just when i tried to make my peace with it...
i read *this* on Surviving Grady:
JD Drew
Positive spin: Should add a solid bat to the line-up. Career number are 286/393/512/905 with 30+ double and 25+ HR potential.
Negative spin: In half of his seasons as a major-leaguer, he's played in less than 110 games. He is often injured and hasn't produced the RBI numbers one would expect. And he is ofen injured.
Summary: Money aside, this deal still hinges on Manny. Hitting in the fifth spot, Drew would be a huge addition, if he has to hit third or fourth, this could be a disaster. Side note - don't let the guy wear #7, he's coming into town under fire as it is, don't add to the pressure. Finally, why is he "JD" if his name is David Jonathan?
Julio Lugo
Positive spin: Ahhh, friends with David Ortiz?
Negative spin: Lots of errors.
Summary: This reeks of player infatuation ala Edgah. I'm not buying into "needing production from the SS position" argument. If that were the case, bring back Cabrera for less money and better fielding. And cool handshakes. I guess if the Sox are paying per error, A-Gon and Lugo make the same money?
can i just have Trot & A-Gon back now? please?
