With a large sample of readers from around the world chiming in, a solid majority (58.6%) support Jon Lester being the Opening Day starter.
A little over one-third of the sample (34.3%) opt for Josh Beckett, and just 7.1% think Clay Buchholz should toe the rubber on April 5th. Interestingly, a lot of the non-U.S. vote tends to skew toward Beckett. We have no idea why that is, and invite any of our overseas readers to tell us the reason for their choice. You can still vote in the poll, no matter where on Earth you are, HERE.
