Alex Katz writes a tremendous piece on the right fielder of the Boston Red Sox, one of the most polarizing players in baseball.

Once people actually get to know him, their generalizations and past prejudices vanish instantly. They see that the emotionless demeanor is all part of his makeup, just as the money disputes and injuries are all part of the game.

I recommend everyone check this out, especially the haters.  Maybe it won’t completely sway your opinion (especially if you are the type of fan who gets hung up on salary amounts), but at the very least, it might cause you to think about J.D. Drew differently.
