Lyford has a nice preview of the 2008 Red Sox up at his site. He pegs the team to win 98-103 games which seems about right. He also gives the "cup half-full" look at what could go wrong.
- Beckett gets hurtSome things that could balance out these potential pitfalls:
- Lowell crashes
- Manny continues to decline
- Ortiz drops off
- Lester and Buchholz aren't ready
- Dice-K becomes a top level Cy Young contender in his second seasonI just wanted to point out these things because I'm feeling optimistic today.
- Jacoby Ellsbury emerges as Ichiro-lite at the top of the order
- Kevin Youkilis finds his power stroke and hits 25+ HR
- Lester wins 15+ games and people start talking about the second coming of Bruce hurst
