wtf having him play RF in fenway is just not fair to him. hes NOT A GOOD OF, but because of his speed he can *get by* in CF. im sure picking up the flight of the ball (which apparently is easier in CF) has a lot to do with it also, not just the awkwardness of playing a corner OF position.
i hate that people rag on him, when he has been mishandled by two organizations at this point.

I totally agree, he should not be made to play RF in Fenway. But he can only be expected to fill in in short stretches in CF, which is a shame because this kid with enough at bats could become a great slugger.
This team is just not a good fit for WMP. As the Sox picked up Ortiz and made him their DH, this is what should happen with him.
