ST. PETERSBURG -- All the options have been weighed. The meetings have been held. And the decision is in.
Just prior to Saturday's game with the Devil Rays, Red Sox manager Grady Little finalized his pitching rotation for the Division Series against the A's.
Tim Wakefield will get the nod for Game 2 in Oakland on Thursday, while Derek Lowe is slated for Saturday's Game 3 at Fenway Park.
Little will hold off on announcing a Game 4 starter, but it's certainly possible that ace Pedro Martinez -- who draws the series opener Wednesday -- could come back on three days' rest if the Sox are trailing in the best-of-five series.
