I plan on sticking around as long as the trash talking is kept to a minimum. We already have a great head start. ;OD

With JD Drew out of the lineup, the sox are much stronger - should result in 1 or 2 less inning ending double plays.

I’ll be there. Here’s hoping that it stops raining.

With JD Drew out of the lineup, the sox are much stronger - should result in 1 or 2 less inning ending double plays. Twinkle Toes Varitek will pick up his share, though. He's a great man behind the plate, but up at it, he's a liability.

With JD Drew out of the lineup, the sox are much stronger - should result in 1 or 2 less inning ending double plays. I'll take Drew in the lineup as of late. He is 12/29, 6 BBs, .417 BA, 3 HRs, with 12 RBIs.
To: Red Steel
Oops JD Drew BA .417 = .414
To: Red Steel
He’s the only Sox hitter who struck out all 3 plate appearances against Sabathia this year.
