I was at the game where Ventura hit 2 grand slams. He was always booed mercilessly in Arlington due to the Ryan incident; he finally shut the crowd up, if only for a game.
Ricky has to go, and I don't say that just because of the boneheaded handling of the bullpen last night. He simply isn't the person to take the Sox to the next level.
74th my left nut, Frank is easily in the top 50. He got screwed by playing so much of his career in the roid era. Normalize for that and you’ve got a completely different calculation.
