Replacing Selig with Obama

Boston, let it be known, has an unfair amount of pitching depth up on the big club. Per the RotoWorld depth charts, lets look at their starters:

  1. Josh Beckett ( R )
  2. Daisuke Matsuzaka ( R )
  3. Jon Lester ( L )
  4. Tim Wakefield ( R )
  5. Brad Penny ( R )
  6. Clay Buchholz ( R )
  7. Michael Bowden ( R )
  8. Junichi Tazawa ( R )

And now to their excellent relief corps:

  1. Jonathan Papelbon ( R )
  2. Hideki Okajima ( L )
  3. Takashi Saito ( R )
  4. Manny Delcarmen ( R )
  5. Justin Masterson ( R )
  6. Javier Lopez ( L )
  7. Ramon Ramirez ( R )
  8. Wes Littleton ( R )

Now why for the odd topic? Not sure, keep in mind that I’ve been drinking tonight. It would be humorous to see Obama as the commish for one day though. And the one thing I’m sure he’d go after is the Red Sox and their pitching stockpile. It’s just not fair that teams like the Rangers don’t have the pitching up on the big team now… um we need more of these.
