This is my prediction for the opening day 25 man roster. 

I'm not sure if they'll use the 14th batter on Josh Reddick or on an infielder.

Over the Monster Jose Iglesias

This Cuban shortstop is known for his defense, but is showing signs of offense.  He already has a couple hits, including a three run double in spring training.  When will he make his Red Sox debut?  Also I am confused about how these Cuban players come into the MLB.  What is the difference between these guys and the guys that do not make it in?  Someone fill me in please.

I am excited to watch him play.

Over the Monster Who is First Half MVP?

Out of the Red Sox offensive players, who is the MVP for the first half?

Dustin Pedroia's average is down from last year but has 30 doubles and 65 runs.

Jason Bay's average continues to drop but leads the league with 72 RBI's and is seventh in the league in Home Runs.

Jacoby Ellsbury right now has the highest average on the team and is second in the league with 40 stolen bases.  Run production is his biggest problem but it also has to do with his spots in the lineup changing.

Kevin Youkilis had an incredible april and may but june and july for him has been a disaster.  He still has had unreal run production for the amount of at bats and games he has. 

To me no one else on the offensive side of the ball qualifies.
