Over the last few weeks as the season is starting, the Red Sox are slumping but Jed Lowrie isn't. So far this season, Lowrie has gotten quite a few more appearances than most utility men. In these appearances, Lowrie is hitting .438 and was 2 for 4 with 2 doubles in Tuesday's 2-3 loss. Lowrie was penciled in for Wednesday's game v. the Rays at shortstop but the game was postponed. If Lowrie keeps up his average and adds some pop to his swing, he could very well be the Red Sox new starting shortstop in place of Scutaro. This would be great for the Sox because they would get to trade Scutaro for a reliever. Terry Francona is definitely recognizing Lowrie's good start:
"Jed's hitting about .480. We don't have a lot of guys hitting .480," Francona said. "[He] swung at a lot more balls out of the zone than we've seen,". "Maybe some of that's just early Spring Training, but he's a good hitter, and again, we've said that we're trying to find ways to get him in the game."
This is what Lowrie said about the beginning of the season:
"You know what? I'm not focused on that," Lowrie said. "There's enough anxiety in this game -- especially in the role I'm in right now -- to worry about that. I'm just going to continue to do the work, continue to do what I need to do to prepare myself, no matter what they ask me to do. Of course, that's the idea -- go out and make the most of every opportunity you get."
If you would like to share your opinion on who is the better shortstop, please comment.

I think Jed Lowrie is better because he basically is Scutaro except has more power.
