Not to rain on anyone's parade,

ACCORDING TO COWLEY
excuse me, according to cowley BA will get a third straight start tonight, as JD will sit. glad to see ozzie has finally figured out which player on his bench he can actually trust to play competently (if only in seattle?). only took him a little over a month.
also: Anderson on his offense: “Even when I make outs, I know what I’m doing wrong, instead of looking at Walker with a blank look on my face.”
see? even BA doesn’t need a coach anymore.
well
let’s not start sucking BA’s dick too much. swishit will get upset. ozzie has been smart in how he’s used him, largely putting him up against pitchers he should be able to succeed against. not to mention the PR and defensive replacement use. but that’s good managing more than anything by ozzie.
and the sox have one old and injury prone player in right and another player with a significant injury history in left. jerry is down but he’s not dead and buried.
I like the comment on the last blog entry
“Mickey was my idol and Brian reminds me so much of him (runs like a deer), although he is not a switch hitter like Mickey.”
