Let’s See It, Kid

Ellsbury in; Crisp out

Loyal Puppy Francona has benched Coco Crisp for Jacoby Ellsbury in the biggest game of the season. His tendency to stick with the Vets is well documented (see Millar, Kevin), which makes me wonder if this decision came from above. I’d give a digit (well, a toe) to know the details of the Front Office-Tito relationship.

The media has been pining for this since the Sox started losing — not entirely incorrectly, as Coco has limped to a 3-21, 0 BB line in the ALCS. What did you expect?

I’m excited to see what the kid can do. No pressure. Just an elimination game. Let’s see if he’s got the stones.

    At my last check Boston was leading Cleveland 4-1 at the top of the third. It’s 9:20 pm here, and I have to get my boring ass to bed. So I’ll just say this:

    GO SOX! WOO HOO!

    Thank you…and good night.

    three things:

    1) jd drew is christ for a day

    2) curt schilling is a hall of famer

    3) the boston red sox will win the world series this year

    these three items are facts.

    Jimmy, if JD Drew is Christ for a day…do you mean like a calendar day or a 24 hour period?

    ‘Cuz I’ve got a bunch of bottles of water in my basement left over from the Y2K scare…I’d really like to have them turned into wine.

    You guys don’t mind if I (kidnap) borrow him for a while, do you?
