  1. I assume Papi is the DH and Casey is at 1B right?

  1. Wow, we got two guys playing first base tonight huh! Another fine example of the great work done by Boston Globe scribes.

  1. I assume it is just a typo that Ortiz and Casey are both penciled in as playing first. Ortiz, in all likelihood, is DH ing.

  1. Hey, Nick, you have two 1st Basemen!

  1. Isn't Ortiz going to be the DH tonight? Or are he and Casey alternating or something?

  1. I assume the listing of Big Papi at 1B is a mistake.

  1. Puts a smile on my face to see the kid leading off tonight against the Yanks. Nothing against CoCo but I don't want to watch him play. There's been three players in my life that I really had to see. When I was a kid Jim Ed Rice was my favorite player, I would run into the room when he came up. Nomar was a player that I really enjoyed watching. Jacoby is already very special, I just think he's going to great.

  1. I assume Ortiz is DH not 1B.
