Boston Red Sox manager Terry Francona released his 2011 Opening Day Lineup for tomorrow’s game against the Texas Rangers.

  1. Boston Red SoxJacoby Ellsbury, CF
  2. Dustin Pedroia, 2B
  3. Carl Crawford, LF
  4. Kevin Youkilis, 3B
  5. Adrian Gonzalez, 1B
  6. David Ortiz, DH
  7. Mike Cameron, RF
  8. Jarrod Saltalamacchia, C
  9. Marco Scutaro, SS

SP – Jon Lester

I guess the only surprise here is the fact that J.D. Drew is not in the lineup. But considering the fact that Rangers starter C.J. Wilson is really tough on lefties, I can understand why Francona chose not to use Drew.
