Default I think Big Papi is winning me over - even if I don't want him to
Never a fan of the DH, I do recognize Ortiz's value to his team even in a thoroughly lost season. Best DH ever has to be between him and Edgar.

While HOF election has thus far eluded Edger, I'm not sure Ortiz can be left out...and if he gets in, it may pave the way, not only for Edgar, but also for some of those with vague PED connections...so, I'm divided on whether or not I would want Big Papi in. Certainly, he is a HOF personality, a Red Sox HOFer and very well paid...should that be enough?


By the way, am I the only one that thinks it is a big deal that Wade Boggs's number is not retired?
