(http://www.mlb.com/images/2006/03/07/JkMLu9SR.jpg) David Ortiz put on a hitting display vs. Venezuela Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 08, 2006, 08:13:02 am The Big Sloppy has been great. I fear a Mo Vaughn like departure from the game ultmately with that physique.
Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: MaineDolFan on March 08, 2006, 08:24:34 am Mo was an every day player, tho. 1B. All Papi has to do is swing the bat.
Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 08, 2006, 08:51:59 am Mo was an every day player, tho. 1B. All Papi has to do is swing the bat. This is true. Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: Pats2006 on March 08, 2006, 08:55:48 am I liked MO.
Papi is a monster. I think he will be as good as a Manny. Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: Pats2006 on March 08, 2006, 09:15:49 am The way he played in the post season the year the Sox won. I could not get over how many clutch hits he had.
The Sox got him for a deal to. When his contract ends he will sign for a shit load now. I would like to see him stay on the Sox but for him to be good they need to have a power hitter follow after him in the lineup (Manny) or they are just going pitch around him. I love watching the coaches scratch there heads trying to figure out how to pitch to Ortiz with Manny following, you walk Papi and Manny come up and hit a blast over the monster. Papi and Manny have to be the best back to back hitters in the MLB today. Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: raptorsfan29 on March 08, 2006, 03:53:12 pm What happened to Mo Vaughn,
Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: Denver_Bronco on March 08, 2006, 04:03:13 pm What happened to Mo Vaughn, I believe he was forced into retirement from the nagging either back or leg injury and the Mets wound up paying him a ton for years after his retirement.Title: Re: My boy Ortiz Post by: MaineDolFan on March 08, 2006, 04:50:47 pm Mo took a terrible spill walking into the dugout after he was signed by the Angels. He tripped on something that an equipment left on the top stair. In the fall he tore ligaments in his ankle, screwed up his shoulder and other things. He was never right again after that.
