<t>If I was running the club, I'd start out with Harrison as the every day starter at 2B with Frazier as his his primary sub starter for his off days. And I'd be getting Frazier starts elsewhere (OF, SS, maybe 3B) especially against RHSP. If Harrison showed any signs of having his typical poor plato...

<t>Frazier won't take the 2B job from Harrison. I do think he will (and has) earn(ed) himself 350-400 ABs this year. And that will be a good thing for the team. He's already a much better bat than Harrison against RHP. I think he'll move around though. He should get his starts at 2B and in the OF al...

<t>If Santana continues to perform well, he will be one of the guys in line to come up and fill a spot if someone in the BP (I'm not naming Jared Hughes by name here) performs miserably or gets hurt or gets traded. I'm sure he'll be up in Sept when rosters expand. I expect him to make the roster nex...

<t>I lived in/near Boston for many years and went to a lot of games at Fenway but none in the last 10 years.  I started in college when a bleacher seat was $3, and we'd drink our way through a warm, spring afternoon.  Enough nostalgia.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> The city is small and very walkable.  I'l...

The dream is over. :'(

<r>Man, the 2nd 10 (11-20) is really filled with guys on the way down and raw potential. There are possible MLB players, for sure, but the upside guys need a whole lot to go right to see the majors. I feel like I have less enthusiasm for the guys we're voting on at this point than I have in recent y...
