Ted approves....

Where there is much desire to learn, there of necessity will be much arguing, much writing, many opinions; for opinions in good men is but knowledge in the making.
- John Milton

I like to think I am simultaneously mature and enlightened enough to see the reasoned arguments on both sides of this while simultaneously immature enough to think almost everything about this story is funny.
- Super Nomario

Pedroia: David is fine. He's our teammate and we believe in him. It could have been me who hit into a double play. It is 60 at-bats. A couple of years ago I was hitting .180 [I forget the exact number] and everyone wanted to kill me. What happened?
Reporter: MVP
Pedroia: Laser show!

"Let there be joy in baseball again, like in the days when Babe Ruth chased an enemy sportswriter down the streets of Boston and ended up getting drunk with him on the waterfront and came back the next day munching on hot dogs and boomed home runs to the glory of God."-- Jack Kerouac, 1959

"I had a dream last night where one of the ancillary background happenings was that Sam Cassell signed with the Suns and it was announced on Sportscenter. I was disappointed until a pack of dogs came along and entertained me by juggling miniature torches. I know it had to be a dream, because I never watch Sportscenter."

"But I must have the confidence and I must be worthy of the great Penny who does all things perfectly even with the pain of the fraying of a rotator cuff in his shoulder."

As Jose recalls from his ninth grade English class, pretty much all of literature, ergo all of human narrative, falls into one of four archetypes: romance, tragedy, comedy and satire. Jose is hard pressed to come up with anything that crosses into all four categories, save the romantic tragicomic farce of Manny Ramirez. --Jose Melendez

Interesting that they're moving Ellsbury up to 2nd in the lineup with a LHP on the mound.

Although looking at the stats, Miller has a big reverse split this year, so maybe that's the logic there. But given that, why Baldelli over Drew?

I'm assuming that Emilio is playing 3B. Otherwise I predict a lot of doubles.

So what's the over/under on getting a single run today? - BowdenHype

Tito says Drew is fine, but with four straight RHP coming up he wanted to get Rocco in a game.

I'm fairly sure Drew is probably not 100% anyway, considering that he got a cortisone shot like 2 weeks ago.

In response, Veeck threatened to request an official ruling on whether Yankees shortstop and reigning MVP Phil Rizzuto was a short ballplayer or a tall midget.
