[net.sport.baseball] Preview of the BoSox

Well, its that time of year to examine your team's prospects.  My team
is the Boston Red Sox. 

This year for the bosox could be full of a lot of surprises.  If their young
pitching staff performs well and the hitting is as good as last year then
a lot of people could be in for a surprise.  Al Nipper (who has a blood
disease and will be out 2 months), Oil Can Boyd, and Roger Clemeans all showed
a lot of potential last year and if they continue to improve, and if Mark 
Clear get over his control, the bosox will have one of the best pitching
staffs in the league in addition to an excellent offense and they could go
far.  If, however, the pitching does not come arround, they could end up 
finishing in the same place they did in '84 or worse.
