Much though I love Devern Hansack, I don't think he has what it takes long-term, whereas Kason actually might; I'd like to give him some more major league time to find out. I also think, though, that this is a decision a lot of teams would be thrilled to have. I'd be happy with any of these guys. I think it should be Gabbard.

In 13 starts, he has whiffed a hundred in just 74 innings, giving up 48 hits and 18 walks while recording a 1.82 era. Scouts love his three plus pitches, his stats are phenomenal. This kid has surpassed Lester as the Sox top pitching prospect and I'd love to see him get a chance in Boston either with these two starts or later this season. Clay Buchholz, from the Sea Dogs.

Most big league hitters don't chase pitches like that. I'd like to see his control get better with the big club, but I guess if he's killing the minor league guys so he has to move up.

Hansack has yet to show me that he can perform at the major league level, and no I have not forgotton about the no hit 5 inning game in the rain last year.

Lester pitched five innings (3 runs, 5 hits over five innings) in 6-3 loss. And Julian Tavarez continues to be as consistent as any Sox starter with nice performance (7 shutout innings). The Sox are in very good place right now and there isn't a bad decision. I'll give Hansack the nod.

As you mentioned "he's the hottest pitcher so far", has 23 Ks in the last 24 innings. Want to see him pitch again, hopefully it'll be a good show. Granted his last start wasn't that good, but still would like to give him another start or two. Besides, the weather's warmer and I'm sure he'll pitch better this time out. If not Hansack, then Kason Gabbard would get my nod for the start(s). He was rather impressive in his last big league start. I’d like to see Hansack get the start(s).
