Hansen may still figure in the Sox plans to close one day, but it now falls on new pitching coach John Farrell to repair Hansen’s psyche, as well as to help Hansen once again show the stuff, especially the biting slider, that made the Sox choose him No. 1 in '05. He remains a work in progress. Meanwhile, the 2006 first-round pick, Daniel Bard, was throwing 100 mph in Instructional League. Hmmmm. Do you suppose the Sox might be tempted to convert Bard to reliever?
