That means monster first half and the only reason the Sox were bearable for most of the season. Guys like Bogarts, Napoli, Craig, Ortiz and Nava just didn't get it done. He may not have a spot on this roster (absolutely moronic if the Red Sox let a utility guy like him go), but he'll land somewhere and play. He's a gamer and he's got talent.
and im assuming ortiz is sticking around for at least 1 more after this

I'd take him over Nava in a heartbeat. But the book thing works both ways. He saw a lot of pitching in the second half that he didn't in the first. The fact he was able to do so well immediately was pretty amazing. I'm not saying he's superstar caliber, but I'd like to see what he could do with a full season. I think he only played in 110 games or so last year. (04-12-2015, 07:26 PM)Hofcollector Wrote: I agree with you for the most part. I'd take him over Nava in a heartbeat.
