THE SETUP
Sweep? Did someone say sweep?
One final round vs. the tomahawk choppers today, and it could bring, finally, the PBC's first sweep of the season. But first, Todd Tomczyk's weekly update will be at 11:15 a.m., and Ben Cherington will meet with we reporters in the press box -- first time in person! -- at noon.
I've got this one solo, while Alex heads to New York to cover the four over there with the Mets.
