After the long game last night the Red Sox bullpen has a few tired arms. Here is the pitch count from the pen yesterday: Delcarmen 25, Oki 17, Masterson 16, Papelbon 31, Lopez 20. The bullpen is not fully loaded for game 4 but most relievers should be able to go again tonight. What we need is a good long outing from Lester, much like he did in game 1. If the Red Sox are tied in the late innings we may see Wake or Byrd make an appearance. Even with the high pitch count last night, look for Papelbon to be back in for a one inning save.
