I think a lot of people are going to overestimate Boston's edge in the lineups.

thats b/c when you look at the #'s, the Red Sox scored a lot more runs.

The Indians are not playing the same lineup that they had for 1/2 the year.
Barfield- 420abs .243/.270/.324 - has been replaced with
Cabrera- 159abs .283/.354/.421
Nixon- 307abs .251/.342/.336 - replaced by
Lofton .296/.367/.414
Micheals 267 .270/.324/.397 - replaced by
Gutierrez 271 .266/.318/.472
David Dellucci's 178 abs .230/.296/.382 are no longer there.
Andy Marte even put in 57 abs with a .193/.233/.316 line before being pulled.
That's close to 22% abs (1229/5604) being replaced with upgrades.
