The sox got smoked today. Even though we didn't produce any offense, I will say that I like the switch up in the batting order: CF ellsbury, LF crawford, 2B pedroia, DH ortiz, 1B gonzalez, 3B aviles, SS scutaro, RF reddick, C saltalamachia.
I like the idea of crawford batting second because even though he's having a pretty awful season, he has been better of late and his speed will be a real good supplement to ellsburys. Needless to say, this being his second start of the season in the 2 spot, things havent worked too well for him at the bottom of the order. I like the set up of the lineup except i would probably substitute connor jackson for josh reddick and maybe move saltalamachia up a spot or two.
