His youthful vision of turning the Red Sox into a "$100 million player development machine" has become a delightful reality (though the $100 million part turned out to be something of a conservative estimate). It is ironic that the lifelong Red Sox fan is thefranchise's first GM that we're aware of who doesn't allow his judgment tobe clouded by sentiment. 3. Dustin Pedroia: Remember when Nomar Garciaparra was young, before the wrist injury and the bitterness? Remember when he played with such intense, absolute passion and seemed to scorch a line drive every time he came to the plate? Remember when he was the face of the franchise and every ball-playing kid in New England had his mannerisms down pat? That's Pedroia right now. And man, what a joy it is to behold again. 4. Jon Lester: There's been a lot of talk this offseason regarding possible contract extensions for Pedroia, Kevin Youkilis, and Jonathan Papelbon. Lester, an amalgam of Andy Pettitte, Bruce Hurst, and Chuck Finley, should also be getting such consideration after putting his name on the short list of baseball's best lefthanders last season. 5. Terry Francona: The ideal manager for this team, in this town, at this time -- and in my opinion, the best in the game, even if his loyalty to the Timlins of the universe is sometimes maddening. The Red Sox are fortunate to have him, and the miserable among us who take delight in bashing him will miss him when someone else is occupying the hot seat. 6. Josh Beckett: You tell me if he's spent more time this offseason working out like a maniac or crushing Bud cans on Mike Timlin's forehead in a hunting blind somewhere, and I'll tell you whether he's more likely to duplicate 2007 (21 wins) or 2008 (12 wins, a string of nagging injuries). My hunch is that he's coming back with a vengeance. 7. David Ortiz: Papi's five most similar players through age 32: 1) Jason Giambi. 2) Carlos Delgado. 3) Mo Vaughn. 4) Lance Berkman. 5) Fred McGriff. Honestly, I'm not really sure how to interpret that in terms of how it bodes for his future, so do with it what you will. 8. Daisuke Matsuzaka: Sure, those five-inning, 115-pitch starts can be exhausting to watch, but more often than not he makes it work for him. Two years into that famous $52 million deal, he's been a bargain on the field (33 wins), and you can't put a price on the cachet he's given the Red Sox in Japan. 9. Kevin Youkilis: Youuuuukkkk made himself into an offensive force through hard work and sheer determination, and his ability to play both first and third is invaluable -- I can't imagine even Billy Beane thought he'd become this good. But I do wonder if he's as untouchable as some might think. He'll be 30 by Opening Day, and his value has never been higher. 10. Jonathan Papelbon: He became such a vital and identifiable member of the ball club so quickly that you almost think of him as a member of the '04 champions, forgetting that he was Single A then. He owns a career 1.84 ERA, a 0.93 WHIP, and a natural gift for interpretive dance. 11~20: Larry Lucchino, Tom Werner, Jason Bay , Justin Masterson, Jacoby Ellsbury, Janet Marie Smith, Bill James, Craig Shipley,Mike Dee, Clay Buchholz 國內... http://tw.news.yahoo.com/article/url/d/a/081130/78/1abr1.html 大家好 我是一個小小咖@ @ 喜愛的是小帥哥、松土反跟寶貝碰@ @(被隊友整的那一段很有趣XD) 老爹跟Lester也很喜歡~ 請多指教m(_ _)m -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 58.114.128.54 ※ 編輯: wangbow 來自: 58.114.128.54 (11/30 17:05)
