It’s time to toe the rubber and look at the 2011 Red Sox pitching staff. From the top, Jon Lester, to the closer, Jonathan Papelbon, and everyone in-between, Paul and I continue to paint a rosy picture for the 2011 season.
The starting rotation will be anchored by Cy Young candidate Jon Lester, but will be defined by the seasons of John Lackey, Josh Beckett and Clay Buchholz. This staff could be brilliant, but there are questions with each that need to be answered.
Meanwhile, the bullpen — the bane of the 2010 season — has been revamped and turned from a detriment to a strength. But how strong? And for how long with Papelbon be it’s anchor?
All that and more on this episode of Fireside Chats.
