He gets a uniform and paycheck, just like the rest of the roster.

I’d prefer him batting the way he is and being a DH than batting the way he is and being a sub-par first baseman (even though he could have played the first few years with the sox, he wasnt BAD, just wasnt great). And if you think he’s overpaid for what hes doing this year, then well… sorry.

Do we have a great deal of Red Sox lurkers in these parts?

LAME.

Keep protecting an overpaid, whining, prima donna that doesn’t even really play baseball. He just hits.

Close to complaining about something. I can’t wait.
