Current Sox Play

The Sox have been quite inconsistant as of late. Kind of how a month ago you would see the large majority of the Tampa Stands filled with members of Red Sox Nation. Now that Da Rays have proved to be a team worthy of note they has discovred that there is actually a team in Tampa-St Petes area to root for. I do like the way this divisional match up is taking on the face of a rivalry. The Yankees are old and they suck. So having two young teams fight over first in the AL east is great. JD Drew should be on the All Star Team. This guy has now shown why he was brought here. It started in the play offs and has carried into this season. Dustin plays huge and will also be an all star. Manny needs Ortiz back. He needs that protection in the line up. It also seems to me that Manny hits better when he is in left field. This DH thing is not for him yet. It is crazy to think that the Sox have 15 guys on the active roster all under the age of 28 and of 15 how many are pitchers----- Dice K, Beckett, Lester, Masterson, ManNy D, Pap, Pssibly Hanson- then you throw Clay in the mix--- Good times
