According to Michael Vega of the Boston Globe, the Red Sox made a pretty significant roster prior to tonight’s game. “The Red Sox just announced they have placed John Lackey on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right elbow.” As Troy described...

The Pawtucket Red Sox’ season opener Thursday night was notable not only for who played but also for who did not play. Ex-Yankee Alfredo Aceves was tabbed earlier in the week by manager Arnie Beyeler to start against the Rochester Red Wings. But approximately an hour...
