NESN has just reported that Wakefield is a late scratch for tonight's game, and Julian Tavarez will start in his place. Tina Cervasio reported that Wake is only expected to miss one game- and that doctors are looking at him more. Kevin Cash said he hadn't noticed any problems with Wake during Cash's workout with him this week.

What's more, Joba Chamberlain has been suspended by MLB for two games and fined an undisclosed amount. How fitting that it was our favorite MLB suit and yours, Bob Watson, who delivered the news. I'm glad they finally gave him something to do other than worry about Tito's shirt.
