Just in case
The Sox brought up righthander David Pauley from Pawtucket to fortify the bullpen, "in case something ever happened,'' said Francona. "You know we had a lot of guys throw a lot of pitches last night. The chances are that after tonight's game, if everything goes according to plan, maybe we'll make another move. But we'll take it one at a time here.''

Charlie Zink: 85 (56 strikes)
Javier Lopez: 9 (6 strikes)
David Aardsma: 17 (10 strikes)
Manny Delcarmen: 29 (21 strikes)
Hideki Okajima: 29 (17 strikes)

I'd say we are looking at Pap and Lopez as able to come back tonight if needed and Masterson and Timlin are fresh. Not bad. Lopez for lafties and Masterson for righties.
