FOR THE RED SOX, IS JD DREW A BIGGER FREE AGENT BUST THAN JULIO LUGO WAS?

Now that Julio Lugo is no longer a member of the Boston Red Sox, does that make JD Drew the teams most current free agent bust?

At 34 years of age, JD Drew is making $14 Million Dollars this year. In return, he is htting only .241 with an on base percentage of .365. Granted he has 12 home runs but these are hardly impressive numbers considering the contract the Red Sox gave him. In his first two season in Boston, Drew ’s batting averages had been .270 and .280 and has not had a season to date with 20 or more home runs since joining the Sox.

If there was ever a time that the Red Sox needed him to get hot, it is right now. With the sox lead dwindling in the Al East and with the rest of the lineup in a funk, it is time for JD to get hot and get this lineup moving agan.

Otherwise, maybe the Sox need to find a right handed hitting right fielder to platoon with their $14 Million Dollar man????
