All the obvious Red Sox choices, such as my user name, but I want to name my non-Sox favorites.
Pedro Martinez and Nomar Garciaparra are probably my two favorite players ever, even though they left.
I try and tune into watch Carlos Zambrano's starts everytime they are on WGN or ESPN because he is the most exciting pitcher since Pedro.
I love Huston Street, closer for tha A's, just the way he gets guys out.
I like Marcus Giles, Mark DeRosa and Wes Helms among current big leaguers because I watched them when they were minor leaguers in Richmond.
I root for local guys from Virginia like Justin Verlander, Sean Marshall (whose brother was released by the Sox), David Wright, Brandon Inge and Sean Casey.
Retired favorites include Otis "the old man" Nixon who had a stint with the Sox in 1994, but played mostly with the Braves and Twins, Rich Garces, as well as BJ Surhoff.
Manny Ramirez has played in every Major League Baseball game I have ever been to.
