Ortiz out “at least a month”

I didn’t quite get what the exact injury is--I’m away from my Tivo--but NESN is reporting David Ortiz has a partial tear of a wrist tendon and will be out “at least a month.” This isn’t good news for the Sox. Main beneficiaries should be Coco and Casey.

And there isn't the slightest bit of evidence that these kinds of "distractions" negatively impact the team, as even you seem to admit.

True, just as there really isn't evidence that they don't. There are anecdotes on both sides of the argument, each of which is nice but not really predictive nor definitive. I'd love to see something definitive either way... All I'm saying is I don't want the 2008 Boston Red Sox to be the case study.

As an aside... Ray, I like how you called BS on Lassus' generalization of your own comment. I'm sure that's not how you meant it, but it did make me chuckle.
