Kotsay won't be in lineup

NEW YORK -- Though Mark Kotsay is expected in New York today before the game, he is not expected to be in tonight's lineup against the Yankees. His plane is scheduled to land just past 5 p.m., which would get him to the ballpark around 6 p.m.

It's unlikely that we'll get to talk to him before the game, but we'll bring you up to date as soon as we can on Kotsay, and how he'll be used by the Sox.
