Like they know what they are doing. Please keep worrying about the Red Sox .......... and somebody else will beat you. I enjoy it when Yankee fan critiques other teams.

While my beloved Yankee has been know to make some stupid choices If I'm a Boston Fan I'm getting nervious. I do not see that Theo is in charge, this is not his spending or talent style. Who's calling the shots up there in Bean Town? I get dizzy watching Boston operate, not that I’m a fan of their’s by any means but

The first two batters can set the table and finally some speed ( Lugo and Crisp) Papi and Manny for power, then D.L. Drew ( he should get a lot of good pitches here ). After that it's Lowell and Youk - these guys both have high on base percentages - and throw in a Willie Mo Pena in the mix ...... you can see how he can filter in the mix and just be a player - not a superstar, which he is really not. Keep the pressure and media off of him and he may work out well. Yes – and with a better lineup this year – he should be able to just blend in.

I think the guy is a solid talent, even great sometimes, if he stays healthy. However, you're right, without Manny and Big Papi in the lineup, Drew doesn't have the personality to hang with that media. As a centerpiece, I think it's only a matter of time before this guy crumbles. As just a cog in the bigger picture, the guy can turn out to be a nice addition. -AS- Excellent points about Drew Bay24.

He is an upgrade from Trot because Trot got hurt every year also - but the Sox need this guy to stay healthy. If Manny goes .... this guy might just fold up. Then it will be a huge overpayment. If Manny stays - he hits well, plays good defense - well then it's worth the money. The money out there these days is stupid and out of control. What is it Monopoly money ?
