Desperation in Boston?

Terry Francona says no.

Can the Red Sox hit enough to earn a playoff spot? Does their lineup scare anyone?

Last year, observers complimented the Philadelphia Phillies by saying that they were the only National League team with an American League lineup. Translated, that meant that the pundits were saying that the Phillies could flat-out hit.

So, can someone now diss the BoSox by saying that they have a National League lineup? Of course, they wouldn't be the only team worthy of that moniker, but did the Red Sox' brass think that the lineup that the team went into the season with can contend?

We'll find out.
