Wow, has Loretta been that bad? He started well...
Ok, maybe San Diego knew what they were doing. Then again, it's early yet.

Robinson Cano .316 .341 .443 (.785)
Andy Phillips .154 .214 .269 (.484)
Bernie Williams .217 .262 .283 (.545). Please, make it stop.
Day-to-day:
Gary Sheffield .341 .390 .516 (.906)
How ABOUT that back end of the order, eh?
Sheff being out really hurts (just as Coco being out hurts the Sox).

Ok, but not very good. If he gets good defense, he's a pretty good pitcher. But the Yankee defense isn't very good. Once the "d" fails him, he tends to unravel. Jeter made a terrible error (booted a sure DP grounder, everybody safe) in his first start out in Oakland and Wang just couldn't recover.
His control has been off. He's walked too many guys.

I'm pleased with the product thus far, actually. Some flukey stuff has happened that I expect will even out over the course of the season. The Yankees have given up fewer runs/game than the Sox, and scored many more. As they should

i think that fatty fat fat wells is done. those lubricant knee shot thingies arnt doing anything"Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment

I think the Red Sox have thought Wells was done all along, and proceeded accordingly.
Given the above, however, the question is what to do with Papelbon. He's been phenomenal as a closer, but I think he's a pretty darned good starter too, and ultimately isn't a good starter > a good, or even great reliever?
Your top 3 is solid. Your #4 is shaky but not too bad (Clement). If you slide him down to #5 and stick Papelbon in, it seems to me that Boston's rotation is pretty nasty.
Of course, that weakens the bullpen. But that can probably be fixed for less than finding another starter...

actually, since we're going to have clemens as are #1, everyone moves down one more spot
then we would have wakefield in the bullpen, im not sure about that, he gives up homeruns like candy."Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment

What? Why would Wakefield be in the bullpen?
Shilling
Beckett
Wakefield
Papelbon
Clement
That's 5 starters. Am I missing someone?

Scored or allowed?
Predicting the score of any one baseball game is a fool's game, but since I'm feeling foolish:
Yankees 6, Red Sox 4.
