W…T…F…??? John Smoltz will be making his final FINAL rehab start for Pawtucket tonight, then he will sit for 7 days, and make his 1st start in a Red Sox uniform on Thursday, June 25, against the Washington Nationals in DC…From John: “I’m going to have an abbreviated game (Wednesday) then next week; it looks [...]
