Acting GM Mike Port on radio during game: Thinks that Varitek, Nomar, and Pedro have all passed the major health test…they will exercise with caution, but Pedro will be the starter on opening day…he doesn’t think Offerman will have a problem playing the outfield…nothing major on the trade front, if a team offers the right deal however, they will jump on it…they will look to improve the club during the season if need be…a very good indicator about Pedro…he is always smiling, if he’s really hurting, Pedro would pout…
