Isn't today the final game of a 4-game set?

Pretty sure this is the 4th game - of course, I may be wrong....

Does this mean Colon may pitch one of the games this weekend or is he staying in the Dominican Republic?

Did something happen to JD Drew last night, he only played 3 innings and now he's not playing tonight? did he hurt his back again?

"four-game set"

4 game set. Not 3 game set. 4 game set.

Four-game set...

I think you mean their final game of their *four-game* set at Fenway.

When is Dustin going to get a couple of days off? Also, what about Tek? Catching is pretty demanding. Couldn't Ross or Kottaras fill in to give him a breather?

Is it telling that JD Drew is not in the lineup, even at DH. Poor guy - he played so well early in the year - we forget that picked up the team with Papi on the DL. Wish he were healthy.
