Lowell Coming Back at Just the Right Time

Mike Lowell played in a rehab game as the DH for the Paw Sox last night and had 1 hit (2 run single) in 5 at bats. With Casey likely going on the DL Lowell may come up to the Red Sox instead of playing 2 more rehab starts in AAA. Look for Lowrie to start at third tonight with Youk at first. Lowell could be the reserve corner infielder for a few games with some pinch hits. The Sox may also go with Big Papi at first so Lowell can DH a game later in the series.
