Red Sox Shuffle

By Joe McDonald
BOSTON -- Red Sox manager Terry Francona has always said the club is better when Jacoby Ellsbury is batting in the leadoff spot.

But in the home opener today against the New York Yankees, Sox left fielder Carl Crawford will hit first, and Ellsbury has been dropped down to the eighth spot.

No one circles the wagons like the Tito Francona. I love this move, get crawford up there swinging for contact, not trying to drive people in, get a-gone more at bats, and get Ellsbury the fuck away from anything other than straight, unadulterated, fast balls. 1-6, here we come. Also, I see the sox designated Dennys Reyes for assignment and called up doubront to be their lefty go to guy...it's about time, just because you look like el guapo doesn't mean you are el guapo.
