Looking forward to seeing Byrd in his first start, but Halladay is always a tough one. Here's the matchup:
Red Sox: Making his first start with the Sox since arriving in Tuesday's trade, Byrd will look to keep his current streak of strong
starts going in Boston against the Jays. Byrd is 4-0 since the All-Star break, with a 1.24 ERA in that span, making him a strong addition for Boston's
stretch run. Given the current state of the team's rotation, either working through stints on the disabled list (Bartolo Colon and Tim Wakefield) or
struggling to find a rhythm (Clay Buchholz), the durable veteran is exactly what the Sox were looking for at this point in the season to bolster their
starting five.

Not a bad combination...........
