Pittsburgh Pirates v Boston Red Sox
Best-of-seven, Pirates with the home-field advantage.
Not much to add here, I think everything has basically been covered other than the news that we get Steve Buechele back and Bill Almon is forced to make way.
Scott Fletcher has been handy and we’ll insert Buck into the soft side of a platoon at 3B and Fletch into the soft side of a platoon at SS with Jay Bell. His defence is too good not to have him playing every day.
Twelve years since we won it all, by far our longest dry spell. Be nice to end that here and now.
