The Big Sloppy has been great. I fear a Mo Vaughn like departure from the game ultmately with that physique.

Mo was an every day player, tho.  1B.  All Papi has to do is swing the bat.

I liked MO.

Papi is a monster. I think he will be as good as a Manny.

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.

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.

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.
