Snyder (1-1, 10.03)         Moyer (5-8, 3.75)

The intro to today's Yahoo! game preview:

With three members of their regular starting rotation sidelined with injuries, the Boston Red Sox could use a reliable veteran arm to pitch quality innings. They could use someone like Jamie Moyer.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a starter currently in the Major Leagues who'd be less likely to succeed in Fenway than Jamie Moyer.

In other news...um...John Sickels posts a midseason review of his Top 20 Mariners prospects over on his site, so give that a look. Also, it must take a hell of a lot of things going wrong for the Red Sox to end up putting Kyle friggin' Snyder in the rotation, so here's to the M's taking advantage. If they end up getting shut out, it's because they're laughing too hard. Or because they suck. Whichever helps you sleep at night.

LET'S GO MARINERS!
