btw, manny d doesn't suck either

just because he gave up a grandslam on one pitch, doesn't mean MannyD's off to a bad year. When Big Papi hits a grandslam, it never even enters our minds that the pitcher stinks. We know that Papi can hit in the clutch. And so can Frank Thomas. MannyD is in better shape than 2007 and has a year of experience behind him. He will have a fantastic year, and so far he has, if you can just erase that one pitch from your memory. Poor guy. I'm sure that's his nightmare -- called in with bases loaded and Frank Thomas at bat... if it didn't give him nightmares, it certainly will now!
