The Replacements

The Boston Red Sox have added Julio Lugo and JD Drew to their lineup replacing Alex Gonzalez and Trot Nixon respectively. Right now, this seems like a wash to me. Perhaps Boston will be a little better. These players always seemed mediocre to me and Theo may have overspent, but maybe the Sox need players like these. To me, these guys get the job done. So, I'm satisfied.

Sidenote: We still need another middle infielder.

2007 Lineup:

1) Coco Crisp / Kevin Youkilis
2) Julio Lugo
3) David Ortiz
4) Manny Ramirez
5) JD Drew
6) Jason Varitek
7) Mike Lowell
8) Kevin Youkilis / Coco Crisp
9) ?
