Re: Sox, Colon reach minor league deal
I don't think we neccessarily need Colon to be anything other than a mop up guy to have a successful season. Schillings injury, IMO, is going to turn out to be more of a blessing than a burden. Buchholz is ready. I love his stuff, and I think Lester is ready for 200. The only people who have spoken about a innings cap on Lester are people outside of the organization. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think Theo has commented on limited Lesters innings like he has with Buchholz, but still, I'm not concerned with Buchholz only being alotted 160-180. I expected as much. A midseason stop on the 15 day DL could probably take care of it. Schilling was going to do as much anyways. Maybe by then we can have a better read on Schill's progress and they can spell each other down the stretch.
