Lugo should move to second and Pedroia to short. Better yet, Lowrie should start at second and Pedroia should move to short. [link]

    I think the Sox are going to give Lowrie some more at bats to see if he can handle the fulltime 2B job.  If he can, I see them putting Lugo in a backup role.  Not much else they can do with him.  no one else is going to want him.

    While the sox clearly needed a shortstop, Lugo is proving himself to have been a poor answer.  At least he's hitting a little better now, but after blowing Wednesday's game for Papelbon, he's become a major liability.  I think the Sox are going to go with the homegrown talent here.
