Gordon Edes of ESPN Boston has seen enough, and thinks it’s time to remove John Lackey from the Red Sox rotation. “This has gone on long enough. Terry Francona has to yank John Lackey from the starting rotation. Francona has a replacement on hand. His name is Alfredo...

Tuesday’s game is a big one, as they all are at this point. Essentially, the Sox get a Brandon Morrow vs Tim Wakefield rematch, the same matchup from last Wednesday in Toronto. In that game, Wake allowed four earned run in five innings, but the Sox offense put...
