I think the Red Sox organization will get to the point where they realize he simply isn't an everyday player. And that's fine' date=' but he's an exceptional super-utility guy who can kill lefties. Give him a good amount of time off, and I bet he'll be fine. Both this shoulder injury, and his wrist injury in 2008 only got worse because he was trying to play through them.[/quote']

 

Very good point. I forgot about Jed.

Lowrie is Tim Naehring. Talented, even awesome, but can't stay on the field consistently.

Hopefully that'll turn into less of a problem if we bump him into a utility/platoon role. The kid absolutely rapes lefties. Plus, if Iggy ever gets up with the big club, it'll be nice to get Lowrie's bat in the lineup against left-handers and spell Jose's rather unimpressive bat.
