Also scheduled to pitch: RHP Matt Albers, RHP Mark Melancon, RHP Vicente Padilla.
What to watch for:
- Kevin Youkilis has hit a robust .194 this spring.
- Melancon could win the closer's job temporarily with a strong outting if Bailey is going to miss time which is starting to seem inevitable.
- It would be nice to know what the Sox have in Aaron Cook and Padilla. Long relief and spot starts seems to be the consensus right now.
