I don't know if I'd call Doug Mientkiewicz the primary first baseman on the roster. Kevin Millar anyone? Yes, Dougie was brought in as a defensive substitution later in all four of the games, and Ortiz did start start at first in the two games in St. Louis, but Millar did start at first at both Fenway games and he was the primary bat brought off the bench to pinch hit in St. Louis. Personally, I'd quantify Millar as the starting first baseman for the '04 team if not one of the crucial components in the clubhouse, at the very least he deserves some sort of mention.

Trot Nixon is a great man. I do not believe he would have done such a thing. Nice try though. Your still bitter about the '04 world series,GET OVER IT!

Entertaining. Loved it. Good writing. Still curious about what happened to Cards OF??? The Sox still have 4 players from '04 (and I quick counted 14 from '07). How many of the '04 boys are still with the Cards in any capacity? You have Julio. Do the Sox have a Cardinal anywhere in the system?
