will be headline news...


IN
John Lackey
Mike Cameron
Marc Scutaro
Adrian Beltre
Jeremy Hermida
Bill Hall
Boof Bonser (betcha didn't know that one)


OUT
Jason Bay
Julio Lugo
Casey Kotchman
(possibly Mike Lowell by ST)



We also now have TWO Ramon Ramirez's, which is just all anyone could ask for!


Possible Opening Day Lineup:

2B Pedroia
SS Scutaro
C V. Martinez
1B Youkilis
DH Ortiz
CF Cameron
RF Drew
3B Beltre
LF Ellsbury

definitely some age in that lineup, but not too shabby. Hermida, Hall, and Varitek off the bench doesn't really feel overwhelming to anyone.

Rotation:
Beckett
Lester
Lackey
Dice-K
Buchholz (trade bait?)
Wakefield


Bullpen: -Solid
Delcarmen
Ramirez
Bard
Okajima
Papelbon
(Bowden, minors/spot starter)
(Tazawa, minors/spot starter)


Can't wait til PCR (pitchers and catchers report!). Let's pray this "pitching and defense" thing works, Theo.
