The Red Sox today optioned right-handed reliever Craig Hansen to Triple-A Pawtucket and called up yet another righty reliever, Bryan Corey.
Hansen was the losing pitcher in last night's 10-inning, 8-5 Yankee win. Hansen, who has struggled mightily lately, is 1-1 with a 6.60 E.R.A. since being called up in the spring.
Corey, is 1-1 with a 2.95 E.R.A. with the PawSox.
The Red Sox today do not have Kevin Youkilis in the starting lineup; he hurt his hand trying to field a wild pickoff throw from Curt Schilling last night. Eric Hinske is playing first base in his place.
The Yankees, meanwhile, are keeping Johnny Damon, Jason Giambi and Jorge Posada. They'll have Bernie Williams in center, Craig Wilson at first and Sal Fasano catching. Derek Jeter is in at designated hitter, with Nick Green starting at shortstop.

Ha ha! Look at the Red Sox trying to be good. No matter what you do you are still going to suck!
