ESPN Boston reports that Jason Varitek will miss the next 4-6 weeks with a broken foot. Is this even real life? Seriously? Varitek and Martinez are both out with broken bones, so we will need to plug in a minor leaguer to be our catcher for a little while. We have Beckett and Buchholz injured and ailing in the rotation. Pedroia and Ellsbury are absent from the top of our order. Honestly, who's next? This is one of the worst injury plagues we've seen a team have in recent memory. Guys going down every day like it's normal. Unfortunately for the Sox, it's not normal. Our outfield is already patched up with rookies and lifetime minor leaguers. Now, our infield is becoming the same. And with Delcarmen headed to the DL today as well, our bullpen is morphing into that style as well. Are we seeing the Red Sox slowly die into the Paw Sox? Because pretty soon we might just be seeing the entire Paw Sox lineup. Literally.
