5/15: Homecoming King
What better way for Lester to right the ship than in front of his friends and family near his home of Puyallup, Washington? I look forward to an evening of Dave Roberts saying "Jakubauskus".
How many times have the Red Sox won their final postseason game?
In his first two seasons in the league, Pedroia has batted .317 and .326. It seems likely that Dustin can sustain these type of numbers because he has such a high contact rate, and plays in a park that aids in his production. There are several legit candidates to compete with. And the "batting title" has kind of lost its luster to an extent in today's On base percentage-world.
If leaving 12 men on base isn't any indication that David Ortiz needs to be moved down in the lineup, well then, what is?
