BALTIMORE - Mike Lowell felt well enough yesterday that he thought he could return to the lineup as soon as Friday. After being placed on the disabled list, however, Lowell won’t play until two weeks from then.

The Red Sox made the decision more as a precautionary measure as much as anything else. Lowell, who underwent right hip surgery last October, had been bothered by stiffness in the area for the past two weeks.

As much as I admire Mike Lowell, do you wonder if he is beginning to understand why the Sox went after Mark Teixiera?

Ray I don't think he ever questioned why the Sox went after Texiera. He merely stated that he was dispointed at being the one mentioned as being traded as a result...

Well, we can only speculate, but I have to admit I thought the same thing when news of Mike's hip problem resurfaced. Jeff Bailey is an excellent addition while Mike HOPEFULLY recovers. I fear that this might be a 60-day problem issue.

Meanwhile the Cardinals get Mark DeRosa for Chris Perez (1-1 4.18 era). A that can play 3rd amongst several other positions and has some power.
