Stern, Crisp, Youkilis. Youthful enthusiasm, speed, earnestness. This is gonna be a fun season.]
I like watching Beckett pitch, too, but boy does he have foul mouth. F this and f that when he's pumped up. I hope one of the adults speaks to him about it.
BTW, read Jerry Remy's Q and A column in the GLobe. Jerry and I are good buddies.

Which is more painful to watch, Wily Mo at the plate or Wily Mo in right field?
Most fun to watch? I'm guessing Gonzalez and Loretta in the field. That was a pretty cool double play.
But then there's Beckett, Papelbon, Crisp on first base, Youk's maturing bat, Stern's absurb success, and the promise of Pedroia, Delcarmen, Hansen and Lester playing regularly by the end of the summer. Fascinating stuff.
That double play was something I'd never seen before. I think Loretta may have batted the ball to Gonzales intentionally. And I liked Youk's over-the-shoulder.
Wily Mo needs playing time and at-bats. He should go to Pawtucket when crisp is back.
By the way, if you'd have told me last fall that the '06 Red Sox would have Josh Beckett, Coco Crisp, Wily Mo Pena, Mark Loretta, JT Snow, Mike Lowell, Julian Tavarez, Dustan Mohr and (eventually) Hee Seop Choi playing in the spring, I might have died of excitement. But then, I like to play baseball (and football) video games just to blow up and reconstruct rosters, so it's sort of right down my alley.
