Red Sox-Devil Rays (July 20, 2005)

Wednesday's pitchers are David Wells (7-5, 4.73) for Boston against 6-10 Mark Hendrickson (4-6, 6.35) of Tampa Bay. The Sox are back in first place in the A.L. East (print the shirts) but a win today would be a nice boost heading toward Chicago and the White Sox this weekend. (Thoughts from Tuesday's game ... Arroyo should not be included in any deal that doesn't involve an impact player -- he's too valuable to this team right now ... though his singing does need work ... Dan Shaughnessy happened to mention a rumored Arroyo/Millar for Billy Wagner and Jim Thome ... no thanks on Thome's back and contract ... I told you Schill would be fine in the 'pen -- other than the Sheffield/A-Rod at-bats on Thursday he's been great in relief ... we'll miss you Alan Embree and Boston will never forget you hugging 'Tek after slaying the Yanks last October)
