It's always going to be command. Again, having the extra velocity gives you a little bit more room for error. Having the ability to reach back for a little bit more at certain times of the game, I think, is more important than having a consistent 95 mph fastball. He's shown that time and time again this spring.
More Quotes from Terry Francona:
The hard part about that is there's always a chance for a late trade that could change something. But I don't think we'll be in a position with one last outing, where they'll be some pitch-off or something like that.Terry Francona
We asked a lot, physically, of people in 2004 that I think may have hurt us this year. I don't think anybody would trade that.

That's why we took Trot and Manny out. If you're gonna lose, rather than have them chase balls down all afternoon, try to come out Sunday and give a good effort and salvage something out of the series.
Terry Francona
I handed him off to Dale because I can't stop him. He didn't hit anyone with his bat, so we're ahead of the game.

We're really pleased. They catch the ball. The offense, we'll see. There have been ups and downs with both of them. If we can get in the middle with both of them, that's probably what we're looking for. They've mixed in really well. Lowell, for instance, he doesn't have to hit cleanup for us. He can hit sixth or seventh. If he doesn't start out like a house of fire, it's not going to be a really big deal for us.

Don't get me wrong These people love the Patriots. But they wake up and want to know what happened to the Red Sox. I mean, they really care. It's unbelievable. I've never seen anything like it. It's part of what's so good. But I'm right smack in the middle of it, and it gives me a headache sometimes. I know what it means to these people. I just want to do what's right for our team. I love living through this with them.

Specifically, we talked about making the character of the prince not so charming, at least in the beginning, and I'm playing around with the preconceptions attached to a character. That's really what intrigued me as well because I thought it would be fun to do it.
