It's a shame that we don't treat our veteran warriors with the respect they deserve. They may believe that we have forgotten about them, and the things that they have done for this team in the past. Well I'm not having it.
Listen and scroll to honor our heroes...
Cue it Puff...

EVERY STEP I TAKE.....MATT MANTEI
A true warrior that always knew he wanted to finish his career in Boston. He put everything he had on the table for this team. He was God-like on the mound feasting against right-handed hitting, and soon to be Hall of Famer

EVERY MOOOOOOVVVVVE I MAKE....HIPOLITO PICHARDO
Few could mention the Boston Red Sox and not have images of Pichardo's blazing fastball come to mind. Most remember Pedro Martinez lighting up the league during 2000-2001. It was Pichardo's arm though that was the most valuble in Boston over those two seasons.
I'LL MISS YOU

EVERY SINGLE DAAAAAYYYYY....JEREMY GIAMBI
Some people tend to forget that you beat out David Ortiz for DH back in early 2003. You hit a walk off against the Yankees and solidified yourself to Bostonians as a man with honor and respect for the game beyond all imagination.

EVERY TIME I PRAAAAAAAAYYYY...CASEY FOSSUM
We all know now Casey that you don't get the credit that you deserve. You will forever be loved as the true warrior that was the centerpiece of the package to get Curt Schilling. Despite the Red Sox best efforts to get you back in a package that would have been headlined by Hanley Ramirez and Jon Lester the Diamondbacks smartly declined, and traded you to Tampa Bay for Jose Cruz where you continued to dominate the Red Sox bats. To this day remains the worst trade the Red Sox ever completed

I'LL BE MISSING YOOOOUUUUUU... SHEA HILLENBRAND
Shea we know we never should have traded you. Yo had guts and were not afraid to speak your mind. A true conqueror you were, and you shall continue to tear it up in the Independent Leagues.
WE MISS AND LOVE ALL OF YOU RED SOX WARRIORS...
