And his shorter stroke might actually work to his advantage against power guys like Rivera. That was the cut fastball he drove to right field last night. He needs some work, but hopefully some time with the coaches during the season will bring out his potential.

At 27 years of age, Willie Harris has about as much potential as you or me. He is what he is. And I hope with his last start vs. Mussina, Tito realizes that he should only be used as a defensive replacement and a pinch runner.


What are the odds of this game being played for the folks in Boston? I'm contemplating wheter to go out and I've heard off an on that it might be rained out.
