With you--that's why I posted this in the Big Papi thread.
I do, however, admire your economy of both words and keystrokes in communicating your point.

Re: Ortiz out at least a month
I'd say Chris Carter before him. I dunno, tough call.

Re: Ortiz out at least a month
I'd love to see either Barry Bonds or Chris Carter given a chance.
My preference: immediately give Chris Carter a few at bats and start talking with Barry Bonds' agent, whomever it currently is. If Carter starts his MLB career batting .300/.400/.500, cool off on Bonds; if Carter hits a more reasonable .280/.350/.440, give Bonds a chance to show the city where he swore he'd never play what he can do.

Re: Ortiz out at least a month
Are you forgetting how important team chemistry is?
Barry Bonds makes Coco Crisp sad, and Jacoby feel bad about himself.

No. Given my post, you know exactly how important I see it as being.

Let's try Carter first, though.

Re: Ortiz out at least a month
If they sign Bonds I'm personally driving to Boston to slap the shit out of Epstein while John Henry laughs like a school girl.
I heard per ESPN they're going to attempt to let it heal naturally for a month and see if it'll straighten itself out. Really though I'm optomistic on the issue, I think he'll heal on his one, and I'm really not concerned with him out of the lineup.

Re: Ortiz out at least a month
Probably Manny DH, Coco CF and Jacoby LF. And call up Carter maybe. No matter how much of a good idea it is, I highly doubt the Sox sign Bonds.

Why, exactly?

You're probably right on all counts.
FWIW, Carter would benefit by sitting down vs. LHP...Manny could DH those games.

Well they won't sign him for the sole reason they won't want all the negative publicity that'll follow him, especially with his most recent indictments. No team wants that.
But you're right it'll probably be Manny DHing. Makes the most sense.

Re: Ortiz out at least a month
Without Ortiz in the lineup, the offense will have big problems in those games that Crisp plays.
What about a lefty[righty platoon of Bailey and Moss?
