As a Red Sox fan, I'm kinda glad to see him go. He comes across as sort of a head case and he scares me when he takes the mound. He can take his wild eyes, his crazy dance and the Dropkick Murphys with him. Bard will probably work. If not maybe they can throw Lackey out there. He's gotta be good for something.
