D-Lowe Off to L.A.
Derek "chops" down the A's in the 2003 ALDS
Well in what's been a familiar action for me this World Series Winter, I'm saying goodbye and thanks to two great contributors to the Boston Red Sox. Lowe played every role a pitcher could for the Sox, and in general, he did it well for us. I would have loved seeing him back for us, ecsp. with his unreal postseason pitching. However, he was sub par all year round and had gotten a lot of run support over the last few years. He should fit in well over in LA and at least him and Petey are in the NL now! So thanks for closing those games out, thanks for being a mental gidget, thanks for dressing up like Pedro, thanks for throwing fits on the mound, thanks for throwing that no-hitter, and for Game 5 of the 2003 ALDS, Game 3 of the 2004 ALDS, Game 7 of the ALCS, and of course Game 4 of the World Series. Thanks D-Lowe your time in Boston was up, but I hope you chew up the N.L. Cheers.
Oh, and how 'bout getting up for a round of applause for Pokey filling in for "Mr. Sitting on the Bench in N.Y." last year Pokey, there just wasn't any room for ya', but the leather you flashed was breath taking, and you were perfect for us. Kick some ass.
