Clay Buchholz-S- Red Sox Aug. 16 - 11:10 am et

According to the Boston Globe, Clay Buchholz will start Game 1 of Friday's doubleheader.

Various reports agree that Wily Mo Pena is likely to be let go in order to make room for Buchholz, but now it sounds like Jacoby Ellsbury, rather than Bobby Kielty, will then replace Pena for Game 2.

My league has weekly lineups - any chance Clay starts again next week? I could use him.

Slim to nil. No doubleheaders next week. Lester and Wakefield are pitching well. No reason to insert Buchholz into the starting rotation now.

In all likelihood he is being sent down right after the game for Ellsbury...Sox already announced that Ellsbury is coming up

Since Clay is likely to be sent down for Ellsbury, there wont be a Wily Mo move? Does Wily Mo have options left or does he have to be released?

You need someone to move to make room for Buch tomorrow. It has to be either:1) Wily Mo2) Snyder3) Put someone on the DLThe above seems to be the order of likelihood...

No options. He's probably a gonner(goner?).

FYI Scioscia made a last minute move, Buchholz will face Lackey instead of Santana...
