Or he is hurt - or his regime as the clutchest hitter in Sox history is over.
Coming back to Lowell - I think it is easier to move him in the offseason. May be we can get Texeria and move Youk to 3rd. I like Bay - but he is not Manny. We need a real slugger - like Adam Dunn. Though he is not even close to Manny in terms of clutch.
Thanks for the intro ORS. Last years offense was just good enough and the team was lucky enough to somehow hold on the Yankees and get the homefield advantage against Cleveland. Lucky is nice - but I don't count on that all the time. The team also got great spark from Ellsbury in the play-offs. I think we have opportunities to improve in the line-up.
I have been pretty consistent here in spite of all the insults that we lack a power bat this year. And if the Sox wins it all and makes me a fool of myself - I will be the happiest one.
Heard on the way home in ESPN 1050 :
The MRI is out and the Yankees are not talking. Joba is scheduled to see Dr Andrews tomorrow,
That can't be good for the kid or the Yankees.
Bring back Igawa:thumbsup:
