I was looking at Lars as well. Supposed to have great power potential, I wonder if he will move quick enough to take advantage of the Sox hole at 1B?
There has been a hole at first for the Red Sox since Mo Vaughn left after the 1998 season. Lars is, what 3 years away at the earliest, maybe 4. So first could be open or DH could be open. At this point the red sox aren't worried about blocking him and you shouldn't be either.

Lincoln has been bothered by a forearm strain and irritation in his right elbow, putting him on the shelf for 2-4 weeks. There's a possibility that these issues are merely symptoms of ligament damage.
