CINCINNATI -- Julio Lugo has been scratched from an already thin Red Sox lineup. He is said to be suffering from an upset stomach.

Alex Cora is replacing him at shortstop. He'll bat seventh.

So the Red Sox bench now includes Lugo (upset stomach), Jason Varitek (strep throat) and Manny Ramirez (hamstring). The only healthy body off the bench manager Terry Francona can turn to is rookie outfielder Brandon Moss.

Is Sean Casey out too? Shouldn't he be available off the bench?
