February 1, 200818 yr Will the Red Sox use Casey as a DH? Youkilus trade or is he going somewhere? Ortiz?
February 1, 200818 yr Good for Casey. He'll definitely have a great chance at getting to the World Series.
February 1, 200818 yr :cry::cry::cry: Never wanted to root against him but....... :thumb: I am with you on this one, it is going to be tough watching "the Mayor" in a Boston uni. Casey is one of my favorte players. The Red Sox have good one. I can say that I hope that he has a great year and the Red Sox finish behind the Yankees in the division and playoffs.
February 1, 200818 yr At $700,000 per season I would be the bench. My son will be glad to hear this. He likes the Red Sox and of course Casey.
February 1, 200818 yr Good for Casey. He'll definitely have a great chance at getting to the World Series. He got to the World series with Detroit 2 years back.
February 1, 200818 yr I bet he is there in case Youk gets hurt and to pinch hit in certain situations.
February 1, 200818 yr I bet he is there in case Youk gets hurt and to pinch hit in certain situations. Youkilis is also a solid thirdbaseman so it gives them a chance to give both he and Lowell a day off here and there. I'm not sure how badly he was needed but for what he's being paid it is a solid bat off the bench.
February 1, 200818 yr No longer a fan... That's sad too...Why should he be judged by what team he is on? Why can't he be judged as a the player and person he is. To say someone isn't a fan because they went to a different team is ridiculous. He is a really good player and has a great personality along with a big heart. He needed a job and Boston offered why should he lose fans over that?
