1. You're talking about a few series where Carl Crawford was missing, Darnell McDonald was hitting 5th, and we had Mike Cameron in the lineup. The lineup, even without acquiring Beltran, will be nothing like that come October in NL parks.
2. You cite 1 game in a 3 game series... They could of easily lost that game even with Ortiz. The entire team pretty much got shut down that day. You don't even mention the fact that the Sox scored 15 runs in the other game, and won 4-0 in the other... What's the point of even using that game in your arguement?
