The Goodness Lives On

Pretty much everyone was awesome today. After a 9-0 win, how could they not be? Homeruns coming from Ellsbury, Pedroia, Drew, and Crisp + fantastic pitching from Beckett and the bullpen = another win.

Potentially Good News (But Let's Not Get Our Hopes Up): David Ortiz is making progress as he heals the torn tendon sheath in his left wrist, and the hard cast, running from elbow to hand, could come off his left arm as soon as this week. "The pain is actually gone, which is good news," said Red Sox manager Terry Francona.
I miss Ortiz but I am pretty amazed by everyone (especially Mr. Drew) playing so great in his absence. What a team we have here!
