Red Sox Get Ready for 2009

Manager Terry Francona heads into his sixth season as the Red Sox' most successful skipper since Bill Carrigan led the team to back-to-back titles in 1915 and 1916. Tito brings back most of the cast that brought the team to within a game of the World Series, a crew good enough for Baseball Prospectus to pick them to have the best record in baseball in 2009.
