Default Big PopUp
The new name David Ortiz on the internet lately is ... Big PopUp.

I think we're a better team with Mike Lowell as the DH.

There ... I said it ... let the hate begin.

He's done as a big swinging slugger...as much as he is beloved it may be his last contract with the team. 2011 will be his last years if they bother to pick up his option for that year.

I'm not concerned with Papi, I'm concerned that we're paying a guy $14 million who rarely comes through in the clutch when we need him too.

Not true; he's still a big swinger, he's just not a slugger...........

There should be no hating on you for saysing what you said; when a guy is done, he's done, end of story.

When you come in the game as a pinch hitter with runners on the idea is to swing the bat. he takes 3 pitches and then pops up the 4th. With no runners on and needing a run fine ... take a few pitches and try to get on. But his role as a PH was to swing the bat ... he failed.

We have been reduced to rooting for Adam La Roach ... he sucks too.

I'm inclined to agree with you. Frankly, in terms of decreasing expectations, I'm more perplexed by Jason Bay's lengthy feeble performance. It's far beyond the usual "dry stretch." As one who was looking for Theo to lock Bay up a while ago, I have to confess that I'm now not sure that should happen. Theo has been either good or lucky on this one, but I honestly don't care which.

Jason Bay's been stinking up the joint this month, and in June he hit 0.230 with a 0.301 OBP.

The Boston media hasn't been hysterically covering this, because he isn't some big Black dude.

And there it is, it's a racial thing. Arrest him!
