PrintI don't know why, but I find this video absolutely hilarious:
Lester: "That's for not being Mark Kotsay!"
I like how Wilkerson kind of walks around and then decides to leave the cage. It's like he was actually contemplating charging the mound. Now THAT would have been hilarious.

I have a funny feeling that Brad Wilkerson is going to have a year like David Ortiz in 2003.
"We're not going to give up," It doesn't happen, so who cares? There's always next year. It's not like it's the end of the world."
Well, David was released by the Twins as not being good. And Pena was never given a chance until he went to Tampa, and look what he did. And all three have similar stats in the beginning of their careers, with Wilkerson’s being a bit better.

I don't see the similarities
Ortiz was a good player with the Twins, but never given at bats. When he got to the Sox, at age 26, he got AB’s and broke out. Wilkerson was a very good player early, got hurt, then was terrible. So Ortiz had a constantly improving game, while Wilkerson has fallen off a cliff. I don’t really see any similarities. Oh, and Brad Wilkerson turns 32 this year. Break out seasons for guys that age is rare. I expect very little of Wilkerson this year and would prefer one of Carter or Bailey on the big club.
Actually
I came on to post…if given a chance, I have a feeling he is going to have a break year.
On a side note…Wilkerson, take it like a MAN…get up there and bat again…I would (not)!!!
~ ROLL TIDE ~
GO SOX!!
I wonder
if Lester apologized? Wonder how that conversation would have gone?
“Sorry, Man”
“So you don’t want me here either? Why the hell did I sign with the Sox? Should have gone to the Yanks to compete for CF there”
Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.
