Manny Ramirez, LF

Fast fact: Hit .366 against lefthanders on the road; the rest of the team hit .249.

Lowdown: Ramirez, who is just 10 home runs shy of joining the exclusive 500 club, may have fallen short offensively (by his standards) last season, but his .389 average in September and October and a .348 average and four home runs in the postseason bodes well. Ortiz seems to believe -- that should be enough.
