Sh...Lester's going tonight on short rest, too. Should be interesting.<br /><br />As far as Aceves - I really hope that we don't irreparably injure him, trying to get into the playoffs. We need a guy like for years to come. He's already thrown 6-1/3 innings over the course of three consecutive days. <br /><br />I'd be as happy seeing Wakefield start against TB tomorrow (if necessary) as any other pitcher.

...Um... and this is the guy we have going tonight?<br /><br />Seriously. These numbers are stunning. I knew we were pitching badly, but 10.54!?!! And even if Lester pitches well tonight and we win, you know the Rays will win against the Yankees poo-poo platter of backup and reliever pitchers they'll toss out tonight. This means that we'll have Lackey or Wakefield going in the one-game playoff. URGH.<br /><br />The good (?) news is that without the android out-machine Aceves (who most likely will not be available tonight), the Sox may be <a href="http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/09/28/the-reds-may-pitch-clay-buchholz-tonight/" rel="nofollow">activating Buchholz for long-relief tonight</a>.
