Beth, who's NOT going is the bigger question.
Far as I can tell, Beckett is the only "big name" player not getting on that plane.
All I can say is...
GO SOX!
Speaking as one who knows, why would anyone voluntarily fly 17 hours unless he had a very good reason. Sounds like a business trip for our computer gamer:)
Thanks for posting the lineup Beth!
