The starts by Boof and HH will be on MLB.TV.

Peter Abraham claims this "sets up either Josh Beckett (on one extra day or rest) or Jon Lester (on normal rest) to start on Opening Day against the Yankees on April 4 in Boston". ... Good call -- as if someone other than one of those guys will be pitching G1.

Mike Cameron left Sunday's workout early with tightness in his left groin. ... Mike Lowell has been working out at first base.

    Those mlb.tv games are also on regular TV for those who can get it: NESN on Wednesday night, and MLBN on Sunday (which could mean NESN for NESN-area people(?))

    LOL

    So maybe the debate should be WHO will be the Opening Day starter. My gut tells me Becks.

    The day's reading:

    From Abraham chat available on Extra Bases: "Mariano [Rivera] is a freak of nature. He's the greatest athlete I have ever covered. He plays CF in batting practice and runs down balls like Willie Mays. It's crazy."

    Wow.

    I swore I wouldn't read any more Shaughnessy. But I gave in read his bit on SI.com about five pressing issues the Sox have. It's a bunch of crap laced with statistic denial, strongly implying that most fans were right not to notice any poor defensive performance from Lugo and Lowell last year.

    I am now raising my right hand and swearing yet again not to read CHB anymore. I renounce him and his works.

    More importantly, this schedule also sets up Terry Francona to manage the team on opening day.

    Benjamin has the right idea.

    Zen, too. Let's make it a JoS pledge. Easy for me!
