Throw'em the heater, Joshie!
Despite maybe some jet lag from racking up the early season frequent flyer miles, The Red Sox have to feel good about themselves heading into the 2008 season.
Coming off a successful year, laid back, mind on their money, money on their mind.
Bottom line: Are the Red Sox still hungry?
Here are two early predictions...
Josh Beckett: Was the ultimate gamer last season. But can a spike in popularity and an air of complacency lead to a Ricky Vaughn-Major League II performance this season? Will baseball become his second job? Maybe Beckett, while on a road trip out west, will decide to just play bass guitar for a 90s alternative rock band named "GuyHat?" -- I'm just saying. "The Ace of Bass" -- I saw the sign.

Manny Ramirez: Will open up a sports bar IN the Green Monster called "Manny's." He'll run the joint with David Ortiz. Mike Lowell will bartend and make at least a grand a night, making him very tired during day games.
