I have no explanation for why Ortiz is behaving the way he is.
Maybe he is like Funny Cide and no longer loves the game.
But then again I am a Boston homer!

Jason Bay has been dynamite, but I think that pitchers don't fear him like they do with Manny.
Texieria and the whole team for that matter has been much better since A-Rod has been back in the lineup. Like I said, not a knock against Bay, but he's no Manny.
