Roy Oswalt wants to make a decision this week on where he will pitch in 2012. According to most reports,
the Red Sox are still in the mix to sign the 34-year old right-hander (159-93 lifetime). However, the apparent injury to Roy Halladay's shoulder makes a return to the Phillies the likeliest scenario. The Rangers, Orioles and Dodgers also have interest. Considering the uncertainty surrounding both Buchholz and Bard, the Red Sox could use a stabilizing force like Oswalt to wedge between the Beckett/Lester combo and the amazingly consistent youngster, Felix Doubront. Bard could then be sent back to the bullpen, where he might regain his triple-digit velocity.
