Tavarez for Schilling

Before we get into today's lineup, the Red Sox have annnounced a change for Sunday. Julian Tavarez will start in place of Curt Schilling. The Red Sox made a point of saying that Schilling is not hurt. Sounds like he is resting for the playoffs.

Concerning tonight's game: David Ortiz, Julio Lugo and Dustin Pedroia have the night off. Coco Crisp is back from a virus.

Here is the lineup:

Coco Crisp, cf
Alex Cora, 2b
Manny Ramirez, dh
Mike Lowell, 3b
J.D. Drew, rf
Kevin Youkilis, 1b
Jacoby Ellsbury, lf
Doug Mirabelli, c
Royce Clayton, ss

Tim Wakefield, p
