Ellsbury

[Lord Papelbon]

First time I've seen him....He looks like a little kid, very small frame....

Jacoby (despite his weird name) looks to be a really good player. I see them trading Murphy away at some point. Ellsbury will be hitting Pawtucket this year and if Crisp has a substandard year, I see him taking over CF in '08 or '09. Sorry, Willy Mo.

He's got speed and pop. Or, as scouts are saying, he looks like a younger Johnny Damon. I expect big things out of him in the future...but for now, so far, so good.

I hope so. Like I said it was the first time seeing him. I never even saw a picture on the web so I guess I had a different impression in my head.

I did see him steal the base after being caught off base by the pitcher. Hopefully he develops into what everyone thinks he will..
