Bring back Kaps!

I'm dissapointed in [url=http://redsox.bostonherald.com/redSox/view.bg?articleid=89760]Payton[/url] being such a whiner. [url=http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2005/05/22/kapler_is_pining_for_a_return/]Mr Kapler[/url] never whined about being a fourth outfielder, and wants to come back. For that matter, if we are going to have a fourth outfielder complaining about playing time, why didn't we keep [url=http://sandiego.padres.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/team/player.jsp?player_id=150353]Dave Roberts[/url]?

OK, I've read more of the article, and he's being pretty cool about it. I _like_ Jay Payton a lot. I think he's fun to watch and a solid player... still, I'd rather see a guy happy with his job in that position, everyone except Eye Chart was happy with their job last year, (and maybe Pedro with being #2) and that's a big part of why they won. We need more teams like the Devil Rays... young guys, everyone is psyched to play baseball. Damn I like Carl Crawford. Almost as good a bang for [url=http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2027803]buck[/url] as Papi; possibly the second best deal in baseball. He's going to be MVP on that contract.
